Executive Summary
Enterprises running workloads on AWS face rising complexity in ensuring reliability, compliance, and cost efficiency at scale. Manual operations create bottlenecks and risks, especially in regulated industries. AutonomousOps, an AI-powered automation platform, partnered with AWS to deliver intelligent agents that automate FinOps, SRE, Compliance, and DevOps functions.
Built on AWS-native services like CloudWatch, Config, GuardDuty, Security Hub, and Step Functions, the platform reduces manual intervention, accelerates incident response, ensures continuous compliance, and optimizes costs—all with a flexible “Agent Mode” for human-in-the-loop oversight. The result: customers achieve measurable reductions in operational overhead, improved resilience, and substantial cost savings.

Partner Solution
Solution Overview
AutonomousOps.ai deployed an agentic automation framework powered by AWS services. Multi-agent orchestration was implemented using ECS/EKS, with event-driven workflows built on EventBridge, Lambda, and Step Functions. A context engine leveraging Amazon Neptune and OpenSearch provided real-time decision support.
Agent Mode, surfaced in Slack/Teams via SNS, ensured human-controlled approval workflows. Security was reinforced through IAM least-privilege roles, KMS encryption, and GuardDuty integration. The solution enabled enterprises to scale operations, enforce compliance, reduce costs, and accelerate incident handling.
