Amazon Bedrock has added support for OpenAI GPT-5.6 models—named Sol, Terra, and Luna—with cross-Region inference available in more than 25 AWS Regions. The feature uses US geographic and global inference profiles to route requests, aiming to increase throughput. The blog post explains how to call the models using both the OpenAI and Converse APIs, and how to configure IAM permissions, quotas, and monitoring.
Why it matters
Cross-Region inference lets requests be distributed across multiple AWS Regions, which the post positions as a way to achieve higher throughput. Availability across more than 25 Regions and support for two API options gives teams flexibility in how they integrate the models.
Who should care
Developers and enterprises building on Amazon Bedrock who want to use OpenAI GPT-5.6 models and manage access, quotas, and monitoring at scale.
