Trump Eyes Ban on Chinese Data Center Networking Components
📅 - The Trump administration is preparing restrictions on Chinese optical transceivers used in data centers, Reuters reported, extending Washington's technology controls beyond semiconductors into networking infrastructure. The proposal, still under discussion at the Federal Communications Commission, reflects concern that components moving data inside AI systems could create security, espionage, and supply chain risks for United States operators.
If adopted, the measure would target new imports of Chinese optical transceivers, the networking components that transfer data through fiber-optic connections between servers, storage systems, and switches inside modern data centers. Reuters, citing [...][... Check source for end of article ...]
📅 - QuiX Quantum Brings Rack-Mounted Photonics to Research Labs - QuiX Quantum has begun commercial shipments of Alquor 2.0, a rack-mountable photonic quantum processor designed to replace fragile optical table experiments with programmable hardware. The Dutch company is targeting universities and research institutes seeking reproducible quantum photonics research, offering systems with up to 32 optical modes and integrated control electronics available now for scientific deployments worldwide.
Quantum computing vendors typically compete by increasing qubit counts or demonstrating benchmark improvements. QuiX Quantum is taking a different route. It is trying to make photonic quantum research easier to operate, not necessarily more powerful overnight. [...]
📅 - Your.Online Acquires Estonia's Zone to Expand Hosting Footprint - Your.Online has acquired Estonia-based hosting and domain provider Zone, adding a technically self-sufficient regional operator to its expanding European portfolio. Zone will retain its brand, management, and operating model under co-founder and CEO Martti Varik, while gaining access to the Dutch group's capital, peer network, and broader commercial reach across Europe and the United States globally.
For customers, the immediate message is continuity. No forced migration, no abrupt rebranding, no declared platform consolidation. That lowers execution risk, at least initially. Zone runs infrastructure in Tallinn, Amsterdam, and Helsinki and provides domains, hosting, managed cloud, virtual [...]
📅 - Liqid Unveils CXL Memory Pooling Platform for AI and Scientific Discover - Liqid is supplying the pooled memory layer for Abaco, a Micron designed system being built for the U.S. Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The platform can expose more than 160 terabytes of coherent memory across multiple servers, targeting AI and scientific workloads constrained less by processors than by how quickly datasets can be reached efficiently.
The deployment gives Liqid a visible reference customer for a class of infrastructure that vendors have discussed for years but enterprises have adopted cautiously. Compute capacity has expanded rapidly. Memory capacity, bandwidth, and locality have not kept pace. Large graph models, scientific simulations, [...]
📅 - Netskope One DataSec Command Center Released to Unify Data Security - Netskope, a global cloud security vendor that sells exclusively through channel partners, is introducing a centralized data security control plane spanning AI services, cloud platforms, endpoints, email, networks, and on-premises environments. The company says fragmented tooling has become harder to manage as enterprise AI adoption accelerates and sensitive information moves across far more systems.
The announcement reflects a broader shift underway in enterprise security. Organizations spent years deploying specialized products for cloud access, data loss prevention, SaaS governance, endpoint protection, and data security posture management. Each solved a particular problem. [...]
