U.K. Enterprises Rethink Multicloud in the Age of AI - 📅 - U.K. enterprises are entering a new phase of cloud transformation as multicloud strategies are reshaped by artificial intelligence, rising regulatory demands, and increased scrutiny of technology spending. According to a newly published study by Information Services Group (ISG), organizations across the country are increasingly adopting AI-native multicloud environments designed to balance innovation with governance, compliance, and financial control.
The 2025 ISG Provider Lens Multi Public Cloud Services report for the U.K. highlights a shift away from traditional cloud adoption models toward architectures purpose-built for generative AI workloads and jurisdictional accountability. [...]

The company's newly announced IBM Sovereign Core aims to provide organizations with a way to build, deploy, and manage AI-ready environments while retaining full operational control within defined jurisdictions.
The announcement comes amid growing concern that existing cloud and AI platforms often blur the lines of accountability around who controls infrastructure, who can access sensitive data, [...]
The AWS European Sovereign Cloud, now generally available, represents a structurally separate cloud environment designed to operate entirely within the European Union, under European governance, and with technical and legal safeguards intended to satisfy some of the strictest regulatory requirements in the region.
First unveiled in 2023, the initiative has been closely watched by policymakers, [...]
The new datacenter development in Germany underlines the growing strategic importance of European data center capacity as demand accelerates for cloud computing and artificial intelligence workloads.
The project would center on a 27-hectare site located in an industrial park in North Rhine-Westphalia, a region that has emerged as a key hub for digital and industrial infrastructure due to its central location, strong [...]
U.S. Imposes 25% Tariff on NVIDIA and AMD AI Chips Over Security - 📅 - The White House has announced a new round of tariffs targeting advanced artificial intelligence hardware, imposing a 25% levy on high-performance AI processors from NVIDIA and AMD, a move framed explicitly around national security and technological sovereignty.
The measure, signed by President Donald Trump, applies to select semiconductors that meet defined performance thresholds, including NVIDIA's H200 AI processor and AMD's MI325X, as well as systems that incorporate those chips when imported into the United States.
The decision follows a nine-month investigation conducted under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, a provision that allows trade restrictions when imports are [...]

Want a lower carbon footprint? Choose M247 Global cloud services - 📅 - What is the carbon footprint of your company's servers? What is the carbon footprint of your company's servers? And how easy is it, really, to find out? Few companies have clear data on the environmental impact of their IT infrastructure, yet more and more organizations are asking these questions as cloud sustainability becomes a strategic priority.
Calculating the exact carbon footprint can be complex, but at a high level there are a few key aspects to consider when estimating the impact of servers: where the servers are hosted (on-premises or in the cloud) and what type of energy is used—green energy (from renewable sources) or energy generated by burning fossil fuels.
