Bridged Broadband Establishes Midwest Core Hub at 1102 Grand - 📅 - Netrality Data Centers has activated a new Midwest network aggregation hub for Bridged Broadband at its 1102 Grand interconnection facility in Kansas City, marking a significant step in expanding high-capacity connectivity between rural Missouri communities and major regional carrier and cloud ecosystems.The deployment positions the historic 1102 Grand building as the primary Midwest interconnection gateway for Bridged Broadband's newly launched fiber network.
The move comes as regional broadband providers seek scalable infrastructure capable of supporting rising enterprise, cloud, and AI-driven bandwidth demands beyond traditional metro markets. Bridged Broadband's Phase One rollout [...]
Data Center Firm ECL Unveils Fuel-Agnostic AI Power Platform - 📅 - ECL, a modular data center developer focused on alternative power architectures, has introduced FlexGrid, a new fuel-agnostic platform aimed at accelerating AI deployments in power-constrained markets. The system is designed to enable high-density GPU capacity for both large-scale training clusters and distributed inference workloads, particularly in edge and metro locations where traditional grid availability remains limited.
The launch comes as AI infrastructure demand shifts beyond centralized hyperscale training environments toward inference workloads that must operate closer to end users, enterprises, and industrial sites. According to ECL, FlexGrid allows operators to deploy [...]

Survey: Apache Iceberg Becomes Enterprise Core - 📅 - Apache Iceberg has moved from emerging open table format to enterprise cornerstone, according to a new independent survey of 252 senior data and IT leaders released in January 2026. The study, titled The State of Apache Iceberg in the Enterprise (2026), finds that organizations across North America and Europe are now running business-critical analytics and AI workloads at scale on Iceberg-managed data platforms.
Open-source table format Apache Iceberg was created for massive data lakes. With database-like reliability, performance, and governance, it allows enterprises to store enormous datasets in cloud object storage (such as Google Cloud Storage, Amazon S3, or Azure Blob). Putting it [...]

Hyperscaler Self-Build to Outpace Colocation in Europe - 📅 - With hyperscale cloud providers speeding up their transition to self-built facilities, the data center market in Europe entered 2026 at a critical juncture, causing supply to tighten throughout the continent and vacancy rates to drop to all-time lows. According to CBRE, a structural shift in the way digital infrastructure is delivered throughout Europe is anticipated this year as hyperscaler-owned and operated capacity is predicted to surpass the development of new colocation supply.
Europe's data center market entered 2026 at a pivotal moment, as hyperscale cloud providers accelerate their shift toward self-built facilities, tightening supply across the continent and driving vacancy [...]

RETN Launches New Baltic Backbone Route - 📅 - RETN has strengthened its Northern European network footprint with the launch of a new terrestrial backbone route between Tallinn, Estonia, and Cēsis, Latvia, a move that was stress-tested almost immediately following a fiber outage in late 2025. The global network service provider confirmed that the newly built route was activated during pre-service testing after a break disrupted the primary backbone line, forcing engineers to reroute live traffic in real time.According to the company, more than 40 DWDM backbone channels carrying traffic from multiple European regions were redirected to the Tallinn-Cēsis link within 60 minutes. In traditional Layer 1 environments, such restoration [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
