Vodafone’s latest pivot is no marketing tweak: it is an explicit attempt to recast a legacy, asset-heavy carrier as a software-first, developer-friendly platform spanning 5G, edge, IoT, cloud and programmable network APIs. The company is redeploying balance-sheet capital, selling passive...
Yogi Schulz’s Top‑10 reflections on information technology in 2025 crystallize a simple but profound idea: AI moved from a feature to an infrastructure layer that reshaped procurement, power planning, cybersecurity, and day‑to‑day operations across the energy industry.
Background / Overview
2025...
2025 closed as a year in which information technology stopped being an incremental operating expense and instead became a strategic, capital‑intensive layer that reshaped energy‑industry planning, hiring, procurement and risk management. The short, widely circulated Top‑10 list by Yogi Schulz...
The autumn and winter of 2025 were defined less by a single headline outage than by a pattern: a string of failures across the world’s largest cloud and edge providers that repeatedly knocked consumer apps, enterprise systems and critical services offline. Those incidents exposed a shared...
Cloudflare’s move to run LLM inference at the edge — powered by a Rust engine called Infire and integrated with its global Workers AI platform — is more than a technical curiosity: it is a deliberate attempt to rewire the cost economics of AI inference by shifting how and where GPUs, CPUs, and...
Enterprise IT leaders choosing an industrial automation and control platform in 2025 face a familiar paradox: the technology that can deliver the most dramatic efficiency, safety, and sustainability gains is also the one that increases their attack surface, operational complexity, and...
Cost control in shipping tech has quietly flipped from a defensive reflex into a deliberate strategic lever, and Lloyd’s Register’s recent public statements make that shift plain: capital is now being deployed to technologies that can be tied to measurable outcomes such as emissions, safety...
AAEON’s new BOXER-6648-ARS lands squarely in the industrial-edge sweet spot: a fanless, rugged box PC that pairs Intel’s Core Ultra (Series 2) processors with broad I/O, wide‑range DC power input and a design hardened for factory, vehicle and kiosk deployments — all while promising the kind of...
For a few hours on December 9, 2025, thousands of UK and European users found Microsoft Copilot suddenly unavailable — and the outage did more than expose a bug; it exposed a systemic fragility in how generative AI is operated, scaled, and trusted at enterprise scale.

Lockheed Martin and Microsoft have announced a joint effort to build Sanctum, a cloud‑backed, AI‑driven counter‑unmanned aerial system (C‑UAS) platform that combines Lockheed Martin’s defense engineering with Microsoft’s Azure cloud and AI toolchain to detect, classify and respond to hostile...
Red Hat OpenShift at the Edge has emerged as one of the most architecturally ambitious and commercially visible choices for enterprise edge computing, promising a single, secure Kubernetes stack that can scale from tightly constrained device-edge appliances to multi‑node near‑edge clusters while...
Microsoft and Lockheed Martin have announced a major collaboration to build Sanctum — a cloud-native, AI-driven counter‑Unmanned Aerial Systems (C‑UAS) ecosystem that pairs Lockheed Martin’s mission expertise with Microsoft Azure’s scale, telemetry services, and model lifecycle tooling to...
Community chatter this morning — “Is Microsoft Azure down?” — is understandable, but the weight of available telemetry and provider signals says: no, Azure is not globally down on December 11, 2025, although a string of high‑visibility incidents in recent weeks has left admins hypersensitive to...
Cloudflare’s edge network suffered yet another high‑visibility disruption this week, leaving major websites and cloud services intermittently unreachable and dragging a spate of dependent platforms — including conversational AI front ends and Microsoft Copilot users in Europe — into a cascade of...
Cloudflare’s network hiccup this month was short in clock time but brutally effective in perception: a defensive change rolled to protect against a disclosed React Server Components vulnerability caused a slice of Cloudflare’s edge to return HTTP 5xx errors, briefly knocking dozens of...
Cloudflare’s network hiccup on December 9 exploded into another high‑profile internet outage, throttling access to widely used services and reigniting questions about the fragility that comes with concentrating so much of the web behind a single edge provider.
Overview
Cloudflare — the San...
Advantech’s move to center its new family of Edge platforms on AMD’s EPYC™ Embedded silicon marks a deliberate shift: bringing data‑center class throughput, expansive I/O and server-grade memory capacity into rugged, long‑lifecycle embedded platforms that run close to the source of data. The...
Cloudflare’s network hiccup on December 5 produced another visible reminder that the modern web rides on a handful of colossal providers: for roughly 25 minutes a deliberate WAF change rolled too far, some edge proxies threw runtime errors, and widely used sites — from AI front ends to Korean...
Cloudflare confirmed that it restored services after a brief but widespread outage on December 5, 2025, that left dozens of high‑profile websites and apps — including professional networks, videoconferencing platforms, shopping and gaming services — intermittently unreachable for roughly half an...
On the morning of December 5, 2025 a wave of 500‑level errors rippled across the public web: LinkedIn, Canva, Zoom and dozens of other high‑traffic services returned “500 Internal Server Error” messages, outage trackers lit up, and millions of users saw content delivery and sign‑in flows fail...
