Claude Platform on AWS
#190 · Level 3 · Modern architecture · AI and machine learningConcept
Section titled “Concept”Claude Platform on AWS is Anthropic’s own Claude Platform, which you can use with your AWS account’s credentials, billing and access control. Claude is an AI model made by the company Anthropic. Here you get the features of Anthropic’s real platform, but login and permissions run through AWS IAM, activity records are kept in AWS CloudTrail, and the cost comes on your AWS bill. There is one important difference: here your data is processed by Anthropic itself, outside the AWS boundary, while if you use Claude in Amazon Bedrock, AWS processes the data. So which one you choose depends on your needs.
Simple example
Section titled “Simple example”A foreign brand’s own shop, but you shop and pay the bill with the card from the bank you already know — no need to open a new account.
Why it’s needed
Section titled “Why it’s needed”To use Anthropic’s platform directly, you usually have to manage a separate account, a separate bill and a separate permission system. A company that already uses AWS can run it with the IAM and billing it already knows.
Where it’s used
Section titled “Where it’s used”When a company that keeps its costs and permissions in one place on AWS wants to build apps or AI agents with Claude.
