📅 - Cloudflare Outage Traced to Internal Error, Not Cyberattack - Cloudflare is detailing the root cause of a major global outage that disrupted traffic across a large portion of the Internet on November 18, 2025, marking the company's most severe service incident since 2019. While early internal investigations briefly raised the possibility of a hyper-scale DDoS attack, Cloudflare cofounder and CEO Matthew Prince confirmed that the outage was entirely self-inflicted.
The Cloudflare disruption, which began at 11:20 UTC, produced spikes of HTTP 5xx errors for users attempting to access websites, APIs, security services, and applications running through Cloudflare's network - an infrastructure layer relied upon by millions of organizations [...]
📅 - IONOS Deploys Distributed High-Performance Network with VyOS - VyOS Networks is expanding its footprint in the enterprise cloud ecosystem as IONOS, one of Europe's largest hosting and infrastructure providers, has completed a broad deployment of the VyOS open-source network operating system across its Bare Metal platform.
The rollout marks a significant architectural shift for IONOS, replacing centralized, hardware-dependent networking models with a distributed, software-defined approach designed to support massive scale, improve resilience, and reduce operational costs.
The deployment reflects a growing trend among global cloud providers: leveraging open-source network operating systems to accelerate infrastructure modernization while avoiding [...]
📅 - Xen 4.21 Expands Performance, Security for Cloud and Automotive - The Xen Project has released Xen 4.21, marking one of the hypervisor's most substantial modernization steps in recent years as it expands its role across cloud, data center, automotive, and emerging embedded workloads. The new release updates core toolchains, improves x86 performance efficiency, strengthens security on Arm-based platforms, and introduces early RISC-V enablement for future architectures.
Hosted by the Linux Foundation, the open-source virtualization platform continues to evolve beyond its roots as a cloud hypervisor, aiming to serve as a unified foundation for compute environments ranging from hyperscale servers to safety-critical vehicle systems.
For cloud providers, [...]
📅 - AMD, Cisco, HUMAIN Launch Saudi Arabian AI Infrastructure Venture - AMD, Cisco and HUMAIN, a Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund–backed (PIF) AI infrastructure company, have unveiled plans to form a joint venture that aims to accelerate Saudi Arabia's emergence as a global hub for large-scale artificial intelligence computing.
The initiative, announced today, positions the three companies as founding investors in a new entity expected to begin operations in 2026, with the ambition to deploy up to 1 GW of AI infrastructure across the Kingdom by 2030.
The joint venture plans to integrate HUMAIN's modern data center footprint with AMD's high-performance computing technology and Cisco's critical networking infrastructure. AMD and Cisco will serve as [...]
📅 - NVIDIA CEO Rejects AI Bubble, Predicts Enduring Demand - NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang pushed back firmly against mounting speculation that the global surge in data center spending signals the emergence of an AI bubble, telling investors on the company's latest earnings call that the fundamentals driving demand are not only real but accelerating.
His comments come amid unprecedented investment in GPU-powered infrastructure, which has fueled NVIDIA's valuation to roughly $4.5 trillion and elevated its hardware to the center of virtually every major AI deployment worldwide.
Some market watchers have questioned whether hyperscalers, AI labs, and enterprises are overshooting long-term demand by building massive GPU clusters at breakneck speed.
