Once a foundation model is selected, the next step for many businesses is customization. Amazon Bedrock enables users to adapt models to their specific needs through two main approaches: fine-tuning and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Fine-tuning allows businesses to enhance a model’s accuracy and relevance by training it further on proprietary data. Meanwhile, RAG combines a foundation model with an external data source, helping it generate more contextually informed responses without altering the model itself.
These capabilities are essential for companies that handle domain-specific information or want to reflect brand tone and terminology in automated outputs. Fine-tuning in Bedrock involves uploading a training dataset in JSONL format and using Bedrock’s simple interface to create a custom model variant. For use cases where real-time data is more important than static learning, RAGs enable models to retrieve facts from knowledge bases before generating a response; ideal for applications like customer support, search, and legal document review.
Skyloop Cloud works closely with clients to implement these customization strategies efficiently and securely. As an AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner with offices across MENA, including Dubai, Istanbul, and London, we help businesses prepare their data, select the right customization method, and test results to ensure meaningful improvements. Our team also assists with managing version control and deployment strategies so custom models remain maintainable over time.
Customizing a model doesn’t stop at performance. Skyloop Cloud ensures that customers implement safety guardrails, such as response filters, logging, and access controls. Bedrock provides tools to monitor output quality and control who can use customized models. We support these efforts by aligning technical configurations with governance and compliance requirements, especially for regulated industries.
In the next article, we’ll look into building generative AI agents with Amazon Bedrock. You’ll discover how Bedrock agents interact with APIs, perform reasoning, and automate business workflows, and how Skyloop Cloud helps bring them to life.
