OpenAI GPT-5.6 models now available on Amazon Bedrock with India-only data residency

AWS has made OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Terra and Luna models available on Amazon Bedrock with geographic cross-Region inference confined to India, addressing data residency requirements for regulated sectors like financial services, healthcare, and public sector. Both models offer 1-million-token context windows with text and image input, accessible via OpenAI-compatible APIs or Bedrock's native Converse API. This signals deepening AWS-OpenAI partnership and growing cloud provider attention to sovereign AI infrastructure in emerging markets.
