In its reply to the General Court, CISPE argued in a statement that Broadcom's aim to increase EBITDA by 60 to 80 percent in three years in a market growing 5-8 percent annually could only be achieved through "aggressive monetization of VMware's locked-in customer base through steep price rises and forced bundling." It thereby created "a powerful financial incentive to extract cash rapidly from VMware's installed base," CISPE said.

Amazon's $35bn investment will build on the $40bn already invested in India - establishing the company as "the largest foreign investor" in India, the company said in a statement. A key component of it will go into local cloud and AI infrastructure. Microsoft's fresh commitment follows a $3bn investment announced by the company earlier this year.

Broadcom divided it across VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), , and Application Networking and Security (ANS) divisions. Broadcom president and CEO Hock Tan presides over division heads Krish Prasad (VCF), Purnima Padmanabhan (Tanzu), and Umesh Mahajan (ANS). Senior vice president for global commercial sales and partners Brian Moats oversees roughly remaining VMware partners since the r Registered tier was jettisoned. Pre-acquisition, VMware turned over $13bn.

Modern software companies no longer run on a single cloud; they're spread across dozens of specialized providers, from AI platforms to data warehouses to edge networks. This fragmentation creates a problem: today's developers grew up building apps in the cloud, but most lack the network engineering skills needed to securely connect all these different services together. The capabilities that tech giants spent years building - private network connections, global infrastructure, and sophisticated traffic routing - remain out of reach for smaller teams.

Amazon Web Services' big annual event, re:Invent 2025, is getting into full swing in Las Vegas this week. Last year's event was largely focused on their AI efforts, including new foundation models, services tackling AI hallucinations, and new security measures. And this year is likely to follow suit, based on what Amazon has announced so far and the lineup of speakers and programming that you can explore in more detail below.

The platform tackles problems familiar to many platform engineering teams: sprawling cloud estates, drift between code and live environments, and fragile toolchains. According to Pavlo Baron, co-founder and CEO of Platform Engineering Labs, the tool emerged from direct experience with these challenges: We built formae out of our own pain. It is the first platform that starts from reality, not from an idealised plan. It accepts even the messiest truth of any cloud environment and provides a safe, reliable way to evolve it.

Last week, the privacy-focused messaging service Signal was temporarily shut down when Amazon Web Services (AWS) suffered a major outage. This led to criticism of Signal's use of such a dominant provider as AWS.

The UAE is undergoing a shift in its digital infrastructure landscape, with a wave of data centre and cloud investments reshaping the nation into a regional hub for artificial intelligence (AI) and digital transformation. This momentum is not only redefining the UAE's technological capabilities but also reinforcing its strategic vision of becoming a global nexus for digital innovation and data sovereignty.

Since the bulk of the company's revenue comes from advertising fees tied to search, any erosion in Google's market share seemingly poses an existential threat to Alphabet's financial engine. On the surface, this bearish narrative is compelling. But the reality is far more nuanced. Alphabet's financial resilience, strategic partnerships, and product evolution suggests that the company is not only prepared to defend its turf but may also emerge stronger in the face of rising competition.
