Amazon Bedrock Brings OpenAI Models and Cross-Region Failover to GovCloud

Amazon Bedrock now runs OpenAI's GPT-5.6 models (Terra and Luna) with full API support—Responses, Converse, and Chat Completions—directly on the bedrock-runtime endpoint in AWS GovCloud (US). The big win: cross-Region inference automatically spreads your requests across both GovCloud regions for better throughput and redundancy, all while keeping your data sovereign and giving you unified logging, metrics, and cost tracking.
