In one sentence

JumpStart is a model starting point in SageMaker, Bedrock is a foundation-model API platform, and Amazon Q is a ready-made assistant.

Key points

  • Deploy, fine-tune, and control existing models in SageMaker → JumpStart.
  • Build your own generative-AI app with managed foundation-model APIs → Bedrock.
  • Need an enterprise or developer assistant without building the product from scratch → Amazon Q.

Exam focus

  • First decide whether the question needs a model, an application platform, or a ready-made assistant.

Common pitfalls

  • Do not choose by product name alone; confirm data type, latency, control, operations, and cost constraints.

Remember

JumpStart finds models, Bedrock builds apps, Amazon Q is the assistant.
