Encryption Key Management: The Cloud Migration Bottleneck

Cloud migration projects stall for plenty of reasons, legacy dependencies, network latency, data residency rules. But one blocker that doesn't get enough attention is encryption key management. More specifically, the question of who controls the keys once data moves off-premises. For security teams, that question can hold up a migration for months.

Cloud Outage History: Six Years of Recurring Failures

Cloud infrastructure has never been more reliable in theory. In practice, the last six years of cloud outage history have delivered some of the most disruptive incidents on record. Not because cloud providers got worse, but because the systems built on top of them got larger, more interconnected, and more brittle in ways that don't show up until everything breaks at once.

How are hyperscalers misleading the cloud industry?

In 2024, Mark Boost, CEO at Civo, introduced the concept of ‘cloud parity’, a cloud computing approach that ensures a consistent, identical experience, feature set, and operational model across public, private, hybrid, and edge environments. “Cloud parity gives teams the freedom the cloud was supposed to deliver in the first place. It gives enterprises the sovereignty they need. It gives public sector bodies the clarity they require.

Beyond code execution: the strategic case for stateful AI sandboxes

While ephemeral sandboxes are effective for isolated code execution, enterprise AI agents require a more robust context to be reliable.
