Europe’s data centre sector has entered what the European Data Centre Association describes as a phase of expansion and change. The State of European Data Centres 2026 [email wall] report is based on a combination of analysis of its existing data and a survey covering operators responsible for 59% of installed colocation IT power. The […]

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 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 […]

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 […]

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 years, sovereign cloud discussions focused on geography. Data had to stay inside a country. Infrastructure had to sit within defined borders. Control was assumed to follow location. That model is starting to break down. AI workloads, distributed applications, and stricter oversight rules are pushing organisations to rethink what sovereignty actually means in practice. Data […]
