AI Armor provides dynamic runtime security and relies on a central policy engine in the Universal Management Suite (UMS) to meet compliance requirements, ensuring that organizations can manage their security effectively.

It's the largest deal of this kind to date for CFS, according to COO Rick Needham. The collaboration with Realta Fusion emphasizes the importance of high-temperature superconducting magnets in advancing fusion technology.

As businesses contend with ever-increasing data volumes and performance-intensive applications such as AI model training, AI inferencing and high-performance computing, they need infrastructure that delivers speed, scalability and efficiency without added complexity.

We are making sure that we have renewable energy powering all of our datacentre footprint. We have 100% renewable power today that is powering all of Azure, and we're very proud to build that base and essentially stimulate renewable energy around the world and in the UK.

Artificial intelligence is transforming every part of our society, but its energy appetite is unlike anything we've seen before. The electricity required to power AI datacenters is expected to double or triple in the coming decade, straining infrastructure that is already under pressure. ORNL is uniquely positioned to meet this challenge.

A year ago, Redwood Materials didn't have an energy storage business. Now, it is the fastest-growing unit within the battery recycling and materials startup - a reflection of an AI data center building boom. The evidence of that growth, the company says, can be found at its R&D lab in San Francisco, which has expanded four-fold into a 55,000-square-foot facility and now employs nearly 100 people.

Data centers drive climate change by burning fossil fuels, using large amounts of electricity, and requiring up to five million gallons of water a day to fuel cooling systems. Research has shown these facilities can harm the health of local residents through air and noise pollution, while providing minimal long-term job stimulus.

The facility once produced paper, the raw material of the newspaper information age. Now, Borlänge will produce the raw material for AI and the next information age. This declaration by EcoDataCenter's CEO Peter Michelson symbolizes the transformation of industrial sites into critical infrastructure for artificial intelligence development and deployment.

Lenovo has announced a new series of enterprise servers and solutions specifically designed for AI inferencing workloads. These consist of three different ThinkSystem and ThinkEdge servers. "Enterprises today need AI that can turn massive amounts of data into insight the moment it's created," said Ashley Gorakhpurwalla, President of Lenovo Infrastructure Solutions Group. "With Lenovo's new inferencing-optimized infrastructure, we are giving customers that real-time advantage."

Constructing datacenters accounts for 39 percent of their total carbon dioxide emissions, almost as much as operating them, according to an environmental analysis covering the entire lifecycle of a facility. The finding comes from a white paper published by European datacenter operator Data4, which conducted a lifecycle assessment (LCA) of one of its own facilities with the assistance of design and engineering consultants APL Data Center.

Intel is making a new push into GPUs, this time with a focus on data center workloads, as the chipmaker looks to reestablish itself in a market increasingly shaped by AI-driven demand and dominated by Nvidia. CEO Lip-Bu Tan said that after hiring a senior GPU architect, the company is working directly with customers to define requirements, signaling a more demand-driven approach as enterprises and cloud providers weigh their options for accelerated computing, according to a Reuters report.

The US is now leading a global surge in new gas power plants being built in large part to satisfy growing energy demand for data centers. And more gas means more planet-heating pollution. Gas-fired power generation in development globally rose by 31 percent in 2025. Almost a quarter of that added capacity is slated for the US, which has surpassed China with the biggest increase of any country.

Despite the Trump administration's opposition to renewables, solar power will likely remain part of datacenter energy supply mix due to its low cost. This is according to financial analyst Jefferies, which says in a research note - shared with The Register - that clean energy companies are going "on the offense" and adapting to the changing times in which they find themselves.

A looming shortage of electrical power is set to constrain datacenter expansion, potentially leaving many industry growth forecasts looking overly optimistic. In its latest report, " Five Predictions for 2026," Uptime Institute says that power will become the defining constraint on datacenter growth in 2026 and beyond. This is because it simply isn't possible to add extra grid and generating capacity at the same rate as new server farms are popping up, so something is going to have to give.

The Xeon 600 lineup spans the gamut between 12 and 86 performance cores (no cut-down efficiency cores here), with support for between four and eight channels of DDR5 and 80 to 128 lanes of PCIe 5.0 connectivity. Compared to its aging W-3500-series chips, Intel is claiming a 9 percent uplift in single threaded workloads and up to 61 percent higher performance in multithreaded jobs, thanks in no small part to an additional 22 processor cores this generation.
