Amazon Bedrock capacity for built-in with overrides strategies
When configuring built-in with overrides strategies with CreateMemory or UpdateMemory, you must provide an IAM exeecution role
(memoryExecutionRoleArn). The AgentCore Memory service assumes this role
to perform Amazon Bedrock operations (such as LLM calls for memory extraction and/or
consolidation) within your AWS account.
Since Amazon Bedrock usage is attributed to your account, it consumes your allocated capacity and is subject to your Bedrock service quotas. If Amazon Bedrock calls are throttled due to quota limits, memory ingestion operations might fail.
Note
Amazon Bedrock usage is attributed to customer account only for custom memory strategies.
To monitor and troubleshoot these issues, enable log delivery on your memory configuration to observe error logs when ingestion failures occur. You can also request quota increases for the Bedrock models you're using to prevent throttling issues.
