Zayo and Equinix Launch AI Infrastructure Blueprint to Scale Connectivity
📅 - Global communications infrastructure provider Zayo, in partnership with Equinix, has launched a joint initiative designed to bring clarity to the complex question of how next-generation digital infrastructure should be structured to support artificial intelligence workloads at scale.
The initiative, known as the AI Infrastructure Blueprint, lays out a framework for aligning high-capacity fiber networks, interconnection hubs, and AI-specific data centers dedicated to both training and inference.
The launch comes at a time when AI development is accelerating rapidly, while enterprises and neocloud providers often face a lack of guidance on how best to design the underlying infrastructure. [...][... Check source for end of article ...]
Datavault AI is expanding its edge computing footprint in the northeastern United States through a deeper collaboration with IBM and infrastructure provider Available Infrastructure, aiming to bring enterprise-grade artificial intelligence performance closer to where data is created.
The initiative will deploy Datavault AI's technology across New York and Philadelphia using the SanQtum AI platform, a fleet of synchronized micro edge data centers designed to deliver secure, ultra-low-latency AI services outside of traditional centralized cloud [...]
📅 - Revolutionizing Business Networks with Software-Defined Strategy - What began as an academic concept to decouple network control from hardware has become a foundational strategy for enterprises grappling with scale, security, and speed. For CIOs and IT leaders navigating hybrid workforces, cloud sprawl, and relentless cyber risk, software-defined networking (SDN) is no longer a future bet - it is an operational imperative reshaping how business networks are designed, secured, and managed.
At its core, SDN separates the control plane - the logic that decides where traffic should go - from the data plane that actually moves packets. This architectural shift allows networks to be programmed centrally, dynamically, and consistently.
The implications extend [...]
📅 - Equinix to Build €1.5B Data Center in Netherlands to Boost AI Capacity - Equinix is preparing to build one of the Netherlands' most significant new digital infrastructure projects with a €1.5 billion data center planned for the Flevokust Haven business park in Lelystad. The company expects the facility to support data workloads for roughly 100 organizations across government, healthcare, enterprise IT, and AI development.
An additional €5.5 billion in partner funding is tied to the broader project ecosystem, underscoring the scale of private-sector investment flowing into regional digital infrastructure.
A defining feature of the development is its power strategy. Despite requiring approximately 150 megawatts of electricity annually, Equinix says the new [...]
📅 - IBM to Acquire Confluent for $11B to Boost Real-Time AI Data Systems - IBM has moved to significantly deepen its position in the AI and data infrastructure market with an agreement to acquire Confluent, the streaming data specialist, for USD 11 billion. The deal, announced by both companies, positions real-time data streaming as a foundational layer for enterprise adoption of agentic and generative AI, underscoring how strategically critical data movement has become in modern hybrid cloud architectures.
With organizations adopting AI at unprecedented speed, the capacity to connect, process and govern data in real time is becoming more important than the size or compute power of the models themselves. Confluent, built on the widely adopted open-source [...]
📅 - Data Center Firm Equinix Reserves Power from First Stellaria Reactor - Equinix is betting that the next wave of digital infrastructure will be powered not only by renewables and grid contracts, but by advanced nuclear. The global data center giant has signed a pre-order agreement with French start-up Stellaria for electricity from its first commercial molten salt reactor, a compact unit branded ‘Stellarium' that the company plans to deploy from 2035.
Under the arrangement, Equinix has reserved the first tranche of power capacity from a future Stellarium reactor, marking the inaugural capacity commitment Stellaria has secured. The deal is framed as a long-term move to secure firm, low-carbon power for Equinix's growing fleet of AI-ready, high-density data [...]
