Amazon to Sell Trainium AI Chips Externally in Direct Challenge to Nvidia

Amazon’s custom-chip division has hit a $20 billion run rate as the company prepares to sell its Trainium AI chips directly to external data centers, challenging Nvidia's market share.

Amazon is no longer just building AI chips for internal AWS use. It is preparing to sell its Trainium AI chips directly to external customers, turning itself from a cloud provider into a direct AI hardware competitor to NVIDIA. The bigger story is that hyperscalers (Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Meta) increasingly want to control their own AI infrastructure instead of depending entirely on NVIDIA.
