Amazon Bedrock

“Bedrock guarantees neither your inputs are shared with the LLM providers, neither your data will be used to train the next model.”

“At least some months back Bedrock seemed to be properly isolated, but I've heard of many getting non-ZDR notices for new models.”

“OpenAI never even gets the data, those orgs get to host OAI's model as local within their datacenters”

“You can use all the flagship models on Amazon Bedrock and have a contractually obligated air gap between your data and the model providers.”

“For enterprise use there are services like AWS Bedrock which have strict isolation guarantees.”

“AWS Bedrock, and companies like together.ai, fireworks.ai have tons of deals that focus very much on data confidentiality.”

“AWS Bedrock is good with billing and customer service, but they don't offer as many models.”

“It's governed by your master AWS agreement (which will make your compliance officer happy), and billing is also conveniently handled by AWS.”

“They'll give you HIPAA compliance, they even have a data center for US government classified data, they can give you European data sovereignty.”

“I think you could have accessed Opus on AWS then u don't have to trust that the data will go to Anthropic”

“There are a solutions, like Amazon Bedrock, that allow model usage with strict data control.”

“Anthropic really ruined their Bedrock story by imposing data retention requirements that cross a red line in regulatory compliance”

“even on Bedrock and Azure Foundry, now with Fable 5, Anthropic inserts themselves as an additional data subprocessor”

“you have contractual guarantees with a third party, that’s been in business for a couple decades”

“This makes these models unusable in the settings where people are actually benefiting from these models being on Bedrock”

“Given they could have done this with data residency rules being respected and chose not to suggests all I need to know”

“We are already paying plus for using bedrock instead of the API version from Anthropic, so now there is no reason to use bedrock anymore.”

“The security boundary that AWS maintains is important in a lot areas, like medical, where the datacenter has to support some specific certifications.”

“We 'trust' Amazon already and Amazon has no incentive at all to collect the data to finetune claude”

“Using something like Bedrock is a lot easier for compliance because the only processor is Amazon”

“You have the models available on Bedrock. What is the problem? It stays within your AWS account.”

“Bedrock was the only way I could use foundation models for a while given AWS lock-in and security requirements.”

“AWS has never done anything close to sneaking in unwanted training opt-outs after the fact”

“For where I work, this requirement is a dealbreaker for going directly through OpenAI's API instead of going through AWS Bedrock.”

“gambling on free trial poker bets on expensive tokens that the AWS and Anthropic dealers were selling to you”

“There are also some providers that will contractually keep your data private, like AWS Bedrock”

“AWS doesn't have prepaid billing, so you can't just give the internet access to your API key without getting FinDDoS'd”

“Inference providers like BaseTen and AWS Bedrock have perfectly capable open source models”

“Just sign up for an AWS account and use the Anthropic models through Bedrock which Pi can use.”

“They have a bunch of models that are serverless that you can use on a per token pricing cost.”

“We already have Groq, Celebras and AWS Bedrock and others in the inference of open models space”

“doesn’t send any data elsewhere or train on it which is great for organizations who already have data governance sign off with AWS”

“It also allows for consolidated billing, more control over usage, being able to switch between providers and models easily, and more.”

“it'll probably be a better idea to run the models hosted in Amazon Bedrock or Google Vertex”

“It’s slower than consumer direct-to-Anthropic and you have to wait a bit for the latest models”

“I use OpenCode with Sonnet and/or Opus (among other models) with Bedrock, but paying metered rates for Opus is a way to go bankrupt fast!”

“I was often the single source of reporting Claude outages (or even missing support completely) on less commonly used Amazon Bedrock regions.”

“you just log into your AWS account, get an AWS credential in the same way you would for any other service”

“one less vendor to vet, one less contract to negotiate, one less 3rd party system to administer”

“I just check what regions AWS bedrock support Deepseek and their govcloud regions do not, so that's a good reason not to use it”
