The AI infrastructure challenge for networking at hyper scale The demands of AI are changing the way datacenters and particularly hyperscale datacenters need to operate. While there are open-source networking stacks such as SONiC, at the hyperscaler layer, there is a need for an extreme level of customization.
Interest in the open-source network operatingsystem SONiC is rising as major networking vendors and start-ups look to offer resources to help enterprises give SONiC a try. SONiC is seen as a significant alternative to more traditional, less flexible network operatingsystems. What is SONiC?
Nokia is offering customers an alternative way to set up datacenter networks by expanding its datacenter fabric package to support the open-source Software for Open Networking in the Cloud ( SONiC ). SONiC is seen as a viable alternative to more traditional, less flexible network operatingsystems.
The platform currently supports 56 operatingsystems across 22 vendors, making it a versatile solution for complex network ecosystems. We’re already infrastructure-as-data right out of the box, so this is really about getting into the infrastructure-as-code pipeline.”
The landscape of datacenter infrastructure is shifting dramatically, influenced by recent licensing changes from Broadcom that are driving up costs and prompting enterprises to reevaluate their virtualization strategies. Clients are seeing increased costs with on-premises virtualization with Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware.
These problems include the time it takes to provision new data services, such as in high availability and disaster recovery, where, Broadcom said, “it can take an enterprise a year or more to properly set up and tune a deployment architectures that includes high availability, disaster recovery and backups.” Not at all.”

When you’re tasked with migrating 200,000 servers to a new operatingsystem, a helping hand is very welcome indeed. In the gold rush race to the cloud, many SaaS vendors have built their offerings on widely available open-source platforms such as CentOS but not all give commercial support anymore.
SQLite is one of the most widely used open-source database technologies and it’s almost always set up to run with local on-device storage. boosts network protocol visibility : The creator of the popular open-source network protocol analyzer talks about what’s new in Wireshark 4.4, Wireshark 4.4
Contemporary models of comparable size typically demand far larger GPU clusters chewing through power in dedicated datacenters. Early tests from AI researcher Awni Hannun confirm that a 4-bit quantized version of DeepSeek-V3 can exceed 20 tokens per second on this system. DeepSeeks quiet success challenges that assumption.
Not only does the data used to train or provide context for the AI reside in various locations, but so does the computing power. So, there’s a race on right now for what company will be the default platform for generative AI, the operatingsystem for the next evolution of the enterprise, the middleware that will tie it all together.

A critical vulnerability in the widely used Xen hypervisor allows attackers to break out of a guest operatingsystem running inside a virtual machine and access the host system's entire memory. The new vulnerability affects Xen 4.8.x, x, and 4.4.x x and has existed in the Xen code base for over four years.
Public cloud providers such as AWS, Google, and Microsoft Azure publish shared responsibility models that push security of the data, platform, applications, operatingsystem, network and firewall configuration, and server-side encryption, to the customer. Opensource applications running in the cloud need to be copyrighted.
The SMD’s mission is to engage with the US science community, sponsor scientific research, and use aircraft, balloon, and spaceflight programs for investigations in Earth orbit, in the Solar System, and beyond. Already the team has implemented a new user interface that allows users to filter by topics before they begin their search.
Advocates also recommend a pooling and federating strategy to standardize and scale European digital infrastructure while supporting open-source initiatives and interoperability across platforms. This fund would strategically target smaller investments to maintain and enhance open-source infrastructure across Europe.
