Deploying Agentic Systems on AWS: Environment & Cost Insights
kmeanskaran · x · 2026-08-16
Key insights from deploying an Agentic Harness system on AWS:
- Environment Isolation: Create separate dev and prod environments. Require manual approval for prod, and use git tags for promotion.
- Cost Considerations: Running two infrastructures in parallel doubles costs; consider sharing S3 buckets and knowledge bases.
- Stability: Mandatory CI checks prevent breakage from library updates (e.g., LangChain). Add a smoke test stage for health checks before pushing to ECR.
