    Sorry you have to deal with this. You can stay on Amazon Bedrock. Here is what to change before April 8, 2027:
    
    1. Find the model ID. Search for anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929-v1:0, with or without a us., eu. or global. prefix.
    2. Pick a newer Claude model. Anthropic names claude-sonnet-5-5 on its own API. Check the Bedrock model ID for your Region.
    3. Move before January 8. That is when public extended access starts and prices may rise. The end date is April 8.
