    AI in the EU

    A practical reading path on running Claude and other AI models in Europe: routing, evidence, enforcement, residency versus sovereignty, developer tools, cost and gateways.

    Read top to bottom. Each article builds on the one before it.

    Start with the first article
    1. 01AI in European SoftwareCan You Use Claude Without Sending Prompts and Responses Outside the EU?How In-Region, EU Geographic and Global routing on Amazon Bedrock work, and what needs to be configured correctly.
    2. 02AI in European SoftwareHow to Verify Where Claude Processed Your Request with AWS CloudTrailUse AWS CloudTrail records to produce auditable evidence of where Claude requests on Amazon Bedrock were processed.
    3. 03AI in European SoftwareHow to Enforce EU-Only Claude Routing with IAM and SCPsUse IAM policies and service control policies to restrict Claude on Amazon Bedrock to approved EU inference routes.
    4. 04AI in European SoftwareClaude Platform on AWS vs Claude on Amazon Bedrock: What Actually ChangesCompare who operates inference, processes prompts and controls data location across two distinct Claude services on AWS.
    5. 05AI in European SoftwareData Residency vs Sovereignty: What EU Regions Do and Don't Solve for ClaudeSeparate data location, operational control and legal jurisdiction when assessing Claude deployments in Europe.
    6. 06AI in European SoftwareDo You Need to Switch to a European Model to Keep AI Data in the EU?Learn when deployment controls can meet EU data requirements and when model jurisdiction or self-hosting changes the decision.
    7. 07AI-Enabled EngineeringRunning Claude Code on Amazon Bedrock Inside the EUConfigure Claude Code with pinned EU inference profiles, IAM controls and checks that keep model processing in EU Regions.
    8. 08AI-Enabled EngineeringUsing Cursor with Claude in the EUConnect Cursor to Claude on Amazon Bedrock in Europe while understanding where code and prompts travel along the full path.
    9. 09AI-Enabled EngineeringUsing Kiro with Claude in the EUConfigure Kiro enterprise identity, profile location and approved models so Claude processing stays within EU Regions.
    10. 10SaaS Architecture & EconomicsControlling the Cost of Claude on Amazon BedrockUnderstand regional pricing, budgets, cost attribution and quota planning for Claude workloads on Amazon Bedrock.
    11. 11AI in European SoftwareOpen-Weight Coding Models in the EU: Qwen, Gemma, Mistral and Where to Run ThemCompare open-weight coding models and the European cloud, sovereign and self-hosted environments where they can run.
    12. 12AI-Enabled EngineeringConfiguring Coding Tools with Open-Weight Models in the EUCompare how Kiro, Mistral Vibe, Cline and Cursor reach open-weight models hosted at approved European endpoints.
    13. 13AI-Enabled EngineeringDo You Need an AI Gateway to Keep AI Coding in the EU?Decide when an AI gateway adds useful central control for European model routing, tools, budgets and fallback paths.
