Amazon Bedrock now offers Canada cross-Region inference for Claude Haiku 5.5

News

Amazon Bedrock now offers Canada cross-Region inference (CRIS) for Claude Haiku 5.5, allowing customers with strict data residency requirements to keep inference processing entirely within Canada.

  • Canada CRIS routes requests only between ca-central-1 and ca-west-1 regions
  • Helps regulated industries meet federal and provincial data residency requirements
  • US CRIS and global CRIS remain available for workloads without Canada-specific requirements
  • Designated as limited model selection inference profile with potential future restrictions
  • Recommended for workloads requiring inference processing to stay within Canada

This addition provides Canadian organizations in financial services, healthcare, and public sector with compliant inference options while maintaining broader regional choices for other use cases.
