NTT Global Data Centers, part of Japan’s NTT, is expanding its capacity in response to sustained growth in demand for digital infrastructure linked to cloud and AI. The company plans to increase its capacity to about four gigawatts via around 34 projects, including several where development has begun. Doug Adams, the subsidiary’s CEO, said the […]
Large healthcare companies are turning to cloud platforms as they try to connect fragmented health data and create new digital services for patients. A new initiative from CVS Health shows how one of the largest healthcare providers in the US is using cloud infrastructure to build a system designed to link data and care providers […]
Samsung moved artificial intelligence closer to live telecom infrastructure at MWC 2026, where it demonstrated AI running alongside radio functions inside a cloud-native network stack. At MWC in Barcelona, Samsung Electronics showcased an AI-native, software-driven network architecture built around its virtualised radio access network (vRAN) platform. Samsung integrated its vRAN software with accelerated computing from […]
European data rules shape how cloud services are built and deployed, pushing software providers to offer options that keep data and control inside the region. A new move by customer experience software firm Genesys shows how vendors are preparing for that shift, as more organisations weigh compliance risks when choosing where to run cloud workloads. […]
Cloud capacity is becoming one of the main constraints on enterprise AI adoption, and Amazon’s latest spending plans show how providers are responding.

The agreement will see Corning supply its fibre optic technology to Meta’s data centres. Meta has reportedly agreed to a deal in which it […]
Alphabet’s expanding AI cloud infrastructure push shows how demand is putting real pressure on the systems that power enterprise computing. Hyperscale providers are responding by sharply increasing spending on compute capacity, but supply remains tight as AI workloads grow faster than data centre buildouts. Alphabet’s latest earnings call offered a clear window into that tension. […]
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 […]
One of the challenges facing cloud and digital infrastructure is the widening gap between committed data centre capacity and infrastructure that actually reaches construction or completion. Enterprises that depend on cloud services, colocation providers or use hybrid infrastructure will see the issue’s implications for cost, resilience, deployment timelines, and strategic planning. That’s according to a […]
Google Cloud has agreed to a multiyear security services partnership with Palo Alto Networks as enterprise use of AI in cloud environments grows.
