The expanded relationship speaks to just how much demand Anthropic is driving within the cloud and data center infrastructure ecosystem. The training will be primarily based in the US, but inference will expand Anthropic\u2019s footprint on a global basis, and in turn, drive uptake in additional add-on infrastructure services.<\/p>\n<p>Claude remains the only frontier AI model available on AWS, Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tRelated\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tArticle Topics<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edgeir.com\/tag\/ai-infrastructure\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">AI infrastructure<\/a> \u00a0|\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edgeir.com\/tag\/anthropic\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Anthropic<\/a> \u00a0|\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edgeir.com\/tag\/aws\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">AWS<\/a> \u00a0|\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edgeir.com\/tag\/cloud-infrastructure\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">cloud infrastructure<\/a> \u00a0|\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edgeir.com\/tag\/data-centers\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">data centers<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Anthropic and Amazon have expanded their collaboration, securing up to 5 gigawatts of computing capacity for training and&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":24234,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[407,53,322,2304,39],"class_list":{"0":"post-24233","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-anthropic","8":"tag-ai-infrastructure","9":"tag-anthropic","10":"tag-aws","11":"tag-cloud-infrastructure","12":"tag-data-centers"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24233","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24233"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24233\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24234"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24233"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24233"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24233"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
