Amazon Web Services (AWS) and OpenAI have forged a multiyear, $38 billion strategic partnership that will enable AWS’s infrastructure to run and scale OpenAI’s core artificial intelligence (AI) workloads.
The rapid advancement of AI technology has created unprecedented demand for computing power.
OpenAI is accessing AWS compute, comprising hundreds of thousands of state-of-the-art NVIDIA GPUs, with the ability to expand to tens of millions of CPUs to rapidly scale agentic workloads.
OpenAI will immediately start utilizing AWS compute as part of this partnership, with all capacity targeted to be deployed before the end of 2026, and the ability to expand further into 2027 and beyond.
The infrastructure deployment AWS is building for OpenAI features a sophisticated architectural design optimized for maximum AI processing efficiency and performance. Clustering the NVIDIA GPUs via Amazon EC2 UltraServers on the same network enables low-latency performance
