Amazon and Anthropic Expand Claude on AWS with New Trainium Capacity

Amazon and Anthropic deepen their AI partnership, committing up to 5 GW of Trainium capacity to train and run Claude on AWS, expanding the Claude Platform on AWS and enabling Claude access within customers’ AWS accounts. Amazon will invest $5 billion now and up to $20 billion later, with Anthropic slated to spend over $100 billion on AWS technologies over the next decade. The deal sustains Project Rainier, expands international inference to Asia and Europe, and leverages Trainium and Graviton across Bedrock, powering real‑world deployments for Lyft, Pfizer and others while keeping AWS as Anthropic’s primary training and cloud provider.
