Enterprise AI infrastructure has shifted from optimizing training models to serving them, and that changes the economics. Training is a capital project with an endpoint. Inference is a production workload that runs as long as the service is live, with output measured in tokens. This is the tokenomics problem now facing AI operators: once the
The Dell Pro 5 16 is the large-screen entry in Dell’s commercial Pro laptop line, and the one that leads on value rather than portability. Our review unit pairs the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 470 (12 cores, 24 threads, 55 TOPS NPU) with AMD Radeon 890M integrated graphics, 64 GB of DDR5-5600 RAM,
Wasabi Technologies and Megaport Limited have entered a strategic partnership to add Wasabi cloud object storage to Megaport Storage. The integration combines Wasabi’s object storage platform with Megaport’s private global network, targeting AI data platforms, analytics environments, cyber resilience workflows, and other large-scale cloud storage use cases. The service is available through the Megaport platform
Chelsio Communications has introduced its seventh-generation AI Interconnect Platform, expanding its Ethernet offload portfolio with SmartNICs, storage controllers, and Data Processing Units. Built on the company’s Unified Wire architecture, the T7 platform targets AI training and inference clusters, disaggregated storage, cloud infrastructure, and high-performance networking environments.

WEKA has launched two connected products: NeuralMesh 6, its most significant software release to date, and WEKApod 3, a new generation of storage appliances designed and engineered by WEKA to run it. NeuralMesh 6 remains deployable on customer-selected hardware, while WEKApod provides the turnkey path, shipping with the software preinstalled. NeuralMesh 6 introduces native multi-tenancy,
AMD has expanded its strategic partnership with Microsoft to cover GPUs, CPUs, networking, and software across Azure infrastructure. The collaboration includes Microsoft’s planned deployment of AMD’s Helios Rackscale Solution for AI inference workloads supporting frontier models, Azure AI services, and customer applications. The deployment makes Microsoft the first hyperscaler to publicly commit to Helios at
NVIDIA has introduced Omniverse libraries, a set of software components designed to bring physical AI capabilities into existing 3D applications and prepare content for simulation. The libraries are intended to help developers, technical artists, and engineering teams build workflows that inspect scenes, validate assets, model physical behavior, and generate sensor data for robotics, factory automation,
The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) announced on July 16 that Broadcom has elevated its membership to Platinum. The move expands Broadcom’s participation in the CNCF ecosystem as enterprises operationalize AI, analytics, and other data-intensive workloads on Kubernetes-based platforms. The announcement follows Broadcom’s recent contribution of Velero to the CNCF Sandbox. Velero is a Kubernetes-native
Dell Technologies closed the first quarter of 2026 as the top external enterprise storage vendor worldwide, according to IDC’s Worldwide Quarterly Enterprise Storage Systems Tracker released in June, posting 31.2% market share on 40.8% year-over-year growth, nearly double the 22.7% pace of the overall segment. By IDC’s count, the rest of the top five vendors
Microsoft and 3M have announced a strategic partnership covering both data center optical connectivity and enterprise AI adoption. Under the July 15 agreement, Azure becomes the first announced hyperscale cloud provider to deploy 3M’s Expanded Beam Optical (EBO) technology across its data centers, while 3M adopts Microsoft’s AI and digital platforms across several of its
