Anthropic commits $11.6 billion to Akamai cloud capacity
The seven-year agreement supports CPU workloads and could expand by another $9 billion; Akamai also issued Anthropic warrants tied to the relationship.
TLDR
Anthropic has committed about $11.6 billion over seven years for dedicated Akamai cloud capacity and managed support services. Akamai says the infrastructure will support Anthropic’s growing CPU workloads, with service beginning to ramp in 2027. A potential expansion could add as much as $9 billion, but that amount is not yet committed. The deal also includes warrants that could give Anthropic an economic stake equivalent to roughly 5% of Akamai’s common shares if all vesting conditions are met.
