Why Claude on Bedrock

Claude is Anthropic's most capable AI model family — powering everything from complex analysis to autonomous coding agents. But for enterprises in healthcare, finance, government, and other regulated industries, using Claude through a direct API isn't always an option. Compliance requirements demand VPC isolation, audit logging, customer-managed encryption, and certifications that only a hyperscaler can provide. That's where Bedrock comes in.

Amazon Bedrock is AWS's fully managed foundation model service. It gives you API access to Claude models — Fable 5.1, Opus 5, Sonnet 5, Haiku 4.5 — inside your existing AWS environment. Your data never leaves your VPC. No prompts or responses are used to train models. Authentication runs through IAM, logging through CloudTrail, and encryption through KMS with your own keys. For enterprises already on AWS, it's the fastest path to compliant Claude deployment.

But Bedrock is more than just a secure API endpoint. It includes managed infrastructure that would take months to build yourself: Knowledge Bases for RAG pipelines, Agents for autonomous multi-step workflows, Guardrails for content filtering and PII redaction, and intelligent prompt routing that sends queries to the right Claude model based on complexity and cost. These managed services turn Claude from a model you call into a platform you build on.

OneWave is a team of Claude experts, and we build natively on AWS Bedrock. We deploy Claude natively through Anthropic's API for development workflows and Claude Code, and through Bedrock for enterprise production workloads. That dual expertise means we help you design the right architecture — not just pick a vendor. Learn more about our Claude consulting and full services.

What We Build

Bedrock implementation across the full managed AI stack — from compliance configuration to multi-agent orchestration. Every layer, designed for your enterprise.

Enterprise Compliance & Security

VPC endpoints via PrivateLink, IAM integration, CloudTrail audit logging, customer-managed KMS encryption, no data used for training. SOC 2, HIPAA, FedRAMP, PCI DSS.

Managed RAG with Knowledge Bases

Fully managed retrieval-augmented generation. Connect S3, Confluence, SharePoint, Salesforce. Automatic chunking, embedding, and vector store indexing. Natural language to SQL for structured data.

Bedrock Agents

Build autonomous AI agents with Claude as the reasoning engine. Multi-agent orchestration, Lambda/OpenAPI tool integration, session memory, code interpretation, and guardrails.

Guardrails Configuration

Content filtering, denied topics, PII detection and redaction, contextual grounding checks, and automated reasoning. Configurable safety controls between users and models.

Multi-Model Routing

Intelligent prompt routing across Claude Fable 5.1, Opus 5, Sonnet 5, and Haiku 4.5. Route by complexity — Haiku for simple queries, Sonnet for standard work, Opus for complex reasoning. Optimize cost without sacrificing quality.

Performance & Cost Optimization

Prompt caching, batch inference (50% discount), provisioned throughput for predictable performance, cross-region inference for availability. Bedrock spend counts toward existing AWS EDP commitments.

API Integration & Migration

Production integration via Bedrock's InvokeModel and Converse APIs using standard AWS SDKs. Migrate from direct Anthropic API to Bedrock, or build hybrid architectures that use both.

Cross-Region & Global Deployment

Cross-region inference for high availability and capacity management. Data residency controls, region-specific routing, and GovCloud support for government workloads.

Built for Regulated Industries

For enterprises in healthcare, finance, legal, and government, AI adoption isn't optional — but neither is compliance. Bedrock gives you Claude with the security posture your industry demands.

HIPAA eligible with AWS BAA coverage — deploy Claude for healthcare workflows with PHI protections and audit trails
SOC 1/2/3 and ISO 27001 certified — meets the security bar for financial services and enterprise SaaS
FedRAMP authorized regions and GovCloud support for US government and defense workloads
PCI DSS compliant — deploy Claude for payment processing and financial transaction workflows
Full audit logging via CloudTrail — every model invocation tracked, every prompt optionally logged to S3
VPC isolation via PrivateLink — Claude API calls never traverse the public internet

Most of our enterprise clients start with a compliance review. We map your requirements to Bedrock's security controls and design an architecture that passes your security team's review before we write a single line of code.

Why OneWave for Bedrock

We're not a generic cloud consultancy that added AI to the menu. We deploy Claude daily — through Anthropic's API and through Bedrock — and we understand both platforms deeply enough to design the right architecture for your specific compliance and performance requirements.

How We Work

Four phases. Four weeks to production Claude on Bedrock. Every engagement follows the same structure — adapted to your compliance requirements and infrastructure.

Week 1

Audit

We assess your compliance requirements, existing AWS infrastructure, and AI use cases. We identify where Claude on Bedrock fits and flag anything that needs security team approval before deployment.

Week 2

Architect

We design the Bedrock architecture: which Claude models, Knowledge Base data sources, Agent configurations, Guardrails rules, and IAM policies. Clear technical spec, reviewed with your security and engineering teams.

Weeks 2-4

Deploy

We stand up the infrastructure: VPC endpoints, Knowledge Bases, Agents, Guardrails, prompt caching, and model routing. Production-grade deployment with monitoring via CloudWatch and cost tracking from day one.

Week 4

Train & Transfer

Hands-on training for your team: Bedrock console, AWS SDK integration, agent management, Knowledge Base updates, and prompt engineering. You own the system after we leave.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Claude on Bedrock, compliance, deployment timelines, and working with OneWave AI.

What is Amazon Bedrock and why use it for Claude?
Bedrock is AWS's fully managed AI service. It gives you access to Claude inside your AWS environment with VPC isolation, IAM auth, CloudTrail logging, and KMS encryption. For enterprises with compliance requirements — HIPAA, SOC 2, FedRAMP, PCI DSS — Bedrock is the standard path to deploying Claude in production. See the Bedrock documentation for full details.
Which Claude models are available on Bedrock?
Claude Fable 5.1, Opus 5, Sonnet 5, and Haiku 4.5 are available on Bedrock, along with previous-generation models like Opus 4.8 and Sonnet 4.6. Model availability varies by AWS region — cross-region inference helps ensure availability. New Claude models typically appear on Bedrock within hours to days of their Anthropic API release.
How does Bedrock pricing compare to using Claude directly?
Per-token pricing is nearly identical. The real cost advantages on Bedrock come from batch inference (up to 50% discount), prompt caching, provisioned throughput for high-volume workloads, and the ability to count Bedrock spend toward existing AWS Enterprise Discount Programs. We optimize all of these as part of every engagement.
Is Bedrock HIPAA compliant for healthcare AI?
Yes. Bedrock is HIPAA eligible and covered under the AWS Business Associate Agreement. Data processed through Bedrock is encrypted in transit and at rest, stays within your VPC, and is not used to train models. We help healthcare clients configure the full compliance stack: VPC endpoints, IAM policies, audit logging, PII redaction via Guardrails, and data retention controls.
What are Bedrock Agents and how do they compare to Claude's native agents?
Bedrock Agents are a managed orchestration layer that uses Claude as the reasoning engine. They handle multi-step tasks, call tools via Lambda or OpenAPI, query Knowledge Bases, and maintain conversation memory — all without you building the agent loop. Claude's native tool use gives you more flexibility but requires custom orchestration code. We help clients choose the right approach or combine both.
Can we use both Bedrock and Anthropic's direct API?
Yes, and many enterprises do. A common pattern: use Bedrock for production workloads that need compliance, and Anthropic's API for development, prototyping, and Claude Code workflows. We design hybrid architectures that give you the best of both platforms.
How long does a Bedrock deployment take?
Most Bedrock deployments take 2-4 weeks. A basic Claude API integration with VPC endpoints and IAM can be done in a week. More complex deployments with Knowledge Bases, Agents, Guardrails, and cross-region inference typically take 3-4 weeks. We prioritize getting Claude into production within the first two weeks.
Do you only work with AWS or do you support other cloud providers?
We deploy across AWS, GCP, and Azure. For Claude specifically, our deepest integrations are with AWS Bedrock and Anthropic's direct API. For clients on Azure, we can deploy through Azure's AI services. We recommend the platform that fits your existing infrastructure and compliance requirements.
