Palantir Technologies and Microsoft have announced an expanded partnership to deliver AI and analytics capabilities to U.S. defense and intelligence agencies. Palantir's products, including Gotham, Foundry, Apollo, and the Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), will be deployed on Microsoft's Azure Government and classified cloud environments. This collaboration will integrate Microsoft's large language models via Azure OpenAI Service, allowing operators to build AI-driven operational workloads across various defense and intelligence verticals. As part of the initiative, Palantir will be among the early adopters of Azure's OpenAI Service in classified settings, with both companies providing bootcamps for defense and intelligence personnel to trial the technology. The announcement has resulted in a rise in Palantir's stock and reflects the company's growing role in national security.
