On September 15, 2026, Backblaze Inc.'s (BLZE) B2 Cloud Storage began attracting substantial contracts with AI companies, including CoreWeave, a move anticipated to increase future revenue visibility and reduce reliance on acquiring numerous smaller customers, although it may temporarily affect profit margins. This followed Backblaze's announcement on September 14, 2026, that it would exhibit and present as a sponsor at AI Infra Summit 2026, taking place from September 15–17 at the Santa Clara Convention Center. The company, a provider of high-performance capacity storage for AI, noted that AI infrastructure teams face a growing challenge as their datasets exceed the affordable capacity of premium flash storage.
