Today, AWS announces a research preview of aws-bench, an open-source benchmark that measures how accurately and efficiently AI agents complete real-world AWS tasks. Model providers and AI researchers building agents that operate on AWS infrastructure need an objective, reproducible way to measure performance and diagnose failures. aws-bench provides a public suite of test cases derived from analysis of real AWS usage, including investigation, troubleshooting, and infrastructure creation tasks.
Each test case pairs a natural-language query with a defined cloud resource state and a ground-truth answer, so you can score any agent or model on a consistent, verifiable basis. Researchers and model providers can use aws-bench to improve foundation model performance on AWS tasks, improve agent harnesses, and track improvement progress. The release includes an easy-to-use CLI tool to instantiate testing environments, execute and score evaluation runs, and reset resource state.
aws-bench is available now on GitHub. To get started, follow the setup instructions on the README.
