  Opened a support portal ticket on AWS. For a week, I heard nothing. contacted @AWSSupport by direct message and the issue was resolved in a matter of days. Their team still responds to thousands of queries every day. That's how genuine support appears. Thank you AWS!

  @AWSSupport @awscloud Dues cleared, reinstatement requested — still waiting with no movement. My production workloads are down and every hour is costing us. Can someone please prioritise this? Case ID ready to share over DM.

  Hey @awscloud @AWSSupport im trying Bedrock with root user and getting NOT_AUTHORISED error with 400. Tried support and the ai assistant couldn't find anything. Tried raising ticket, it asked me to upgrade support plan. Plan upgrade failing with error. Going nowhere #SOS

  AWS suspended my account for billing. I have zero due invoices and zero past-due invoices. Their own Amazon Q agent confirmed it in writing. P1 case 178635853400575, day 3, production still down. @AWSSupport what is the actual reason?

  @ajassy @AWSSupport what happened to customer obsession? I would like to invite you to review the interactions on AWS support case #178605390000779. There's no better way to put this, it's a sad joke. Reps don't appear to be incentivized to solve the problem nor to do the reading

  @yugacohler @awscloud @CoinbaseDev The post frames this as a new capability, but Amazon already gave agents the ability to make purchases in December 2025. The Coinbase integration is the expansion, not the invention. The real bottleneck was never payment rails. It's authentication and authorization at scale. How does an agent prove it's authorized to spend, and how do you prevent a single compromised agent from draining a wallet? Coinbase's infrastructure solves the custody and settlement problem. AWS solves the identity and access management layer. The combination is what makes this production-ready. The "AI agents will outnumber humans" framing is hype. The real driver is that agents need to pay for API calls, data feeds, and compute resources autonomously. That's a practical requirement, not a sci-fi scenario. Stripe being involved is the quiet signal here. They handle the merchant side of the equation. Agents paying for things requires both the payer and the payee infrastructure. The managed aspect matters more than the payments themselves. AWS handles the compliance, KYC, and fraud detection layers that would otherwise be a nightmare to build. That's the real value proposition.

  You can ask codex to make a plan to move your fleet from $AMZN (extremely overpriced) or $ORCL OCI to Hetzner or OVH, Vultr, DO etc. Save a ton. In theory this should hurt Amazon AWS margins. A lot. OTOH, I have been wrong about this for years. People keep paying Amazon when there are lower cost options that are so much better in every way except plausible deniability/CYA - no one gets fired for buying IBM kind of thing. @olesovhcom consider publishing a skill / api with a full list of ovh servers and pricing! Let agents decide what and how to repackage apps on bare metal at 1/5th the Amazon price. And fix your billing, so companies can buy.

  The Missing Primitive for Autonomous AI: Bounded Agent Payments 💳🤖 For the past two years, autonomous agent loops (like @OpenClaw, Hermes, or custom agent harnesses) have been missing a critical infrastructure piece: the ability to transact on demand without a human in the loop. When an agent hits a paywalled research endpoint, a paid search API, or an MCP server mid-execution, the entire loop freezes. Up until now, your options were: 1. Hardcode expensive subscription API keys upfront. 2. Freeze execution and wait for a human to manually pay. @awscloud and the OpenClaw Foundation just published a blueprint solving this via Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Payments and the ⁠#x402⁠ protocol. Here is how it works, why it matters, and the primary architecture use cases:

  @AWSSupport @kirodotdev @awscloud I’ve already raised a case explaining the entire issue. Case ID: 178664512400070. Unfortunately, I still haven’t received any genuine help, which is really disappointing. I’m not the only one facing this issue-many others are experiencing the same problem. Please look into this.

  Peter DeSantis talking at #agenticaisummit There will NOT be one AI chip type. If multiple AI chips take multiple years to bring to market, you have to be making assumptions about model requirements in that time frame. It's a systems problem, including the network.

  Let's take @Snowflake as an example. Working there gave me a clear view of the data problems hiding behind most ambitious AI roadmaps. Because Snowflake is natively deployed on AWS and available through the AWS Marketplace, it fits right into a modern stack. If you are building an AI feature, a sensible pattern looks like this: > Isolated customer events land securely in Amazon S3 from day one > Snowflake transforms raw data into a governed, usable layer > Flexible Amazon ECS compute routes only approved context to Amazon Bedrock Getting this pipeline right early means less time fixing data leaks and more time shipping AI features ↓

  Day 1 : "How to Scale an App to 10 Million Users on AWS" If I have to design a system for 10 million users, I won't build everything on Day 1 because it will add unnecessary complexity and cost. I'll start simple with one application server and one database. As traffic grows, if the server starts reaching its CPU, memory, or storage limits, I'll first scale vertically by moving to a bigger instance. Once that is not enough, I'll separate the backend and database so both can scale independently. To avoid a single point of failure, I'll deploy the application across multiple Availability Zones and put a Load Balancer in front so if one server or AZ goes down, traffic is automatically routed to healthy servers. As the number of users keeps increasing, I'll make my application stateless by storing sessions in Redis. This allows me to add multiple application servers behind the Load Balancer and scale horizontally. If my database starts getting overloaded with reads, I'll use Redis to cache frequently accessed data and add read replicas to distribute read traffic. For static assets like images, CSS, and JavaScript, I'll store them in Amazon S3 and serve them through CloudFront so requests don't keep hitting my application servers. If traffic suddenly spikes during sales or events, I'll enable Auto Scaling with CloudWatch metrics so AWS automatically adds or removes servers based on demand. As the application becomes larger, I'll split the monolith into microservices. This allows each service, like authentication, payments, or notifications, to scale independently instead of scaling the entire application. If the database becomes the bottleneck, especially for write operations, I'll use sharding or federation depending on the data and business requirements. Finally, when users are spread across the world, I'll deploy the application in multiple AWS Regions to reduce latency and improve availability. My approach is always the same: find the bottleneck, solve that bottleneck, and only introduce more complexity when the current architecture can no longer handle the traffic.

  @AWSSupport MFA team is in-house team or outsourced. This is not acceptable. It has been 3 months. In June '26 this issue started. If the MFA device or app is out of sync. How is it my problem. This is aws issue. How can you guys ignore a genuine issue like this. All articles are useless.
