Verizon Partners With AWS to Build Fiber Network for AI Infrastructure
Verizon and Amazon Web Services have forged a strategic partnership to construct high-capacity fiber routes connecting AWS data centers, specifically designed to support the escalating demands of artificial intelligence applications. The Verizon AI Connect initiative will establish long-haul, low-latency pathways to optimize performance for generative AI workloads.
Financial terms remain undisclosed, but the collaboration extends Verizon's existing work with AWS in private mobile edge computing. The MOVE aligns with cloud providers' broader capital expenditure plans as AI-driven revenue growth accelerates across the sector.
