Claude Opus 4.8 is now available in Microsoft Foundry, giving developers and enterprises access to Anthropic’s most capable Opus model for coding, agentic tasks, and professional work.As AI applications become more complex, teams need models that can handle longer-running work, reason more deeply across complex analysis use tools more reliably across multi-step workflows, and support consistency for production workflows. Claude Opus 4.8 is designed for these demands, with stronger performance across software development, agents, document-heavy analysis, and enterprise workflows.

Built for complex coding work

Claude Opus 4.8 is designed to support real-world software development tasks, from feature work and debugging to refactoring, migrations, and multi-stage coding projects.

The model can read and reason across codebases, plan before making edits, track dependencies across longer sessions, and continue working through complex tasks with less manual intervention. This makes it well suited for developer workflows where the model needs to understand context, make changes carefully, and maintain coherence over longer periods of work.

Stronger support for agentic workflows

Claude Opus 4.8 also brings improvements for agentic tasks. It is designed to use tools more reliably across multi-step workflows, recover from errors, and problem solve more creatively.

For teams building customer-facing agents, internal automation, or complex workflow orchestration, this matters because agents need more than one-step accuracy. They need to plan, take action, adapt when something fails, and stay within the scope of the task.

Deeper reasoning for enterprise work

In addition to coding and agents, Claude Opus 4.8 is designed for professional work that requires reasoning across long documents, complex inputs, and multiple sources.

This can support use cases such as research synthesis, financial analysis, contract review, regulatory workflows, cybersecurity analysis, and other document-heavy enterprise tasks where consistency and depth are important.

Example use cases

Claude Opus 4.8 can support a range of horizontal and industry-specific scenarios, including:

Software development: Feature work, debugging, code review, refactoring, and large-scale migrations sustained across long sessions in real codebases.

Research and analysis: Synthesizing long documents, producing structured briefs, and generating analysis across multiple sources on the first pass.

Agents and automation: Multi-step workflows that require tool use, planning, and error recovery withlimited oversight.

Financial services: Investment research, earnings analysis, and compliance workflows.

Legal: Contract review, redlining, due diligence, legal research, and draft preparation.

Life sciences: Literature review, clinical documentation, regulatory submission drafting, and trial data synthesis.

Cybersecurity: Threat intelligence synthesis, vulnerability analysis, alert triage, incident response, and security code review.

Available in Microsoft Foundry

With Claude Opus 4.8 available in Microsoft Foundry, developers can access the model as part of a broader platform for building, evaluating, deploying, and operating AI applications.

Microsoft Foundry gives teams a unified environment to work with leading models, compare model fit for their scenarios, evaluate performance against their own data, and move from experimentation to production with enterprise controls.

Claude Opus 4.8 expands the Claude model choice available in Microsoft Foundry and gives teams another strong option for building advanced AI applications that require coding strength, agentic capability, and deep reasoning for enterprise workflows.

AWS Interconnect – multicloud now offers a free 500 Mbps tier

AWS Interconnect – multicloud now offers a free 500 Mbps multicloud Interconnect, making it easier to privately connect your workloads on AWS and other public clouds.
Customers have been adopting multicloud strategies while migrating more applications to the cloud. With AWS Interconnect – multicloud, AWS simplified the way cloud services providers (CSPs) offer managed, highly-resilient, private connectivity for customers. The specification that powers Interconnect is open and already adopted by Google Cloud and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (currently in Public Preview), with Microsoft Azure coming later in 2026.
Today we are making it easier for customers to evaluate, test, and operate workloads between AWS and another CSP. The new Free Tier Interconnect gives customers a fully managed, 500 Mbps Interconnect to another CSP at no charge on the AWS side, with the same network path, facility, and device resiliency as our paid offering. The other CSP determines their pricing and charges independently of AWS for their side of the infrastructure. Please review the other CSP’s pricing before creating your Interconnect.
With a 500 Mbps Interconnect, you can transfer approximately 160 TB of data per month, enough to support significant multicloud workloads, data replication, or hybrid application architectures without incurring AWS Interconnect charges. To help customers monitor their network health and performance across clouds, each Free Tier multicloud Interconnect includes an Amazon CloudWatch Network Synthetic Monitor at no extra cost.
The Free Tier is limited to one local (Tier 1) Interconnect per customer, per AWS Region to each CSP that is Generally Available with AWS and is subject to the AWS Service Terms.
To get started, use the AWS Direct Connect Console and select AWS Interconnect from the navigation menu. To learn more, visit the AWS Interconnect User Guide.
