OpenAI GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna are now generally available on Amazon Bedrock
Relevant mainly if your organisation already runs its AI workloads through Amazon Bedrock rather than calling OpenAI directly. It gives Bedrock customers a choice of three GPT-5.6 tiers — a top-end reasoning model, a balanced everyday option, and a cheap high-volume one — so you can match the model to the task (e.g. save the expensive one for complex analysis, use the cheap one for bulk processing) at the same price OpenAI charges.
What changed
Source summary
OpenAI's new GPT-5.6 model family — Sol for advanced reasoning, Terra for balanced production work, and Luna for fast/affordable high-volume tasks — is now generally available on Amazon Bedrock. The models run on Bedrock's inference engine with prompt caching and hardware-enforced security, at pricing matching OpenAI's direct rates.
