AI-powered EKS migration assessment with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore
Containers Blog
This article demonstrates how to build an AI-powered migration assessment agent using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore that automates evaluation of applications for Amazon EKS migration readiness.
- Agent analyzes source code, container artifacts, and dependencies to produce readiness scores, blocker lists, and migration plans
- Supports multiple source platforms: OpenShift, Azure, on-premises Kubernetes, WebSphere, JBoss, and Docker Swarm
- Uses foundation models on Amazon Bedrock for contextual reasoning beyond keyword matching to identify subtle blockers
- Integrates with Git repositories, accepts file uploads, or processes artifacts from Amazon S3
- Generates comprehensive reports with current state assessment, migration blockers, target architecture, effort estimates, and runbooks
- Supports follow-up questions via chat interface for context-aware answers without re-running analysis
- Built with Strands Agents SDK for extensible tool architecture and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory for cross-assessment learning
- Estimated cost per assessment: $0.18–$0.57; monthly infrastructure: ~$96
The solution enables platform teams to scale migration assessments across large portfolios, standardize evaluation criteria, and accelerate timelines by identifying blockers early.
