As CoreWeave belongs to the small group of AI cloud providers what some people name neoclouds, others GPU-as-a-Service, probably a too limited term, revenue obviously follows a stellar trajectory. Sequentially up 12%, the annual revenue skyrockets reaching $1.365 billion, up 134% YoY. The ARR approaches $4,3 billion.

This is fueled by an amazing AI demands and the beauty of virtuous circles, in fact close partnerships, between Nvidia, AI firms, META, neoclouds plus "classic" cloud providers and we can even add other processors and accelerators companies such as AMD plus players like SambaNova, Cerebras or Groq and obviously investors,

These group of players signed mega-deals and obviously these ones can't be delivered immediately as they're so big and also multi-years contracts by nature. As said, they feed and sustain a limited group of companies. It means that the backlog explodes representing almost 13x the ARR as contracts elements are not all available. We'll monitor carefully these backlogs aspects as it represents exceptional amounts that invite some people to reintroduce a bubble effect...

Regarding storage associated services, CoreWeave lists selected several key partners such as DDN, IBM with Storage Scale, Pure Storage, Vast Data and Weka, but the recent "big" deal with Vast Data confirms their choice.
