Meta Strikes Multi-Year AWS Deal to Deploy Tens of Millions of Graviton Cores

The move signals a shift to CPU capacity for agentic AI workloads.

Overview

  • Meta and AWS agreed to roll out tens of millions of Graviton compute cores at launch, a scale that places Meta among the largest Graviton customers.
  • Nafea Bshara of AWS said the cooperation will run for three to five years.
  • The companies say agentic AI drives heavy CPU needs for real-time inference, code generation, search, and multi-step task flows.
  • AWS detailed Graviton5 chips with a 3 nm process, 192 cores, a cache five times larger than before, 35% lower inter-core latency, and higher bandwidth.
  • AWS will supply its Nitro technology so Meta can run its own virtual machines, building on Meta’s existing use of Amazon Bedrock.
