The case for governed, ephemeral developer environments in the age of AI

Sam Weston — Sun, 26 Oct 2025 19:52:27 +0000

The rise of artificial intelligence coding tools, coupled with increasing pressure to accelerate application delivery, is forcing enterprises to rethink their developer environments. Traditional models built on local machines, static virtual machines and siloed toolchains are proving too slow, too inconsistent and too expensive for the demands of modern software development, according to theCUBE Research’s […]

AI factories: Data centers of the future

David Vellante, David Floyer, Bob Laliberte, Scott Hebner and Paul Nashawaty — Sat, 25 Oct 2025 19:49:07 +0000

The data center as we know it is being reimagined as an “AI factory” – a power- and data-optimized plant that turns energy and information into intelligence at industrial scale. The tech stack is flipping from general purpose central processing unit-centric systems to graphics processing unit-centric accelerated compute, optimized for parallel operations and purpose built […]

AI policy without proof is just politics

Ion Stoica — Fri, 24 Oct 2025 19:23:15 +0000

The White House’s recent executive orders on artificial intelligence and the launch of America’s AI Action Plan have made one thing clear: The United States intends to lead the world in AI. To be sure, the policy direction is ambitious: Accelerate innovation, strengthen infrastructure and ensure fairness and safety. But as important as these goals are, rules […]

Metadata is the missing map for enterprise AI

Sean Falconer — Fri, 24 Oct 2025 19:23:11 +0000

Large language models seem like magic. These artificial intelligence models write poetry, draft legal arguments and debug code with a fluency that suggests true understanding. But there is no magic, only patterns. An LLM learns language the same way a cryptographer cracks a code: by analyzing a massive volume of text and inferring the rules […]

How to streamline data delivery using five essential DataOps practices

Michael Simone — Mon, 20 Oct 2025 12:00:49 +0000

As organizations continue their digital transformation, the demand for timely, consumption-ready data has never been higher. Yet simply adopting data operations tools is not enough to improve data delivery. Accelerating velocity and improving efficiency in data operations requires more than tool implementation. It demands a cohesive strategy built on platform engineering, proven practices, the right […]

Salesforce’s next era: The agentic enterprise

David Vellante, George Gilbert, Paul Nashawaty and Scott Hebner — Sat, 18 Oct 2025 17:40:40 +0000

Salesforce Inc. is moving from the hype phase of generative AI into doing the harder engineering work to create the agentic enterprise. The Dreamforce 2025 conference this week showed us that the company that created the original software-as-a-service model now wants to lead what we call service as software. In our view, this represents a profound revolution, […]

The zero-loss enterprise: Data resilience as an AI service layer

Mon, 13 Oct 2025 03:12:45 +0000

The shift to service as software will bring learning curve advantages, software-like marginal economics, and winner-take-most dynamics to all companies across every industry, not just tech vendors. We believe those firms that can more quickly jump on the artificial intelligence experience curve will see substantially increased benefits relative to their competitors. However, our research suggests […]

Why your agentic AI strategy is backwards (and how to fix it)

Alan Trefler — Fri, 03 Oct 2025 15:02:32 +0000

These days, it’s hard to keep up with the whiplash-inducing hot takes on generative artificial intelligence. One minute, it’s the savior of enterprise productivity; the next, we’re beaten down by fearmongers and their tales of AI doom and gloom. But if we step back and look beyond the headlines, perhaps we’ll realize that both sides […]

Digital twins give cyber defenders a predictive edge

Isla Sibanda — Sat, 13 Sep 2025 17:09:41 +0000

The front line of cybersecurity has always been uneven. Attackers innovate with speed, testing new exploits daily, while defenders struggle to keep up with outdated playbooks. What enterprises lack isn’t more tools — it’s foresight. Digital twins, virtual replicas that learn and evolve in real time, are giving security teams a way to see threats […]

How the Sun Microsystems acquisition made Oracle the cloud company it is today

Tony Baer — Thu, 11 Sep 2025 15:23:36 +0000

In April 2009, Oracle Corp. made what at the time looked like a bad deal. Or at least that was the conventional wisdom. It announced that it was buying Sun Microsystems Inc. for $7.4 billion, or $5.6 billion net of Sun’s cash and debt. TL/DR, the judgment of the community on the decision by Oracle […]

The AGI debate is misguided. The bigger potential is Enterprise General Intelligence

Prem Natarajan — Fri, 15 Aug 2025 16:16:06 +0000

Silicon Valley’s debates over the viability of human-like artificial general intelligence overlook the likelihood that true superintelligence won’t emerge in our phones but in enterprise systems. The race for AGI is heading in the wrong direction. Today’s foundation models, impressive as they are, remain fundamentally reactive. They are sophisticated autocomplete systems that respond to prompts […]

Last November, we argued that JPMorgan Chase & Co. Chief Executive Jamie Dimon is sitting on a treasure trove of unique data that will never find its way into proprietary large language models via the internet. And as such, he was OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s biggest competitor because his data is more valuable than the democratized insights […]
