The Copilot app cannot be removed arbitrarily. Three cumulative conditions apply: Microsoft 365 Copilot must also be installed on the device, the Copilot app must not have been installed by the user themselves, and the app must not have been launched in the past 28 days.

Exchanges are a place where you can submit an order to buy something, letting everyone know about the price you want and notifying you when your order gets filled. They serve as financial infrastructure, providing up-to-date prices and facilitating trades.

"These are mega-rich people who are not here to do charitable things. They don't love Joliet. I'm here because I love Joliet, and I don't want to see my utilities go up."

A Common Vulnerability Exposure (CVE) that cannot reach the privilege plane is operationally ineffective - even at a CVSS Score of 10. This should be a core philosophy that is embedded into the fabric of software engineering.

Blackbox Hosting has consolidated storage from two full racks down to just 8U of rack space following migration to Everpure FlashArray hardware, achieving a 10:1 data reduction ratio and an 85% reduction in power utilization.

The attack is impacting our application, with users experiencing intermittent interruptions in service for their feeds, notifications, threads and search.

I was always a tinkerer, I guess. I grew up in the age where computers were not ubiquitous or common. An experience as a kid was instrumental in how my career happened.

When civilian banks, logistics platforms, and payment processors share physical data center infrastructure with military AI systems, those facilities become legitimate military targets under international humanitarian law - and the civilian services housed inside lose their legal protection.

What if I told you that everything you know and everything you do to ensure quality backups is no longer viable? In fact, what if I told you that in an era of generative AI, when it comes to backups, we're all pretty much screwed?

Neocloud providers, which include the likes of Nscale, CoreWeave and Carbon3.ai, are having a somewhat disruptive impact on the market by making huge commitments to build out hyperscale datacentres in support of the UK government's AI growth agenda. These providers are also taking up capacity in colocation datacentres that some of the hyperscale cloud giants previously committed to renting space in, before pulling out.

Uber's engineering team has transformed its data replication platform to move petabytes of data daily across hybrid cloud and on-premise data lakes, addressing scaling challenges caused by rapidly growing workloads. Built on Hadoop's open-source Distcp framework, the platform now handles over one petabyte of daily replication and hundreds of thousands of jobs with improved speed, reliability, and observability.

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."

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?

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.
