📅 - Selector has raised $32 million in a new funding round aimed at accelerating its AI-driven observability platform, as enterprises grapple with increasingly complex infrastructure and mounting downtime risks. The round, announced this week, was led by AVP, with participation from Ansa Capital, Two Bear Capital, Sinewave Ventures, Singtel Innov8 and existing investors.
The investment doubles Selector's valuation to $375 million and will be directed toward AI innovation, product development, global expansion and customer success initiatives.
The capital raise comes amid heightened demand for real-time infrastructure visibility across hybrid cloud, on-premise and distributed network [...][... Check source for end of article ...]
📅 - Aliro Secures $15M to Advance Physics-Based Security - Aliro has secured $15 million in an oversubscribed funding round aimed at accelerating what the company describes as a foundational shift in cybersecurity: replacing encryption models based on mathematical complexity with security rooted in the laws of physics.
The round, announced this week, was led by Gutbrain Ventures and included participation from existing backers such as Cisco Investments, alongside new investors Argon Ventures and Wonderstone Ventures, the corporate venture arm of Japan-based Murata.
The Boston-based company is positioning its platform at a moment when enterprises and governments are reassessing the durability of traditional cryptographic systems. For decades, [...]
📅 - Digital Infrastructure Under Siege: DDoS Defense Guide - Uninterrupted access to applications and online services has become foundational to revenue, operations, and customer trust. From financial transactions and streaming platforms to AI-driven analytics and SaaS ecosystems, business continuity now depends on resilient network infrastructure. That dependency, however, has also made digital services a prime target for Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks.
DDoS incidents are no longer isolated disruptions affecting fringe websites. They have evolved into strategic weapons capable of halting global platforms, overwhelming cloud-native architectures, and causing cascading outages across supply chains. For CIOs, CISOs, and infrastructure [...]
📅 - $700M UAE-Iraq Cable Targets AI Connectivity Boom - A $700 million cross-border cable project backed by Iraqi and Emirati investors is taking shape as Gulf states intensify their push to position themselves at the center of global AI and digital infrastructure flows. Confirmed by consortium partners in comments to Reuters, the initiative - known as WorldLink - aims to connect the United Arab Emirates to Turkey via Iraq through a combination of subsea and terrestrial fiber routes.
The timing underscores a broader regional race to attract hyperscale data center investment and AI-driven connectivity demand. Just days earlier, Saudi Arabia unveiled a separate fiber initiative in Syria valued at nearly $1 billion. Together, the announcements [...]
📅 - Daytona Secures $24M Series A to Power Computers for AI Agents - New York-based infrastructure startup Daytona has secured $24 million in Series A funding to expand a platform designed to provide AI agents with on-demand access to fully functional, programmable computing environments. The investment reflects growing enterprise interest in agentic AI - autonomous software systems capable of executing complex tasks without continuous human oversight.
Daytona is positioning its technology as a new infrastructure layer built specifically for these emerging workloads, arguing that traditional cloud architectures were designed primarily for predictable, stateless production environments rather than the experimental and iterative nature of AI agents.
The [...]
📅 - Cloud Cost Management in 2026: Shift to Intelligent Cloud Economics - Cloud spending has shifted from a back-office IT metric to a strategic performance lever shaping enterprise competitiveness. As organizations head deeper into 2026, the conversation is no longer centered on how much is being spent in public cloud environments, but how effectively that cloud spend translates into performance, resilience, innovation and sustainability.
What began as a migration story - moving workloads from on-premises infrastructure into hyperscale platforms - has evolved into a sophisticated exercise in governance, financial modeling and automation. Enterprises, startups and managed service providers (MSPs) are operating in multi-cloud and hybrid environments spanning [...]
📅 - Scaleway Launches European Quantum Cloud with AQT - Alpine Quantum Technologies (AQT) from Austria and French cloud provider Scaleway have launched a new European quantum cloud offering designed to expand access to quantum computing while reinforcing the region's digital sovereignty ambitions. The partnership integrates AQT's trapped-ion quantum computer into Scaleway's sovereign cloud platform.
It would enable enterprises, researchers and public sector organizations across Europe to access quantum processing units (QPUs) via a cloud-based model.
The initiative centers on the availability of AQT's IBEX Q1 quantum computer through Scaleway's Quantum as a Service (QaaS) environment. The system will be accessible without reservation during [...]
