Description

Strategic Intelligence: Deep Dive into Neoclouds

Summary

Neoclouds are cloud providers focused on renting high-end graphics processing units (GPUs) for artificial intelligence (AI) workloads. They power hyperscalers that build large language models (LLMs) and also serve companies with pressing AI needs (start-ups, research labs, and enterprises). Nvidia is central in this ecosystem, both supplying hardware and investing in neoclouds. Notable neoclouds companies include CoreWeave, Lambda, Nebius, Nscale, and Crusoe.

Key Highlights
  • Neoclouds do not compete with traditional cloud providers. In an environment still defining how AI will scale, neoclouds can serve as valuable partners, acquisition targets, or sources of GPU capacity when the big cloud providers face demand spikes. In addition, this new class of cloud providers is deeply tied to data center operators, making it difficult for neoclouds to compete with hyperscalers, companies that own and control their massive, vertically integrated facilities.
  • High revenue concentration is one of the main risks for neoclouds. For most neoclouds, a few large customers account for most of their sales, making them highly vulnerable if a major contract is lost. These companies also rely heavily on a limited number of hardware suppliers, such as Nvidia or AMD.
Scope
  • Today, more than 100 neoclouds exist worldwide. Around 10 to 15 are operating at a meaningful scale in the US, and their presence is growing across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
  • This report provides an overview of the neocloud theme, including analysis of neoclouds strengths, a comparison between hyperscalers and neoclouds, and an evaluation of likely future scenarios for neocloud providers.
Reasons to Buy
  • Neoclouds are gaining significant market attention. Though many of these players are small, their potential to scale significantly grows as AI adoption increases. This report will help you understand what neocloud is, who the main players are, and how this disruptive theme will develop.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
