Meta expands AWS Graviton deal for agentic AI

Meta has signed an agreement to deploy AWS Graviton processors at scale. The deal marks a significant expansion of a long-standing partnership between the two companies as Meta builds its next generation of Artificial Intelligence.

The deployment starts with tens of millions of Graviton cores, with the flexibility to expand as Meta’s Artificial Intelligence capabilities grow. The agreement points to a shift in how Artificial Intelligence infrastructure is built, with CPUs taking on a larger role as agentic Artificial Intelligence workloads increase.

While GPUs remain essential for training large models, the rise of agentic Artificial Intelligence is creating massive demand for CPU-intensive workloads such as real-time reasoning, code generation, search, and orchestrating multi-step tasks. Graviton5 is positioned for these workloads, giving Meta the processing power to run them efficiently at scale.
