HOSTAFRICA launches Africa’s first hosting MCP server: manage your VPS from Claude and ChatGPT - 📅 - Your AI assistant can now start servers, create backups, and configure firewalls — no control panel requiredModel Context Protocol, or MCP, is the emerging standard that lets AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT talk directly to external services. Instead of switching between browser tabs, documentation, and support tickets, developers can manage infrastructure through natural language inside the AI tools they already use.
HOSTAFRICA is the first hosting provider on the African continent to suppo
Intel's Server Revival Faces AMD's Wider Cloud Platform Play - 📅 - Intel reported a sharp second-quarter recovery as stronger server demand and improved factory execution lifted revenue, but cloud operators and data center buyers face a more complicated choice. Intel is rebuilding around Xeon, networking, packaging, and foundry capacity just as AMD turns CPUs, accelerators, software, and rack-scale systems into a more integrated infrastructure proposition for global customers.
For hosting providers, colocation operators, and cloud platforms, Intel's 25 percent revenue increase is less important than the source of that improvement. Data Center and AI revenue rose 59 percent, while management said better yields and shorter factory cycle times supported [...]

Vultr Takes AMD Helios Rackscale and MI455X GPUs Into Cloud - 📅 - Cloud infrastructure provider Vultr will begin offering AMD's upcoming Instinct MI455X accelerators and Helios rackscale architecture later this year, joining an increasingly competitive effort to provide alternatives to Nvidia-dominated AI infrastructure as enterprise buyers seek larger memory footprints, denser compute deployments, and more predictable economics for production-scale artificial intelligence workloads across global cloud platforms.The announcement lands as the AI infrastructure conversation shifts away from simply acquiring GPUs. Buyers are now evaluating complete systems - networking, cooling, software compatibility, memory capacity, and deployment models increasingly [...]
Core42 and e& UAE Launch Sovereign AI Infrastructure Service - 📅 - e& UAE and Core42 have unveiled a joint sovereign AI computing service aimed at giving enterprises access to domestic GPU infrastructure without building their own clusters, reflecting intensifying competition over where sensitive AI workloads run, who controls them, and which providers capture long-term enterprise spending as governments tighten digital sovereignty expectations across regulated sectors worldwide today increasingly.
The immediate product is straightforward enough: access to GPU capacity hosted inside the UAE, paired with telecommunications infrastructure, implementation services, and enterprise support under a single commercial arrangement. The larger story sits [...]

Cato Networks, CrowdStrike Unify Network and Endpoint Security - 📅 - Cato Networks and CrowdStrike have linked their platforms to combine network and endpoint security telemetry, expanding visibility across enterprise environments as security teams struggle with fragmented tooling, AI-assisted attacks and mounting operational workloads. The integration also reflects growing demand for security products capable of exchanging contextual data rather than operating as isolated detection systems across organizations globally.
Security vendors have spent years arguing that better visibility leads to better security. Enterprises have spent those same years stitching together dashboards, agents, SIEM platforms, and network appliances that rarely agree on what [...]

Fujitsu Sells Australian Data Center Unit to Next Capital - 📅 - Fujitsu has agreed to sell its Australian data center business to private equity firm Next Capital, marking another step in the company's shift away from infrastructure ownership toward higher-margin technology services. The transaction remains subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions, while Fujitsu says operations and customer services will continue unchanged until completion later this year.
Owning data centers has become a more complicated business than it once was. Rising power costs, AI-driven infrastructure investment, tightening capital requirements, and growing customer expectations around sovereign cloud capabilities have altered the economics. For global [...]

Cisco and Tech Mahindra Unite on Managed SSE for Enterprises - 📅 - Tech Mahindra and Cisco have agreed to jointly deliver managed Security Service Edge offerings aimed at enterprises confronting increasingly fragmented security environments, combining Cisco's Secure Access platform with Tech Mahindra's integration and managed services capabilities as organizations reassess zero trust architectures, hybrid workforce protection, and governance around emerging generative AI deployments and workloads.
Enterprise security spending has become less about adding another security appliance and more about reducing operational friction. That creates an opportunity for systems integrators with large managed services businesses, especially as security teams struggle [...]

HPE, ASUS, MSI, Supermicro and MiTAC Launch AMD EPYC Servers - 📅 - AMD's latest EPYC processor launch has quickly become less about CPUs and more about how server manufacturers believe enterprise AI infrastructure will evolve over the next several years. At AMD Advancing AI 2026 in San Francisco, hardware vendors unveiled remarkably similar strategies: denser compute, faster interconnects, liquid cooling, and architectures intended to keep pace with increasingly demanding AI, cloud, and high-performance computing workloads.
For enterprise infrastructure buyers, the announcements highlight a market entering another transition. GPUs continue to dominate AI headlines, yet every accelerator cluster still depends on CPUs to orchestrate storage, networking, [...]

Dutch Data Center Heat Project Targets Grid Constraints - 📅 - A Dutch municipality, greenhouse growers and a data center operator have agreed to develop a heat network using recovered server energy. The project aims to replace natural gas, reduce pressure on a constrained electricity grid and test whether digital infrastructure can serve regional industry. Similar schemes are attracting attention as power shortages complicate data center expansion worldwide.The agreement brings together a municipal authority, an agricultural energy cooperative, data center developer Switch Datacenters and regional energy partners. A planned facility will capture heat generated by servers and supply it to nearby commercial greenhouses through a district network. [...]
Zayo Finds AI Workloads Driving Higher Fiber Capacity Demand - 📅 - Enterprise spending on high-capacity network infrastructure is accelerating as companies adapt their systems for artificial intelligence, highlighting a growing shift in technology budgets beyond chips and data centers. Analysis released by digital infrastructure provider Zayo, covering nearly 6,000 customers during 2025, points to sustained demand for dark fiber and wavelength services as AI deployments become increasingly distributed.Zayo's second annual Bandwidth Report arrives as companies are discovering that acquiring GPUs is only one part of deploying AI at scale. Moving data between training sites, cloud environments, inference systems and users can become expensive and [...]
