On September 30, CoreWeave announced that the NVIDIA Vera CPU is coming soon to its cloud platform as standalone bare-metal capacity, with no launch date given.
Vera is an Arm-based CPU with 88 custom cores; the stated node configuration is two Vera CPUs, 1.5 TB of RAM, 15.36 TB of NVMe storage and a BlueField-4 DPU. CoreWeave says a single rack can hold 128 Vera CPUs and support more than 11,000 concurrent agent environments. The claim of over 3x faster sandbox startup is CoreWeave's own test, and the x86 CPU it was compared against is not named.
The CPU previously shipped only inside Vera Rubin NVL72 racks; this announcement makes it a standalone offering, and it is an announcement rather than a live service.
