Objectives

Before building the application, we need to establish a solid foundation. Similar to preparing ingredients before cooking, this section ensures your AWS account is ready with the necessary permissions and data.

In this section, we will complete 3 key initialization objectives:

  1. Select Region: Set up the working environment in the United States N. Virginia (us-east-1) region to optimize connection speed and ensure service availability.
  2. Enable Model (Model Access): Check and ensure the account has permission to invoke the Anthropic Claude 3 model – the main linguistic “brain” of the system.
  3. Prepare Data (Data Setup): Initialize storage (S3 Bucket) and upload source documents to serve the knowledge ingestion process later.

Key Components

In this preparation section, we will interact with the following components:

  • AWS Management Console (Region Selector): The general management interface to switch the working Region to United States N. Virginia.
  • Amazon Bedrock (Model Access & Playground): The place to manage access to Foundation Models and the chat tool to quickly test AI response capabilities.
  • Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service): Object storage service where we will create a Bucket to hold original document files (PDF, Word, Text).

Implementation Steps

  1. Check Model Access
  2. Prepare Source Data
