INFINITYWIFI’s Identity Gap Is the Market Finding
INFINITYWIFI’s Identity Gap Is the Market Finding intelligence summary explains the development, the public evidence available to readers, the organisations involved, the regional context, market exposure, and the infrastructure consequences that may follow. The Global Regional…

AWS plans 420Tbps US-Japan subsea cable
AWS is developing Sta’O’Nuk, a 20-fibre-pair subsea cable between Washington state and Japan that it expects to bring into service in 2029.

Datadog’s Observability Pipelines Move the Cost Cut Upstream
Datadog offers a way to reduce telemetry volume before it leaves a customer’s environment. That can lower a downstream bill, but it also moves the authority to discard operational evidence to a point where a later search cannot recover it.

A DDoS Scrubbing Contract Must Say Who Delivers the Clean Gigabit
A mitigation cloud can absorb an attack measured in terabits and still leave one customer's legitimate traffic dependent on a much smaller circuit, tunnel and router. The purchase decision is therefore not only how much hostile traffic the provider can discard. It is what clean…

GitHub's Attestation Proves a Build Path, Not a Safe Binary
A valid signature can establish where a binary came from while leaving the deployment decision unresolved. GitHub’s artifact attestation becomes a security control only when the consumer tests the recorded build route against an explicit trust policy.

Boldyn's £1bn Tube network must earn its 20-year lock-in
Four mobile operators can share one radio and fibre layer beneath London instead of attempting four separate builds. That is sensible engineering. It is also a twenty-year concentration of operating power, financed before the network produces mature cash. Boldyn has to prove that…

NTT DATA, Palo Alto set US$1bn alliance target
NTT DATA and Palo Alto Networks are expanding joint engineering and managed security services under a global alliance targeting US$1bn in business by 2029.

containerd: the runtime daemon most container users never see
Kubernetes, Docker and managed cloud platforms make containers look like applications, pods and services. Beneath those interfaces, containerd moves images, prepares filesystems, preserves runtime state and supervises processes. Its value comes from being deliberately incomplete…

DMTF: The Standards That Control Servers Below the Operating System
A server can be powered off, inspected, updated or reconfigured even when its operating system is unavailable. DMTF defines much of the language used for that privileged management plane, from Redfish APIs and MCTP transport to PLDM commands, SPDM identity and SMBIOS inventory.…

DMTF and the Language of Server Management
A server can be powered off, inspected, updated or reconfigured even when its operating system is down. DMTF defines much of the language of that privileged management plane: from the Redfish API and MCTP transport to PLDM commands, SPDM identity and SMBIOS inventory. Common…

NVM Express: how storage became a network protocol
NVMe began as a more efficient way to talk to the flash memory installed in a server. It has become a family of protocols capable of carrying the same command queues and namespaces over PCIe, TCP or RDMA. That continuity has made storage composable, while moving part of its…

NVM Express: how storage became a network protocol
NVMe began as a more efficient way to communicate with flash memory installed inside a server. It became a family of protocols capable of carrying the same queue, controller and namespace model over PCIe, TCP or RDMA. That continuity enabled capacity to be disaggregated, but…

NVM Express: How storage became a network protocol
NVMe began as a more efficient language for flash storage in the server. It became a protocol family that carries the same model of queues, controllers and namespaces over PCIe, TCP or RDMA. That continuity made storage composable but shifted complexity into the fabric, firmware…

NVM Express: How storage became a network protocol
NVMe began as a more efficient protocol for accessing flash inside servers and developed into a family of standards that carries consistent queue, controller and namespace semantics over PCIe, TCP and RDMA. It makes storage easier to pool and compose while shifting complexity…

NVM Express: How Drives Became a Network Protocol
NVMe began as a queue architecture for flash drives attached over PCI Express. Over time it grew into a modular protocol family that can reach storage over TCP and RDMA networks, supports resource discovery and multiple paths, describes specialised storage media models and…

UCIe's chiplet promise hinges on what lies beyond the link
UCIe has defined a die-to-die interface that reaches 64 GT/s and now covers 3D packaging, raw data traffic and package-wide management. The deciding question is whether these rules can support multi-vendor products when power delivery, thermals, manufacturing yield, software…

UCIe’s chiplet promise depends on more than the link
UCIe has defined a die-to-die interface reaching 64 GT/s and expanded its scope to 3D packaging, raw data traffic and whole-package management. The decisive test is whether these rules can support multi-vendor products while power, thermal design, manufacturing yield, software…

PCI-SIG: The common rules inside AI servers
An AI server may combine processors, accelerators, network cards, storage controllers, switches, retimers and security devices from competing vendors. PCI-SIG maintains a common interface that lets these components be discovered, negotiate capabilities and exchange data, while…
