Microsoft is tightening its grip on the neocloud data centers it rents, and the three names caught in the review are Nebius, IREN and Nscale. Bloomberg News reported on Nov. 5, 2026 that the company has stepped up oversight of some projects involving those providers, citing people familiar with the matter. Reuters updated its own version of the story on Nov. 6. No named source went on the record, and Microsoft has not announced a formal policy change.
