GLM 5.3 (753B MoE) from Z.ai launches on Amazon Bedrock with strong coding and security benchmarks

Z.ai's GLM 5.3, a 753-billion-parameter mixture-of-experts model optimized for coding and long-horizon agentic tasks, is now available as a fully managed model on Amazon Bedrock. It builds on GLM 5 with improved coding benchmark results, standout cybersecurity capabilities (CyberGym score of 84.5), and deeper Bedrock integration including OpenAI-compatible APIs, prompt caching, cross-Region inference and service tiers. AWS also demonstrates using GLM 5.3 with the open-source Strix agent for authorized penetration testing of your own applications.
