New to OpenClaw? These articles walk you through getting your first agent running on AWS, step by step. No prior experience with AI agents required.

Haowen Huang's EC2 guide gets you running in about 15 minutes with a single CloudFormation template. Sameer Goel frames OpenClaw as hiring a co-worker — always on, with its own email and tools. And if you're a student, Daniel Helo Puccini's article is written specifically for you, covering Lightsail setup with free-tier credits and Discord integration.

These articles go deeper than a basic setup. They compare deployment options, explore multi-tenant architectures, tackle governance challenges, and share real cost data.

Channy Yun's comparison of Lightsail, EC2, Bedrock AgentCore, and EKS is the article to read if you're still deciding which deployment path fits your needs. Jiade explores a multi-tenant setup where every family member or teammate gets their own isolated agent. And if you want to zoom out, Christian Perez's piece on how AWS, NVIDIA, and Cloudflare are rebuilding internet infrastructure for AI agents provides useful context for where all of this is heading.

These articles go beyond deployment. They cover security audits with real findings, novel architectures, fleet management, and cutting-edge agentic patterns that push OpenClaw into production-grade territory.

Gerardo Castro Arica's two-part security audit series is a standout — he found 53 default skills with no opt-in, deletable logs, and plaintext credential exposure. If you're evaluating OpenClaw for anything beyond a personal experiment, start here. Annie Dongmei and Melanie Li go all-in — 10+ agent teams organized by life domain, deployed on AgentCore with Firecracker microVMs, 62 red team attack scenarios, and a real security incident that changed their multi-tenant isolation approach. Alves Duarte and Lucas Soriano take a different path, rebuilding OpenClaw's architecture on AWS managed services and exploring self-triggering agent patterns.

The OpenClaw ecosystem on AWS is moving fast. New articles are showing up weekly on Builder Center , covering everything from basic deployment to enterprise fleet management. Whatever your level, there's a good starting point above — pick one and start building.
