This represents a significant enterprise deployment partnership between two major AI ecosystem players.
Claude models approved for FedRAMP High and DoD IL4/5 workloads via Amazon Bedrock
Anthropic announced that Claude models are now approved for use in FedRAMP High and DoD Impact Level 4 and 5 workloads through Amazon Bedrock in AWS GovCloud (US) regions. Currently available models include Claude 3.5 Sonnet v1 and Claude 3 Haiku, with Bedrock capabilities such as Agents, Guardrails, and Knowledge Bases also accessible. This authorization opens Claude to federal agencies and defense organizations handling controlled unclassified information, representing a significant expansion into the U.S. government market. Additional models including Claude 3.7 Sonnet and Claude 4 may be added in the future.
Anthropic and Amazon Expand Collaboration for Up to 5 Gigawatts of New Compute
Anthropic has signed a major expanded agreement with Amazon committing over $100 billion to AWS technologies over ten years, securing up to 5GW of compute capacity for training and deploying Claude across Trainium2 through Trainium4 chips. Amazon is investing an additional $5 billion in Anthropic today, with up to $20 billion more possible in the future, building on $8 billion previously invested. The deal includes nearly 1GW of Trainium2 and Trainium3 capacity coming online by end of 2026, expanded inference in Asia and Europe, and the full Claude Platform becoming available directly within AWS. Anthropic disclosed its run-rate revenue has surpassed $30 billion, up from approximately $9 billion at end of 2025.
OpenAI and Amazon Partner to Build Stateful Runtime Environment for AI Agents on AWS
OpenAI and Amazon Web Services announced a partnership to build a stateful runtime environment for AI agents, designed to manage agent working states including memories, tool connections, and user permissions, running on Amazon Bedrock. The deal includes a $15 billion Amazon investment in OpenAI (with up to $35 billion more contingent on conditions), a $100 billion expansion of compute commitments using Amazon Trainium chips over 8 years, and makes AWS the exclusive third-party cloud provider for OpenAI Frontier. The arrangement exploits a legal distinction between stateful runtime environments and stateless APIs, allowing OpenAI to work with AWS while Microsoft retains exclusive rights to host OpenAI's stateless API calls. This marks a significant loosening of OpenAI's exclusive cloud relationship with Microsoft, mirroring a parallel diversification trend with Anthropic across cloud providers.
Anthropic and AWS expand partnership with $4B investment and Trainium hardware collaboration
