Record Notes

AWS Project Rainier is the New Carlisle, Indiana AI supercomputing campus built with Anthropic. AWS says the operational cluster uses nearly 500,000 Trainium2 chips and that Claude is expected to run on more than 1 million Trainium2 chips across Anthropic direct usage and Amazon Bedrock by year-end. Matt Garman's AWS update similarly frames Project Rainier as live and built with Anthropic.

ADCI changes selected capacity from 2,400 MW to 2,200 MW. CNBC reports that the New Carlisle site will span 30 buildings consuming 2.2 GW once complete. DCD separately reports Amazon's November 2025 plan to add 2.4 GW of capacity across Northern Indiana, in addition to the earlier $11 billion St. Joseph County investment. ADCI therefore treats 2,200 MW as the full-build Project Rainier campus power envelope and no longer applies the 2,400 MW regional-expansion figure to this single record.
