Anthropic enables in-country Claude inference in India via Amazon Bedrock
Editorial Analysis
Anthropic made Claude Opus 5, Sonnet 5 and Haiku 4.5 available with in-country inference through an India endpoint on Amazon Bedrock, so requests are processed on servers within India. This addresses data residency requirements for regulated sectors including banks, government and enterprises. The change removes a key barrier to production deployment of frontier models in India and expands Anthropic’s enterprise footprint in its second-largest market for Claude.
