CPU Compute

Run agent sandboxes, reinforcement learning, and data pipelines on bare-metal CPUs with NVIDIA Vera, AMD EPYC™, and Intel® Xeon® processors

The bottleneck

Your GPUs are only as fast as the CPUs feeding them

Agent sandboxes, reinforcement learning environments, and data pipelines run on CPUs. When those CPUs can't keep up, GPUs sit idle waiting for the next environment, rollout, or batch of data, and you pay for GPU time you aren't using. CoreWeave CPU compute runs these workloads on bare-metal instances, so CPU capacity keeps pace with your GPU clusters.

Agent sandboxes

Run code, use tools, and evaluate results in isolated environments that start fast and run side by side at scale.

Reinforcement learning

Generate the experience models learn from, with rollouts running in parallel, reward functions running in isolated sandboxes that snapshot and resume, and results feeding back into training.

Data pipelines

Preprocess, analyze, and move data fast enough that GPUs stay busy instead of waiting on the next batch.

Bare metal built for sandboxes

Bare-metal CPU instances built to run agent sandboxes at scale, from the processor to the network

Run on bare metal

Skip the virtualization layer and run sandboxes on single-tenant hardware, isolated at the hardware level, with none of the overhead that comes with it.

Built for the sandbox

NVIDIA Vera's Spatial Multithreading gives each thread its own dedicated share of the processor, so every sandbox performs at full load.

Scale on a non-blocking network

Our multi-plane network keeps traffic moving as sandboxes scale, while BlueField DPUs enforce tenant isolation and handle networking so your sandboxes keep their CPU cores.
