Anthropic's March 19, 2024 announcement made Claude 3 Haiku and Sonnet generally available through Google Cloud's Vertex AI platform. Anthropic said the benefits for Google Cloud customers include keeping data within their existing cloud environment, simplifying data governance and managing access permissions more easily, which are the company's claims rather than tested results. The announcement directed developers to select the models in the Model Garden console. Opus was described as coming in the following weeks, so the release concerned two specific models rather than the entire Claude 3 family.
