AWS engineers share kernel optimizations for fused Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models on Amazon SageMaker AI: Swap-AB for WGMMA utilization, Triton backend routing for FP8 quantization, and eliminating Triton JIT recompilation. Together they deliver up to 10% higher throughput and up to 9% faster Time to First Token on H200 GPUs.

Claude Haiku 5.5 is now available on Amazon Bedrock and Claude Platform on AWS. According to Anthropic, it is the fastest, most efficient model in the Claude 5.5 family, built for subagents and high-volume, cost-sensitive work, and costs around 75% less than Claude Haiku 4.5 for most tasks. This post covers its improvements and how to get started.

Enterprise RAG unlocks insights from knowledge sources like SharePoint, Google Drive, and Confluence, but those sources carry complex permissions. Learn how Amazon Quick and Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases enforce document-level access controls in real time, verifying permissions directly with authoritative sources at query time.

Data scientists and ML engineers can now create, configure, start, stop, and open Amazon SageMaker Spaces on SageMaker HyperPod EKS clusters directly from SageMaker Studio. Launch JupyterLab and Code Editor environments in a few clicks, without using command-line tools.

GLM 5.3 from Z.ai is now available on Amazon Bedrock: a 753B-parameter mixture-of-experts model built for coding and long-horizon agentic tasks. Learn how to invoke it with the OpenAI-compatible APIs, cut cost and latency with prompt caching, and run an authorized security test with the open-source Strix agent.

Amazon SageMaker optimized generative AI inference introduces the aws-ai-ml skill through the Agent Toolkit for AWS, giving coding agents like Kiro, Claude Code, and Codex deep expertise in inference optimization and benchmarking. Describe what you want, and your agent generates executable SageMaker Python SDK v3 code to benchmark, recommend, and compare deployments.

Amazon Quick Sight is a fully managed, cloud-native business intelligence (BI) capability for building and publishing interactive dashboards. The new hierarchy filter gives dashboard authors rich, multi-level filtering in a single compact control, reducing clutter and guiding readers to the data they need in fewer steps.

Anthropic’s Claude Opus 5, Claude Sonnet 5, and Claude Haiku 4.5 are now available in India through Amazon Bedrock geographic cross-Region inference. You can access these models while processing data within the India Regions, and get started from the Amazon Bedrock console or with the Messages, InvokeModel, and Converse APIs.

Amazon Bedrock now supports Anthropic’s Claude Opus 5 and Claude Sonnet 5 with in-region inference in Seoul, and Claude Sonnet 5 in Singapore. If you have local data processing requirements in South Korea or Singapore, you can now use these Anthropic models at scale, with inference processed entirely within the Region you call.

GPT-6.1 Sol is now generally available on Amazon Bedrock, bringing stronger reasoning to coding, computer use, and professional workloads that run frequently.
