Insights
NVIDIA's DGX Cloud Lepton creates a global GPU marketplace, strengthening its AI ecosystem dominance while addressing critical compute scarcity.
NVIDIA's announcement of DGX Cloud Lepton represents a strategic evolution in their business model, moving beyond hardware to become the central nervous system of global AI computation. By establishing this marketplace connecting developers with GPU resources across multiple providers, NVIDIA is effectively creating a "GPU clearing house" that cements their position at the center of the AI ecosystem.
The timing is particularly significant as AI development faces unprecedented computational bottlenecks. By aggregating GPU capacity from ten named cloud providers (CoreWeave, Crusoe, Lambda, etc.), NVIDIA is addressing the critical shortage of compute resources that has become the primary constraint for AI advancement. This marketplace approach allows NVIDIA to expand its footprint without massive capital expenditures on data centers.
The integration with NVIDIA's software stack—NIM, NeMo, Blueprints, and Cloud Functions—creates powerful ecosystem lock-in effects. Developers who build on this platform become increasingly dependent on NVIDIA's full technology stack, making it harder for competitors to gain traction even if they develop comparable hardware.
The introduction of Exemplar Clouds and benchmarking tools represents another layer of ecosystem control. By setting performance standards that partners must meet, NVIDIA is ensuring quality while simultaneously dictating the technical direction of the entire industry. This positions NVIDIA not just as a chip designer but as the de facto standards body for AI infrastructure.
Most critically, this platform allows NVIDIA to capture value from AI computation without owning all the physical infrastructure, creating a capital-efficient model to monetize the AI boom while mitigating risks associated with direct competition against cloud hyperscalers.

TAIPEI, Taiwan, May 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- COMPUTEX -- NVIDIA today announced NVIDIA DGX Cloud Lepton™ — an AI platform with a compute marketplace that connects the world’s developers building agentic and physical AI applications with tens of thousands of GPUs, available from a global network of cloud providers.
To meet the demand for AI, NVIDIA Cloud Partners (NCPs) including CoreWeave, Crusoe, Firmus, Foxconn, GMI Cloud, Lambda, Nebius, Nscale, Softbank Corp. and Yotta Data Services will offer NVIDIA Blackwell and other NVIDIA architecture GPUs on the DGX Cloud Lepton marketplace.
Developers can tap into GPU compute capacity in specific regions for both on-demand and long-term computing, supporting strategic and sovereign AI operational requirements. Leading cloud service providers and GPU marketplaces are expected to also participate in the DGX Cloud Lepton marketplace.
“NVIDIA DGX Cloud Lepton connects our network of global GPU cloud providers with AI developers,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “Together with our NCPs, we’re building a planetary-scale AI factory.”
DGX Cloud Lepton helps address the critical challenge of securing reliable, high-performance GPU resources by unifying access to cloud AI services and GPU capacity across the NVIDIA compute ecosystem. The platform integrates with the NVIDIA software stack, including NVIDIA NIM™ and NeMo™ microservices, NVIDIA Blueprints and NVIDIA Cloud Functions, to accelerate and simplify the development and deployment of AI applications.
For cloud providers, DGX Cloud Lepton provides management software that delivers real-time GPU health diagnostics and automates root-cause analysis, eliminating manual operations and reducing downtime.
Key benefits of the platform include:
- Improved productivity and flexibility: Offers a unified experience across development, training and inference, helping boost productivity. Developers can purchase GPU capacity directly from participating cloud providers through the marketplace or bring their own compute clusters, giving them greater flexibility and control.
- Frictionless deployment: Enables deployment of AI applications across multi-cloud and hybrid environments with minimal operational burden, using integrated services for inference, testing and training workloads.
- Agility and sovereignty: Gives developers quick access to GPU resources in specific regions, enabling compliance with data sovereignty regulations and meeting low-latency requirements for sensitive workloads.
- Predictable performance: Provides participating cloud providers enterprise-grade performance, reliability and security, ensuring a consistent user experience.
A New Bar for AI Cloud Performance
NVIDIA today also announced NVIDIA Exemplar Clouds to help NCPs enhance security, usability, performance and resiliency, using NVIDIA’s expertise, reference hardware and software and operational tools.
NVIDIA Exemplar Clouds tap into NVIDIA DGX™ Cloud Benchmarking, a comprehensive suite of tools and recipes for optimizing workload performance on AI platforms and quantifying the relationship between cost and performance.
Yotta Data Services is the first NCP in the Asia-Pacific region to join the NVIDIA Exemplar Cloud initiative.
