Nokia has been selected by CoreWeave to deploy its IP routing and optical transport portfolios globally as part of an extensive backbone build-out, with immediate roll-out across its data centers in the US and Europe.
CoreWeave powers the most compute-intensive and complex workloads and AI-centered applications. This requires a networking backbone that provides super-fast and reliable customer access to CoreWeave’s services as well as critical network connectivity to support CoreWeave’s AI cloud infrastructure.
Commenting on this development, Jim Julson, Director of Networking at CoreWeave, said, “With the explosion of demand centered around the infrastructure…Nokia has proven to be a critical partner and we have no doubt that as CoreWeave continues to scale, Nokia will be there to help facilitate a world-class cloud experience for all our customers.”
Nokia’s IP and Optical Portfolios Power CoreWeave
As requirements for generative AI, ML, graphics and rendering (VFX) continue to grow, the Nokia IP and Optical portfolios, along with high-performance FP5 IP routing silicon, will provide the high programmability and customization that will allow CoreWeave to evolve with changing traffic behaviors and growth.
CoreWeave’s IP backbone is being built with the FP5-based Nokia 7750 Service Router (SR), which provides massive routing scale, 800Gb/s speeds, and strong Ethernet VPN (EVPN) support, as well as Nokia’s ultra-reliable, secure, high-performance Service Router Operating System (SROS).
Moreover, optical transport and data center interconnection across the WAN will leverage the Nokia 1830 Photonic Service Interconnect (PSI) solution.
The Nokia Network Services Platform (NSP) will automate network functions and optimize resource allocation.
Vach Kompella, Senior Vice President and General Manager of IP Networks business at Nokia, said, “As the hyperscaler behind some of the biggest AI enterprises and labs in the world, CoreWeave is at the forefront of innovation in unexplored territory. That requires proven reliability, performance at scale without compromise, and the increased efficiency Nokia’s automation solutions bring.”
