Amazon Bedrock adds cross-Region inference for GPT-5.6
Amazon Bedrock made GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna available through inference profiles across more than twenty-five AWS Regions, then added India-only profiles for Terra and Luna across Mumbai and Hyderabad. The India profiles keep processing inside the country, while global profiles can route across supported commercial Regions; OpenAI-compatible and Bedrock-native APIs are supported.
Why it matters: The launch turns model routing, capacity, data location, IAM permissions, logging, caching, retention, and failover into one deployment decision. India-regulated workloads gain a bounded two-Region capacity pool without accepting worldwide inference routing.
