Claude Opus 4.7 Arrives on Amazon Bedrock
Anthropic's most advanced Opus model, Claude Opus 4.7, is now available in Amazon Bedrock. This latest iteration delivers substantial improvements in coding, long-running agents, and professional knowledge work, setting new benchmarks in agentic AI performance.
Enhanced Coding and Agentic Capabilities
Claude Opus 4.7 scores 64.3% on SWE-bench Pro and 87.6% on SWE-bench Verified, extending its lead in agentic coding with stronger long-horizon autonomy and complex code reasoning. The model excels at tasks such as document creation, financial analysis, and multi-step research, making it a powerful tool for knowledge workers.
Adaptive Thinking and Expanded Context Window
The model runs on Bedrock's next-generation inference engine with dynamic capacity allocation. It introduces adaptive thinking, which allows Claude to allocate thinking token budgets based on request complexity, optimizing performance for each task. The full 1M token context window is supported, enabling processing of large documents and datasets. Claude Opus 4.7 also adds high-resolution image support for better accuracy on charts, dense documents, and screen UIs.
The model is available at launch in US East (N. Virginia), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Europe (Ireland), and Europe (Stockholm), with up to 10,000 requests per minute per account per Region.
AWS Interconnect Now Generally Available
AWS Interconnect brings two managed private connectivity capabilities to general availability, simplifying last-mile connectivity and multicloud networking.
Multicloud Connectivity
AWS Interconnect – Multicloud provides Layer 3 private connections between AWS VPCs and other cloud providers. Google Cloud is available now, with Azure and OCI coming later in 2026. Traffic flows over the AWS global backbone and the partner cloud's private network, never over the public internet. Built-in MACsec encryption, multi-facility resiliency, and CloudWatch monitoring ensure security and reliability. AWS published the underlying specification on GitHub under Apache 2.0, enabling any cloud provider to become an Interconnect partner.
Last-Mile Connectivity Simplified
AWS Interconnect – Last Mile simplifies high-speed private connections from branch offices, data centers, and remote locations to AWS through existing network providers. It automatically provisions 4 redundant connections across 2 physical locations, configures BGP routing, activates MACsec encryption and Jumbo Frames by default, and offers bandwidth from 1 Gbps to 100 Gbps adjustable.
A Message to Developers
In a recent commencement speech at the University of Namur, an AWS executive shared insights on the future of software development in the age of AI. The message: AI will not make developers obsolete. Tools have evolved from punch cards to IDEs to AI-assisted coding, but the work remains yours. Developers who thrive will stay curious, think in systems, communicate with precision, and take ownership of what they build. The world needs more people with coding skills, and AI raises the bar on what we can accomplish.
