AWS and NVIDIA expand partnership for next-gen AI infrastructure
AWS and NVIDIA announced a major expansion of their strategic collaboration, with plans to deploy 2 million additional NVIDIA GPUs across AWS's global infrastructure in 2027-2028. The expansion deepens their work across AI factories, CPUs, networking, open models, data processing, and robotics-including bringing NVIDIA Vera CPU-based infrastructure to AWS, connecting Trainium chips with NVLink Fusion, and building secure AI factories for the U.S. government. These co-engineered solutions help customers accelerate AI development at unprecedented scale across agentic AI, scientific discovery, enterprise automation, and physical AI.
