Reviewer scorecard
“Claude on Bedrock with VPC endpoints and IAM auth is the enterprise standard. Knowledge Bases for RAG are production-ready.”
“Model Garden gives you access to every major model with enterprise security. Feature Store and pipelines are production-grade.”
“If you're on AWS, Bedrock is the obvious choice. Cross-model compatibility and guardrails reduce risk.”
“GCP complexity tax is real. Unless you're already on Google Cloud, the onboarding friction isn't worth it.”
“AWS's distribution advantage means Bedrock will be how most enterprises consume AI models.”
“Google's AI infrastructure advantage (TPUs, models, data) makes Vertex the dark horse enterprise AI platform.”
