Frederick rejects Catellus's deal over future local rules
The county has rejected a proposed community-benefits agreement and extended a separate hold on data-centre applications. A precise prior-approval exception means neither decision should be read as a blanket shutdown.

A proposed extension of access to two Logix fibre connections would keep billing and other cloud-dependent services connected while the utility prepares a competitive procurement.

Braze’s messaging and infrastructure bills drove 73% of its delivery-cost increase
Braze grew revenue by more than a quarter, but the cost of delivering that growth rose faster. Two disclosed third-party lines explain nearly three quarters of the increase. They reveal where the platform pays a toll—and why neither AI excitement nor a headline gross margin can…

Texas makes missing water records a data-centre permit risk
The state's latest directive reaches beyond a prospective grid audit to past water-use returns. For developers, evidence that a survey is complete matters more than a claim that cooling is efficient.
Africa National Telecom Trends
NigComSat-2A needs its own capacity catalogue
Nigeria's satellite operator has signed for a new spacecraft. The next commercial question is what a customer will be able to buy from it, on what terms, and through which ground services.

ServiceTitan’s US$527 million contract measure does not capture its Max push
ServiceTitan is promoting Max as a larger, AI-enabled package while more of its commercial motion depends on upsells and usage. Yet the company’s principal contracted-revenue measure deliberately leaves much of that surface outside its frame. The gap does not weaken the quarter…

Kyivstar's Odesa 5G pilot puts LTE relief first
The fifth trial location adds a way to move traffic off the existing mobile network, under existing tariffs. Its business case needs evidence from the customers who remain on 4G as well as those trying 5G.

NEXTDC's cash hedge does not cancel dilution
The data-centre developer is spending A$93.61 million on capped calls alongside its convertible notes. The protection is economic; the distinction matters for both construction cash and future ownership.

Next G Alliance puts spectrum timing on the 6G investment agenda
A new set of industry recommendations focuses attention on the steps between identifying airwaves and using them commercially. For network investors, that sequence matters more than a headline total.

NETSCOUT’s 12.7% growth came with early government orders and a US$17.9m backlog decline
NETSCOUT began fiscal 2027 with faster revenue, better margins and some government-related orders that arrived sooner than expected. Its product backlog simultaneously fell from March. The useful question is not which number cancels the other, but which clocks have moved into…

Neat adds Cliq choice, but room control stays central
Zoho Cliq gives Neat another route into workplace meeting rooms. The distinction for buyers is between choosing an application and controlling the fleet that runs it.

Equatys stages its capital before testing shared satellite demand
Space42 and Viasat's binding agreement sharpens the funding plan for shared space infrastructure. The tower-company economics still need paying users with compatible demand.

Akamai’s US$2.8bn CIS contract total arrives before the capacity-and-margin receipt
A signed infrastructure contract can be commercially important before it is economically complete. Akamai now has a large disclosed pool of multi-year Cloud Infrastructure Services commitments. The harder evidence will arrive as financing becomes installed capacity, customers use…
