"For healthcare, government, and contact center environments, reducing risk at the endpoint is essential. By aligning IGEL's immutable endpoint OS and Adaptive Secure Desktop™ with Windows 365 and Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop, these reference architectures give organizations clear guidance for delivering secured and resilient digital workspaces."
As businesses contend with ever-increasing data volumes and performance-intensive applications such as AI model training, AI inferencing and high-performance computing, they need infrastructure that delivers speed, scalability and efficiency without added complexity.
[EHS] is actually a profit centre in the company," he says. "I know people tend to think it isn't. Compared to some other hats that I've worn, sustainability is usually not a cost centre.
The new version combines lower costs with improved cybersecurity and offers up to 2 petabytes of storage in a 2U rack space. Companies are struggling with explosive data growth, increasing cyber threats, and limited budgets. Dell Technologies is responding to this with PowerStore 4.3, a platform that addresses storage challenges without compromising performance or security. The latest version brings innovations that double storage density and reduce energy costs.
A future-proof IT infrastructure is often positioned as a universal solution that can withstand any change. However, such a solution does not exist. Nevertheless, future-proofing is an important concept for IT leaders navigating continuous technological developments and security risks, all while ensuring that daily business operations continue. The challenge is finding a balance between reactive problem solving and proactive planning, because overlooking a change can cost your organization. So, how do you successfully prepare for the future without that one-size-fits-all solution?
This new reality is forcing organizations to undertake careful assessments before making platform decisions for AI. The days when IT leaders could simply sign off on wholesale cloud migrations, confident it was always the most strategic choice, are over. In the age of AI, the optimal approach is usually hybrid. Having openly championed this hybrid path even when it was unpopular, I welcome the growing acceptance of these ideas among decision-makers and industry analysts.
A North American manufacturer spent most of 2024 and early 2025 doing what many innovative enterprises did: aggressively standardizing on the public cloud by using data lakes, analytics, CI/CD, and even a good chunk of ERP integration. The board liked the narrative because it sounded like simplification, and simplification sounded like savings. Then generative AI arrived, not as a lab toy but as a mandate. "Put copilots everywhere," leadership said. "Start with maintenance, then procurement, then the call center, then engineering change orders."
Intel is making a new push into GPUs, this time with a focus on data center workloads, as the chipmaker looks to reestablish itself in a market increasingly shaped by AI-driven demand and dominated by Nvidia. CEO Lip-Bu Tan said that after hiring a senior GPU architect, the company is working directly with customers to define requirements, signaling a more demand-driven approach as enterprises and cloud providers weigh their options for accelerated computing, according to a Reuters report.
The main advantage of going the Multi-Cloud way is that organizations can "put their eggs in different baskets" and be more versatile in their approach to how they do things. For example, they can mix it up and opt for a cloud-based Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) solution when it comes to the database, while going the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) route for their application endeavors.
