Step 3: Deploy to AWS - Amazon Nova Act

Step 3: Deploy to AWS

Nova Act provides two deployment approaches depending on your needs.

Note

Your deployment to AWS is subject to AWS Service Terms and/or Customer Agreement (or other agreement governing your use of the AWS Service). Deployment creates AWS resources (AgentCore Runtime, ECR repository, S3 bucket) that incur separate charges. See Amazon Nova Act pricing for details.

Quick deployment to AWS with the IDE extension

For rapid deployment of individual workflows, use the Nova Act extension’s built-in deployment capability.

To deploy your workflow:

  1. Navigate to the Deploy tab in the Nova Act extension.

  2. Verify your AWS credentials with aws sts get-caller-identity . If needed, configure or update your credentials.

  3. Ensure your IAM Identity has a policy permitting read and write access to the Nova Act service (see AWS Managed Policies).

  4. Enter your workflow name and select your AWS Region.

  5. Click Deploy your workflow.

The IDE extension uses Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime to automatically package your script into a container image and deploys it to AWS, creating all necessary resources including ECR repositories, S3 buckets, and IAM execution roles.

Deployment to AWS with CDK templates

For production environments, the nova-act-samples GitHub repository contains ready-to-use examples for deploying Nova Act on various AWS compute services. Each example includes a complete CDK construct, Docker configuration, and test scripts.

These examples can serve as a starting point for building production systems tailored to your organization’s needs, including enhanced monitoring, infrastructure management, and security configurations.
