Bedrock models that stay in Canada

Inference must execute inside Canada. Of the 31 models the matrix shows as available here, 14 are served without the request leaving, and 17 are not.

Regions counted: Canada (Central) (ca-central-1), Canada West (Calgary) (ca-west-1).

What catches people here

Availability in a Canada region does not mean the call stays there. Check the route column: a model reachable only through a cross-region profile is processed wherever that profile has capacity.

Stays in region 13

Callable on-demand with the bare model ID. The request is served by the region you addressed, and nothing crosses a border.

This holds for as long as you address the bare model ID. Swapping it for a global. or cross-region profile ID is a one-word change that moves the inference, and the models tagged other route leaves are the ones where that alternative exists.

Stays in jurisdiction 1

Reachable only through a cross-region inference profile, but every region that profile declares is inside the jurisdiction. The call may cross a regional boundary and will not cross this one.

Leaves the jurisdiction 15

The matrix shows this model as available here. It is only reachable through a profile that declares destinations outside the jurisdiction, so a share of your traffic is processed there.

Destination not bounded 2

The only route is a global profile. AWS does not publish a closed destination list for it, so no residency claim can be made either way — this is unverifiable, not merely non-compliant.

Questions

How many Bedrock models keep data in Canada?

14 of the 31 models available in Canada are served without the request leaving it. The remaining 17 are reachable only through cross-region inference profiles whose declared destinations sit elsewhere, or through a global profile with no published destination list.

Does availability in Canada mean the model runs there?

No. A model reachable only through a cross-region inference profile is served by whichever region in that profile's scope has capacity. The API call succeeds either way, so availability and residency have to be checked separately — that is what the route column on this page is for.

What exactly is being checked here?

Two facts from the AWS Bedrock APIs, rebuilt daily: whether the bare model ID is callable on-demand in a region of this jurisdiction, and which regions each inference profile declares as destinations. The mapping from region to country is maintained by hand. This describes where inference executes; it is not legal advice and does not cover logs, retention or where your application tier runs.
