    "description": "Starting with Claude Sonnet 4.5 and all future models, Bedrock offers two endpoint types: global endpoints (dynamic routing for maximum availability, no pricing premium, recommended default) and regional endpoints/CRIS (guaranteed routing through a specific geography — US, EU, Japan, Australia — for data-residency/compliance, with a 10% pricing premium). Global-prefixed model IDs already include \"global.\"; removing that prefix selects the regional/CRIS endpoint instead.",
