Dec, 2025 : Why Cloud Native Is Becoming a Mandatory Approach in 2026
📅 - As digital transformation accelerates, enterprises are increasingly shifting from traditional IT models to agile, scalable, and resilient infrastructures built in the cloud. The "cloud-native" approach—developing and running applications that fully exploit the advantages of cloud computing—has evolved from a technology trend into a business necessity. Organizations that embrace cloud-native architectures are redefining innovation speed, operational efficiency, and competitiveness.
The Need for a Cloud-Native Future
The global IT landscape is evolving rapidly. According to Gartner, over 95% of new digital workloads will be deployed on cloud-native platforms by 2027, compared to just 30% [...][... Check source for end of article ...]
📅 - Doing Business Globally: Why a Distributed Cloud Infrastructure Matters - Many companies aim to expand beyond their domestic market to open new growth opportunities and diversify their customer base. Manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and providers of digital services, marketplaces such as Zalando or Trendyol, trading platforms like eToro, and fintechs like Revolut are experiencing rapid expansion, operating in dozens of countries across multiple continents. For such companies, seizing these opportunities often requires more than just a business strategy: it also requires a geographically distributed IT infrastructure.
When a company enters a new market, it needs business applications for employees, web applications that can reach end users quickly, and [...]
📅 - QuantWare Unveils VIO-40K, a 10,000-Qubit Quantum Breakthrough - QuantWare has unveiled what it describes as the quantum hardware industry's most significant scaling breakthrough to date, announcing VIO-40K, a new generation of its VIO quantum processor architecture capable of supporting QPUs with up to 10,000 qubits.
The milestone represents a two-order-of-magnitude jump over today's largest commercially accessible processors, marking a potential inflection point in quantum hardware scaling after nearly a decade of incremental progress.
While major industry players such as Google, IBM, and several well-funded startups have advanced quantum processor designs, the physical size and wiring complexity of superconducting qubit systems have capped [...]
📅 - Pasqal Expands Quantum Access via Scaleway QaaS Platform - Pasqal, the French quantum computing firm specializing in neutral-atom architectures, has expanded cloud access to its quantum processing units through integration with Scaleway's QaaS platform. Announced at ai-PULSE 2025, the partnership enables European enterprises, researchers, and developers to access Pasqal's QPUs within a sovereign cloud environment as quantum workloads grow and regulatory demands intensify.
Scaleway's QaaS platform aggregates multiple European quantum technologies into a single cloud-accessible ecosystem. By joining this environment, Pasqal makes its hardware available alongside other quantum modalities, allowing users to experiment with different approaches [...]
📅 - Microsoft Commits $17.5B to Accelerate India’s AI and Cloud Expansion - Microsoft is preparing a record-setting $17.5 billion AI investment in India, marking its largest financial commitment in Asia as it accelerates efforts to expand the country's AI and cloud infrastructure. The announcement builds on the company's earlier pledge of $3 billion and lays out a four-year capital deployment plan running from 2026 through 2029.
For global enterprises watching India's rapid digital evolution, the move would signal a decisive shift toward positioning the country as one of the world's most strategically important AI hubs.
The company says the investment is designed to help India evolve from a model built on digital public infrastructure to what it calls AI public [...]
📅 - ABB Invests in OctaiPipe to Accelerate AI-Optimized Data Center Cooling - ABB has made a strategic investment in UK-based OctaiPipe, an AI specialist focused on optimizing data center cooling. The move underscores ABB's push into energy-efficient digital infrastructure as global data center power use climbs to record levels and operators face mounting pressure to cut emissions, manage rising costs, and comply with stricter regulations ahead.
The investment, made through ABB Motion Ventures, gives ABB a minority stake in OctaiPipe; financial terms were not disclosed and the agreement remains subject to customary closing conditions.
The collaboration arrives as global data center capacity is projected to grow between 19 and 22 percent annually through 2030, [...]
📅 - AMS-IX Exits U.S., Refocuses Global Interconnection Strategy - AMS-IX, one of the world's largest Internet Exchange operators, will discontinue its U.S. presence and close its Points-of-Presence in Chicago and the Bay Area by March 5, 2026. The decision marks a significant pivot in the organization's global connectivity strategy, signaling a move away from the highly competitive and mature U.S. interconnection market toward regions where the company believes it can deliver greater impact.
The internet exchange operator entered the U.S. in 2013 with the goal of introducing the European-style open and neutral interconnection model to American carriers, cloud providers and content networks. More than a decade later, AMS-IX says its contribution to the [...]
