What happened
Amazon says its Bedrock Managed Knowledge Base now supports single-shot RAG and retrieval-only requests through the AgenticRetrieveStream API. The setting maxAgentIteration now ranges from 0 to 5, so one API can handle simple and complex questions.
Why it matters
Applications can search once and answer quickly for direct questions, or plan several searches for multi-part ones. This helps companies that answer staff questions from their own documents.
What to do
- Check the Amazon Bedrock documentation for the new settings
- Test each mode on your own typical questions
