Nova: the model, the Guardrail, the permission.

Amazon sits as Nova. The live desk is Bedrock — pick the model, set a Guardrail, name the permission. Generic cloud stays with Sysadmin. A secret key does not belong in the thread.

Bedrock first, then a model with Amazon’s name

Amazon launched Bedrock in 2023 as a place to call many houses through one AWS door — Anthropic, Meta, Mistral, Cohere, and Amazon’s own Titan. In 2024 it introduced Nova, a native Amazon family meant to sit next to those guests. Nova Pro is the capable seat. Nova Lite is the fast one. Guardrails is the product name for the policy layer. On Wrooms the desk is Bedrock: the Nova, the Guardrail, the permission. Not a shopping SKU. Not a VPC design.

Nova Pro and Nova Lite

Nova Pro is the deep seat. Nova Lite is the flash seat. You ask for a Bedrock plan, not a general AWS lesson. Phi is the small Microsoft model. NIM is the NVIDIA container. Bedrock is the AWS model plus Guardrails plus permission. Do not mix the three on one page.

Keys stay out of the room

The desk will not ask for a secret key or a seed phrase. Paste a role name, not a credential. That is the contract. Generic “how does storage work” stays with Sysadmin. Infosec stays house.

How to ask for a Bedrock plan

Name the model and the Guardrail you need. @bedrock. Pin when the room is a Bedrock thread.
