Amazon, through its cloud division Amazon Web Services (AWS), has entered a $38 billion partnership with OpenAI to enhance AI infrastructure and scalability. Announced on November 3, 2025, the agreement provides OpenAI access to AWS’s extensive cloud computing resources, including millions of CPUs and hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GPUs. This collaboration marks one of the largest AI infrastructure deployments in history and signifies a major strategic shift for OpenAI, which previously relied exclusively on Microsoft Azure.
