Nebius September digest: Microsoft deal, NVIDIA Exemplar Status & benchmark results

September was a landmark month for Nebius. From a major new customer for our AI infrastructure to industry-leading performance recognition, we’ve made strides that directly strengthen the systems you rely on.

Nebius announces a multi-billion dollar agreement with Microsoft for AI infrastructure

We’re excited to announce a new agreement with Microsoft that accelerates the growth of our AI cloud business into 2026. Starting later this year, Nebius will provide dedicated capacity to Microsoft from our upcoming data center in Vineland, New Jersey.

  • CNBC: Our Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer Roman Chernin spoke on the deal, fundraising, and growing AI infrastructure demand.

  • TBPN: Chief Revenue Officer Marc Boroditsky shared how this strengthens our mission to deliver an ML-centric stack for developers at every stage.

Nebius is one of the first NVIDIA partners to achieve Exemplar Status!

We’re proud to have earned NVIDIA Exemplar Cloud Status for training workloads on NVIDIA H200 GPUs. This designation confirms that Nebius infrastructure provides dependable efficiency, resiliency and scale — not just peak specs. For teams building frontier AI models, this means fewer surprises, more uptime, and infrastructure you can truly count on.

The results are in: bare-metal performance proven in MLPerf® Inference v5.1

Our latest milestone for reliable performance at scale. With the latest submission of MLPerf® Inference v5.1 benchmarks, Nebius achieved leading performance results for three AI systems accelerated by the most in-demand NVIDIA systems on the market: NVIDIA GB200 NVL72, HGX B200 and HGX H200.
