amsterdam, January 5, 2026 – Nebius (NASDAQ: NBIS) announced today that it will be among the first NVIDIA Cloud Partners to deploy the next-generation NVIDIA Rubin platform through its Nebius AI Cloud and Nebius Token Factory. This move will unlock next-generation reasoning and agentic AI capabilities for customers starting in the second half of 2026.
Expanding AI Infrastructure with NVIDIA Rubin
Nebius will integrate the NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 across its full-stack infrastructure, with data centers located in both the US and Europe. This expansion will provide customers with regional availability and control over their next-generation AI applications. The Rubin platform, launched at CES 2026,is designed to handle the demands of complex AI workloads,including agentic AI,advanced reasoning,and large-scale mixture-of-experts (MoE) models.
What is NVIDIA Rubin?
the Vera Rubin NVL72 is engineered to optimize performance and cost-efficiency for demanding AI tasks. It excels at processing long sequences of tokens, crucial for multi-step problem-solving. This makes it ideal for applications requiring advanced reasoning and complex AI interactions.
Key Partnerships and Executive Perspectives
“We are proud to be one of the first on the market to offer Vera rubin GPUs as we fuel the next wave of AI innovation,” said Arkady volozh, founder and CEO of Nebius. “By integrating Vera Rubin into Nebius AI Cloud and our inference platform Nebius Token Factory, we’re giving AI innovators and enterprises the infrastructure they need to develop agentic and reasoning AI systems faster and more efficiently.”
Dave Salvator, director of accelerated computing products at NVIDIA, added, “Leading in the era of agentic AI requires infrastructure that is purpose-built for scale, performance, reliability and cost efficiency. Nebius’s AI-native infrastructure will enable customers to deploy NVIDIA Rubin-powered AI applications in production with confidence.”
Nebius AI Cloud and Token Factory
The Rubin accelerated computing platform will be available through Nebius AI Cloud and will serve as the computational layer in Nebius Token Factory. This complements existing NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 and NVIDIA Grace Blackwell Ultra NV72 capacity, providing customers with a wider range of platforms optimized for different AI workload profiles.
Nebius AI Cloud offers direct infrastructure access with benchmark-validated, bare-metal performance. Nebius Token Factory, an enterprise-ready inference and post-training platform, allows customers to train, distill, and serve open-source models with predictable latency, performance, and cost.
Commitment to Performance and Validation
Nebius consistently delivers benchmark-aligned performance at scale and is an NVIDIA Exemplar cloud Partner. This means its infrastructure is validated against NVIDIA reference architectures and benchmarks, ensuring that Rubin-based workloads perform as expected from the outset.
