The Claude Platform on AWS is now generally available (claude.com)

The Claude Platform on AWS is now generally available, enabling AWS customers to utilize the complete suite of Claude features with improved integration like AWS authentication and streamlined billing. This marks a significant milestone for domain-specific applications in the AI/ML sector, as users can now deploy Claude Managed Agents at scale and leverage powerful tools such as web search capabilities, code execution, and an advisor strategy to enhance agent performance. The platform also supports batch processing for high-volume tasks, which is essential for enterprise-level applications. With the adoption of AWS IAM for authentication, CloudTrail for audit logging, and a single AWS invoice system, the platform simplifies the operational experience for teams already familiar with AWS tools and policies. While both the Claude Platform on AWS and Claude on Amazon Bedrock offer access to Claude models, the former provides a more comprehensive experience managed directly by Anthropic outside the AWS infrastructure. This distinction allows businesses with specific data residency requirements to choose the deployment method that best suits their needs, harnessing AI capabilities in a secure and accessible manner.
