November 14, 2026Self-hosted Claude Managed Agents: the AKS and Foundry path
Anthropic's self-hosted Claude Managed Agents beta, opened 12 November 2026, puts the agent server, PostgreSQL session store and sandboxes on your own AKS cluster, with model calls routed to Microsoft Foundry under an Entra ID identity. Here is what you run, which hosted features disappear, why AKS accepts only publicInternet egress, how Foundry CCU billing replaces the $0.08 session-hour fee, and why the residency win covers storage but not inference.
