Claude Opus 5.5 · au.anthropic.claude-opus-5-5

AU processing documented

The au. geographic inference profile routes Claude Opus 5.5 only between Sydney (ap-southeast-2) and Melbourne (ap-southeast-4), so both destinations are in Australia.

The important distinction:Use the au. profile ID, not global. or apac. Single-region Melbourne inference is also documented through the bedrock-mantle endpoint with the bare model ID. Other Claude models (Sonnet 5, Haiku 4.5, Opus 5, Sonnet 4.6) also list au. profiles; check each model card.
