DeepsetAmazonBedrockChatGenerator

Generate chat responses using Amazon Bedrock models with Haystack Platform integration.

DeepsetAmazonBedrockChatGenerator generates chat responses using Amazon Bedrock models hosted on Haystack Platform's Bedrock account. This component provides access to various foundation models available through Amazon Bedrock, including Claude, Llama, and Titan models.

Key Features

  • Accesses Amazon Bedrock models through Haystack Platform's account — no separate AWS account required.
  • Supports chat completion interface with ChatMessage input and output.
  • Supports tool calling for agentic workflows.
  • Supports streaming responses token by token.
  • Configurable generation parameters such as max_tokens, temperature, and top_p.

Configuration

  1. Drag the DeepsetAmazonBedrockChatGenerator component onto the canvas from the Component Library.
  2. Click on the component to open the configuration panel.
  3. On the General tab:
    1. Enter the Amazon Bedrock model identifier in the Model field (for example, anthropic.claude-3-sonnet-20240229-v1:0).
    2. Set the AWS region name where the Bedrock service is accessed.
  4. Go to the Advanced tab to configure generation_kwargs, streaming_callback, boto3_config, and tools.

Connections

DeepsetAmazonBedrockChatGenerator receives a list of ChatMessage objects from ChatPromptBuilder through its messages input. It outputs a list of ChatMessage objects through its replies output, which you connect to AnswerBuilder or DeepsetAnswerBuilder.
