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 […]

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 […]

For many European organisations, cloud decisions are no longer just about cost, scale, or performance. As companies assess options such as Amazon’s sovereign cloud, choices are increasingly shaped by questions of control: where data sits, who can access it, and how exposed critical systems are to foreign laws and political pressure. That tension helps explain […]

Large organisations often expect cloud projects to bring clarity and control. In practice, the work can introduce new layers of cost and complexity. That tension is now visible in the Bank of England, where a long-running effort to move internal systems to the cloud has grown far beyond its original budget. Procurement records show the […]

Building autonomous vehicles is no longer just a question of sensors and software. It has become a test of how well companies can manage vast amounts of data, run large-scale simulations, and validate safety across millions of scenarios before a vehicle ever reaches the road. For automotive firms working on self-driving systems, the ability to […]

The cloud market has long been shaped by a familiar group of hyperscalers. What is changing now is not just who runs cloud platforms, but who is starting to build the infrastructure behind them. Recent reporting that Brookfield Asset Management is preparing to launch a cloud business points to a broader shift in how large […]

Live video changes the pressure on a streaming business. Unlike on-demand shows, live events do not allow for retries, quiet fixes, or delayed updates. If something fails, viewers notice immediately. Over the past year, Netflix has been reworking how it handles that risk by building live streaming directly into its core cloud systems, rather than […]

For Airbus, the cloud is no longer just an IT decision. It has become a question of control. Europe’s largest aerospace group is weighing a move away from two of its most important technology suppliers—Google and Microsoft—as it looks for a cloud environment governed entirely by European rules. According to reporting by The Register, Airbus […]
