Claude models launch on Azure with NVIDIA GB300 GPUs

Anthropic’s Claude models in Microsoft Foundry are now generally available on Microsoft Azure, running on NVIDIA GB300 Blackwell Ultra GPUs. The deployment gives Azure-native enterprises access to infrastructure designed for building autonomous and specialized AI agents that can support essential business workflows.

The offering runs on NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 systems with NVIDIA Quantum-X800 InfiniBand networking, enabling enterprises to develop more capable agentic systems. These systems can include autonomous agents and specialized sub-agents that operate across business domains to perform advanced tasks.

NVIDIA is also working with Anthropic to integrate NVIDIA tools into the Anthropic stack, extending developer capabilities and helping teams give Claude agents domain-specific skills. Enterprises can use NVIDIA verified agent skills and the NVIDIA Secure Agent Workspace Reference Design to run Claude agents in governed environments where identity, network access, credentials and runtime policy are controlled at the infrastructure level.

The launch builds on a strategic partnership Microsoft, NVIDIA and Anthropic announced in November to broaden enterprise access to Claude and make Anthropic models available on NVIDIA accelerated computing.
