AWS has recently announced the addition of Anthropic’s Claude 2.1 service to Amazon Bedrock, which provides rapid model development capabilities for developers. Claude 2.1 introduces a significant feature that supports a large amount of data, up to 200,000 tokens or approximately 500 pages of paper, while reducing latency by fifty percent. Additionally, it supports system prompts, allowing AI to understand how to proceed.
Function calling is another important feature available in Bedrock that allows Claude to directly access APIs or databases. This feature resembles Agents for Amazon Bedrock, which was also introduced at the same event. However, AWS specifies that prior approval is required to access this feature.
TLDR: AWS has added Anthropic’s Claude 2.1 to Amazon Bedrock, enabling fast model development with support for large data volumes and system prompts. The Bedrock platform also includes function calling capabilities, similar to Agents, but requires advance permission for access.
