AI is starting to change how large organisations use cloud data platforms. What began as a way to store information cheaply and scale analytics has become central to reporting, dashboards, and business intelligence. The shift now is not where data lives in the cloud, but who can work with it and how quickly insights can […]
If you are a security leader, you will need to be able to answer the following questions: where is your sensitive data? Who can access it? And is it being used safely? In the age of generative AI, it’s increasingly becoming a struggle to answer all three. An October whitepaper from Concentric AI outlines the […]
The global market for data centre design services is on course for sustained growth as operators expand capacity and adapt facilities to new technical demands. According to a report from The Business Research Company, the sector should reach a value of $38.36 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 11.8%. According to the figures, […]
Japanese multinational investment holding company, SoftBank, has launched Infrinia AI Cloud OS, a software stack custom-designed for AI data centres. Designed by the company’s Infrinia team, Infrinia AI Cloud OS lets data centre operators deliver Kubernetes-as-a-service (KaaS) in multi-tenant settings, and offer inference-as-a-service (Inf-aaS). Therefore, customers can access LLMs via simple APIs that can be […]
Insurance company Willis has introduced an eight-point digital infrastructure framework that classifies data centres as a standalone systemic insurance class. The firm says the change reflects a change in the risk profile of data centres. It’s been influenced by the role DC assets now play in cloud and AI workloads. Announcing the framework on 28 […]
Large financial institutions rarely overhaul their technology in one dramatic move. Change tends to happen in stages, with systems gradually shifted, consolidated, and refined over time. Nationwide Building Society’s expanded cloud services partnership with AWS fits squarely into that pattern. Rather than signalling a new direction, the agreement reflects a decision to go further down […]
For many large organisations, cloud computing still sits in the background. It runs internal systems, supports analytics teams, and scales storage when needed. What is changing is where cloud shows up in the work itself — including in performance-critical environments like Formula 1 or F1, where Mercedes is using cloud systems to support real-time decisions […]
China’s cloud market is entering a new phase, shaped less by basic storage and more by who can support large AI workloads at scale. Established providers still dominate, but the list of serious contenders is starting to change. ByteDance, long tied to consumer apps like TikTok and Douyin, is now making a clearer push into […]
Cross-tenant migration is often perceived as a purely technical task. In reality, it is one of the most sensitive governance operations in modern cloud environments. When organisations move data between tenants, they are transferring content and redefining how identities, permissions, applications, and collaboration models interact. For enterprise IT teams, this makes cross-tenant migration a high-risk, […]
The cloud is no longer treated as a place to experiment. For many enterprises, it has become the default environment for running AI systems that support daily work. That shift, more than any headline figure, explains why cloud spending continues to climb. Instead of short trials or isolated pilots, AI workloads are now tied to […]
