Crusoe Builds 900MW AI Data Center Campus In Texas for Microsoft
📅 - Crusoe said this week it will build a new 900MW AI data center campus in Abilene, Texas, expanding its partnership with Microsoft, as demand for large-scale compute accelerates, pushing infrastructure providers to secure power, land and speed in a race to support next-generation AI workloads across the United States and globally.
The project adds two new buildings and an on-site power plant next to Crusoe's existing Abilene facilities, bringing total planned capacity at the site to roughly 2.1 gigawatts. Construction is already underway, with the first new building expected to go live by mid-2027. The pace is notable, even in a market that has grown used to big numbers.

📅 - DDoS Attacks Surge 150 Percent as Scale And speed Spike - A new report released this week by Gcore finds distributed denial-of-service attacks surged 150 percent year-on-year in late 2025, with volumes, speed and geographic spread all increasing sharply, as enterprises across technology, finance and gaming sectors face escalating disruption risks from cheaper tools, automated botnets and shifting attack infrastructure worldwide.
The raw numbers are hard to ignore. Gcore recorded roughly 1.3 million attacks in the final quarter of 2025, up from just over half a million a year earlier. Peak volumes reached 12 terabits per second, a sixfold jump that signals something more than incremental growth. The scale is changing, and quickly.

📅 - Digital Realty Targets Milan Data Center Expansion as Rival Builds - Digital Realty has announced plans to expand into Milan with new land acquisitions for a future data center campus, the company said this week, as demand for AI infrastructure grows and competition intensifies following recent expansion moves in the Italian market by rivals including CyrusOne.
The company has secured two plots in Abbiategrasso, southwest of Milan, located about one kilometer apart. The site sits along a subsea traffic corridor linking Milan to Genoa and Savona, with access to dense terrestrial fiber routes across Northern Italy.
Initial deployment will begin with an 8-megawatt facility, expected to be ready by 2028. Over time, Digital Realty plans to scale the campus [...]
📅 - AI Drives Workplace Convergence NTT Data Flags Execution Gap - Artificial intelligence is moving from pilot projects to core operations, according to a new report released this week by NTT DATA, based on research with Everest Group across 330 enterprises globally, which finds most companies planning to unify workplace, network and field services by 2030 but failing to act, exposing a widening execution gap right now today.
The numbers are not subtle. More than 80% of enterprises expect to collapse workplace systems, connectivity and field operations into a single operating model within five years, according to the research report by NTT Data. At the same time, most are still running fragmented environments stitched together over a decade of cloud [...]
📅 - IBM Quantum Achieves Accurate Simulation of Real Materials - IBM researchers, working with U.S. national laboratories and universities, said this week their quantum processor has reproduced experimental data from magnetic materials with surprising accuracy, marking a shift from theoretical promise to measurable validation, as the industry searches for practical use cases for quantum computing beyond demonstrations and controlled lab conditions.
The work, detailed in a pre-print, compares quantum simulations against neutron scattering experiments - a long-standing method for probing the behaviour of magnetic systems. The results align closely with data generated at facilities such as Oak Ridge National Laboratory, suggesting that current quantum [...]
📅 - Rocketlane Secures $60M To Expand AI Services Platform - Rocketlane said this week it has raised $60 million in Series C funding led by Insight Partners, as demand grows for tools that help enterprises turn AI investments into operational results, rather than pilots, with professional services teams increasingly tasked with making those systems actually work in production environments globally.
The round brings Rocketlane's total funding to $105 million and follows a year in which the company claims to have more than doubled revenue while expanding into enterprise accounts. New offices in London, New York and San Francisco signal a push beyond its earlier footprint, though scaling services software globally comes with familiar [...]
📅 - $580B AI Investment Surge Reshapes Data Center Markets - A new 2026 data center marketplace report by Colliers shows AI demand is rapidly reshaping global infrastructure, with record investment, rising costs, and tightening power supply forcing operators, investors, and hyperscalers to rethink how and where facilities are built, as competition for energy and execution capacity intensifies across North America, Europe, and emerging markets worldwide.
The headline numbers are large, but the underlying shift is more structural than cyclical. Global data center investment exceeded $580 billion in 2025, up sharply year over year, while hyperscalers issued more than $120 billion in debt to finance AI-driven expansion. That capital is not chasing [...]
