CoreWeave signs long-term supply agreement with Solidigm to secure memory amid AI component shortages
“Building on our close partnerships with NVIDIA and our OEM and ODM partners, our recent long-term agreement with Solidigm is one illustration of how we are derisking access to the critical inputs needed to serve our customers.”
Why it matters
A hyperscale AI cloud locking in multi-year memory supply directly with Solidigm signals that NAND/storage memory is a binding constraint in AI data center buildouts, not just GPUs. Solidigm is a subsidiary of SK hynix, giving investors a direct public proxy.
Investment implication
Bullish for SK hynix and the broader NAND/enterprise SSD supply chain (e.g., Samsung, Micron, Seagate). Expect more neo-clouds and hyperscalers to sign take-or-pay memory agreements, tightening storage pricing.
