Cato Networks, CrowdStrike Unify Network and Endpoint Security - 📅 - Cato Networks and CrowdStrike have linked their platforms to combine network and endpoint security telemetry, expanding visibility across enterprise environments as security teams struggle with fragmented tooling, AI-assisted attacks and mounting operational workloads. The integration also reflects growing demand for security products capable of exchanging contextual data rather than operating as isolated detection systems across organizations globally.

Security vendors have spent years arguing that better visibility leads to better security. Enterprises have spent those same years stitching together dashboards, agents, SIEM platforms, and network appliances that rarely agree on what [...]
Fujitsu Sells Australian Data Center Unit to Next Capital - 📅 - Fujitsu has agreed to sell its Australian data center business to private equity firm Next Capital, marking another step in the company's shift away from infrastructure ownership toward higher-margin technology services. The transaction remains subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions, while Fujitsu says operations and customer services will continue unchanged until completion later this year.

Owning data centers has become a more complicated business than it once was. Rising power costs, AI-driven infrastructure investment, tightening capital requirements, and growing customer expectations around sovereign cloud capabilities have altered the economics. For global [...]
Cisco and Tech Mahindra Unite on Managed SSE for Enterprises - 📅 - Tech Mahindra and Cisco have agreed to jointly deliver managed Security Service Edge offerings aimed at enterprises confronting increasingly fragmented security environments, combining Cisco's Secure Access platform with Tech Mahindra's integration and managed services capabilities as organizations reassess zero trust architectures, hybrid workforce protection, and governance around emerging generative AI deployments and workloads.

Enterprise security spending has become less about adding another security appliance and more about reducing operational friction. That creates an opportunity for systems integrators with large managed services businesses, especially as security teams struggle [...]
HPE, ASUS, MSI, Supermicro and MiTAC Launch AMD EPYC Servers - 📅 - AMD's latest EPYC processor launch has quickly become less about CPUs and more about how server manufacturers believe enterprise AI infrastructure will evolve over the next several years. At AMD Advancing AI 2026 in San Francisco, hardware vendors unveiled remarkably similar strategies: denser compute, faster interconnects, liquid cooling, and architectures intended to keep pace with increasingly demanding AI, cloud, and high-performance computing workloads.

For enterprise infrastructure buyers, the announcements highlight a market entering another transition. GPUs continue to dominate AI headlines, yet every accelerator cluster still depends on CPUs to orchestrate storage, networking, [...]
Dutch Data Center Heat Project Targets Grid Constraints - 📅 - A Dutch municipality, greenhouse growers and a data center operator have agreed to develop a heat network using recovered server energy. The project aims to replace natural gas, reduce pressure on a constrained electricity grid and test whether digital infrastructure can serve regional industry. Similar schemes are attracting attention as power shortages complicate data center expansion worldwide.

The agreement brings together a municipal authority, an agricultural energy cooperative, data center developer Switch Datacenters and regional energy partners. A planned facility will capture heat generated by servers and supply it to nearby commercial greenhouses through a district network. [...]
Zayo Finds AI Workloads Driving Higher Fiber Capacity Demand - 📅 - Enterprise spending on high-capacity network infrastructure is accelerating as companies adapt their systems for artificial intelligence, highlighting a growing shift in technology budgets beyond chips and data centers. Analysis released by digital infrastructure provider Zayo, covering nearly 6,000 customers during 2025, points to sustained demand for dark fiber and wavelength services as AI deployments become increasingly distributed.

Zayo's second annual Bandwidth Report arrives as companies are discovering that acquiring GPUs is only one part of deploying AI at scale. Moving data between training sites, cloud environments, inference systems and users can become expensive and [...]
NovoServe Expands Amsterdam Bare Metal Capacity by 150 Racks - 📅 - Dutch IaaS company NovoServe is adding 150 racks of bare metal capacity across two data centers in the Amsterdam area, expanding at existing facilities operated by NorthC and maincubes. The company plans 80 racks and 400kW at Oude Meer this summer, followed by 70 racks and 300kW at Schiphol Rijk in two phases over the coming months, according to NovoServe in total.

The expansion is concentrated at sites NovoServe already uses, rather than at a new campus. It is a capacity increase inside an established operating footprint, divided between NorthC Datacenters in Oude Meer and maincubes in Schiphol Rijk.

For customers, the immediate change is straightforward: more room for dedicated servers [...]

Nokia’s AI Networking Growth Meets Heavy Restructuring Costs - 📅 - Nokia's second-quarter results suggest the company is finding a second growth engine in AI and cloud networking, even as restructuring costs obscure the headline profit picture. Revenue rose, infrastructure margins improved and orders accelerated, but the quarter also exposed a familiar tension - operational progress on one side, expensive portfolio cleanup and execution risk on the other.

For years, Nokia has been read mainly through the spending habits of telecom operators. That remains unavoidable. Mobile Infrastructure still generated the larger share of quarterly sales, and carrier investment cycles are hardly predictable. Yet the more consequential numbers now sit elsewhere. Network [...]
