Elastic and Glean, two leading AI companies, have both achieved the new Amazon Web Services (AWS) Agentic AI Specialization, a significant recognition within the AWS AI Competency program. This designation highlights their technical expertise and proven success in delivering production-ready, autonomous AI systems that can reason, plan, collaborate, use tools, and execute complex business tasks independently. Elastic, the Search AI Company, has been recognized for its ability to build and deploy agentic AI solutions using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore and other AWS-compatible frameworks like Strands. The company’s Elasticsearch platform plays a central role in enabling these systems by serving as a powerful context engineering platform. It stores and searches both structured and unstructured data, providing the retrieval and tool-building capabilities essential for AI agents to navigate complex workflows. Elastic’s recent launch of Agent Builder—a set of tools powered by Elasticsearch—allows developers to quickly create custom AI agents that can query relevant data, support conversation-based exploration, and automate tasks. Built on Amazon Bedrock and defaulting to models from Anthropic, Agent Builder helps organizations move beyond AI experiments to real-world applications. Elastic’s platform is already used by thousands of companies, including over half the Fortune 500, in areas like observability and security, where fast issue investigation and resolution are critical. Glean, a leader in Work AI, has also earned the AWS Agentic AI Specialization, underscoring its ability to deliver enterprise-grade autonomous systems. Glean’s platform uses an Enterprise Graph to understand the context of data, people, and processes within organizations, enabling its agents to act intelligently and securely. The company’s Glean Assistant and Glean Agents allow employees to create, use, and manage AI agents through natural language, automating work across departments. With over 100 data connectors, support for multiple LLMs, and full governance and security features, Glean enables scalable, turnkey AI deployment without the need for heavy custom orchestration. The platform runs on AWS, allowing enterprises to keep their data in their own cloud environment while leveraging the latest models from Amazon Bedrock. Both companies are part of a growing group of AWS partners now recognized for their advanced capabilities in agentic AI. The AWS Agentic AI Specialization ensures customers can trust these partners to deliver reliable, auditable, and secure AI systems for use cases such as knowledge operations, process automation, customer service, financial operations, and supply chain management. The recognition reflects a broader industry shift toward autonomous AI systems that can handle end-to-end business processes. As AI moves from experimentation to real-world deployment, the ability to integrate context, ensure security, and scale across organizations becomes essential. The collaboration between AWS and companies like Elastic and Glean is helping enterprises unlock tangible value from AI, turning abstract models into tools that get real work done. This development marks a key milestone in the maturation of agentic AI, with AWS setting a standard for what it means to build and deploy trustworthy, production-grade AI systems. As more companies seek to adopt AI at scale, the AWS Agentic AI Specialization is becoming a critical benchmark for identifying capable and reliable partners in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.
