Claude Code and CoWork on AWS

About this event

Join us for a session on enterprise deployment patterns for Claude Code and Claude CoWork (Claude Desktop) with Amazon Bedrock using existing identity providers. Deploy once to enable both Claude Code CLI and Claude CoWork Desktop across your organization, with centralized access control, audit trails, and usage monitoring.

Claude Code is Anthropic's autonomous AI coding agent — it plans, writes, tests, debugs, and commits code across entire repositories directly from your terminal. Running on Amazon Bedrock, it leverages your existing OIDC identity provider (Okta, Azure AD, Auth0) for authentication, issues temporary AWS credentials with full user attribution, and routes all inference through your AWS account — no API keys to manage, no data leaving your environment.
Claude CoWork (Claude Desktop in 3rd-party platform mode) brings the same AI capabilities to knowledge workers — product managers, analysts, and operations teams. It supports projects, artifacts, file upload/export, MCP servers, and remote connectors, all with inference routed through your Bedrock infrastructure. The same authentication deployment that powers Claude Code extends to CoWork with zero additional AWS infrastructure — just generate an MDM configuration and roll it out.
What makes this powerful:

• One deployment covers both developers (Claude Code) and the broader organization (Claude CoWork)
• Consumption-based pricing through AWS billing — no seat licenses
• Full enterprise governance: IAM policies, CloudTrail audit logs, CloudWatch usage dashboards
• Data stays within your AWS account — meets regulatory and data residency requirements
• Cross-region inference for optimal performance and availability

High level schedule:

• 4:30 - 4:45: Arrivals
• 4:45 - 5:45: Presentation & Demo
• 5:45 - 6:00: Q&A
• 6:00 - 6:30: Networking
