Microsoft to Invest $10B in CoreWeave AI Servers, Boosting HPC Capacity by 2030
Microsoft increases its Artificial Intelligence efforts with multiple billions of dollars investment into CoreWeave while enhancing infrastructure for high-performance computations.
Microsoft is going to invest a lot of money in the artificial intelligence (AI) startup CoreWeave. Newly released documents to investors say that the business has agreed to lease nearly $10 billion worth of servers from the startup by 2030.
This big deal is worth more than half of CoreWeave’s $17 billion in contracts with clients. It makes Microsoft a major player in expanding AI infrastructure through partnerships.
This $10 billion investment signifies the intensity with which Microsoft is focused on integrating AI enhancement into all of its products. One of the most important players in this field was CoreWeave, providing high-performance computing services, and would like to see its sales increase significantly in 2025, rising to nearly eight billion U.S. dollars. CoreWeave is a significant infrastructure supplier, and such anticipated growth supports the notion since the requirement for AI processing is increasing.
Microsoft and CoreWeave have not publicly disclosed any partnerships, but it would make sense to fit in a broader AI strategy where Microsoft is pursuing partnerships, acquisitions, and massive investments in infrastructures.
CoreWeave has been making sure that there is enough space in the data center to handle the growing amount of AI work. The business has a multi-year deal with Core Scientific, a Bitcoin mining company, which recently made more space on its servers for CoreWeave. The new contract will add 120 MW of power to CoreWeave’s HPC operations. This will bring CoreWeave’s overall power capacity across six Core Scientific locations to 500 MW.
This expansion underlines CoreWeave’s focus on its scaling process, which is consistent with the increasing need for an effective computing environment as the AI market expands, a need that Microsoft wants to fulfill as it strengthens its AI ventures.
