We prefer to keep model API billing on our AWS bill, but the wait for newer models can be frustrating. Is there any indication that DeepSeek V4 Pro will come to Bedrock, or should we look elsewhere?
Any idea if DeepSeek V4 Pro is coming to Bedrock?
Answers
There isn't a confirmed availability date in the information here, so I wouldn't plan around one. Ask your AWS account team to pass along the request and check the current Bedrock model availability for your region.
Demand may influence which models get added, but a request doesn't guarantee a release or a timeline.

If getting the model quickly matters more than a single AWS bill, look at direct API access or another inference provider. You'll have separate credentials and potentially a separate invoice, but you won't be waiting on Bedrock's release schedule.

Separate billing is the tradeoff we're trying to avoid, but it may be worth considering for newer models.

Check AWS Marketplace for providers offering DeepSeek inference. That might give you another route to access while keeping the purchase connected to AWS, though you'll need to verify the exact model, billing terms, and integration before relying on it.

Also check availability outside your home region. A model can be offered in some regions before others, and cross-region inference may be an option where supported. That won't help unless the specific model is available through Bedrock somewhere you can use.

SageMaker endpoints are another route worth investigating if there's a deployable version of the model that fits your requirements. That's a different operational setup from calling a managed Bedrock model, so check what deployment and maintenance would involve.

That's worth doing, though it doesn't solve the immediate problem if you need access close to release.
