Anthropic

Anthropic runs **Claude** and related services on a safety-first **multi-cloud** compute fabric spanning AWS Trainium2, Google TPUv7 and NVIDIA GPUs, fronted by Kubernetes‑based microservices (API gateways, orchestration, rate limiting, caching, and safety filters), with state held in PostgreSQL, vector stores, Redis, and cloud object storage.[1][10][13] Production offerings like Claude API and Managed Agents expose a fully managed orchestration and agent runtime, while emerging self‑hosted sandboxes move tool execution into customer infrastructure but keep Claude inference, routing, and session state on Anthropic’s cloud.[2][3][11]

FAQ

Does Anthropic use a foundational AI model?

Anthropic uses Claude 3.5 family (Opus / Sonnet / Haiku variants), Claude 3.x / Claude Instant (legacy/previous generations) (Native (own / self-hosted weights)).

What cloud does Anthropic run on?

Anthropic runs on Multi-Cloud.

What database does Anthropic use?

Anthropic uses PostgreSQL[13], vector databases (e.g., Qdrant)[4][13], Redis/Valkey (cache)[5][9][13], object storage (cloud blob storage, e.g., S3/GCS)[1][13].

How close does Anthropic run to the foundational model?

Anthropic is Native (own / self-hosted weights) — close to the metal, so cheaper tokens and more control over outputs.
