Nebius Rolls Out AI Cloud 3.6 With Built‑In Agent and Enterprise Controls

The release signals stronger platform readiness for regulated production AI workloads while raising pressure on Nebius to deliver on large capacity and power projects.

Overview

  • Nebius announced the Nebius AI Cloud 3.6 release on Wednesday, June 24, adding a web‑console AI agent called Nebius Echo that lets users manage infrastructure with natural language.
  • The update adds developer workflow tools such as improved search, notifications, one‑click SkyPilot integration, and finer control over Kubernetes and container images for engineers.
  • Nebius introduced enterprise security features including a customer‑managed Key Management Service and Workload Identity Federation to support regulated production deployments.
  • Cloud 3.6 brings storage and performance changes—local SSD support for GPU servers and an intelligent object storage class—and new FinOps budgeting and alerting tools to help cut runtime costs.
  • The product push comes as Nebius faces heightened investor and operational scrutiny from recent large deals, a $2 billion Nvidia investment, an acquisition and Nasdaq‑100 inclusion that together increase expectations for on‑time capacity builds and power sourcing.
