What is sovereignty washing? When cloud control is more marketing than reality

In 2025, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced plans for an EU Cloud and AI Development Act, prioritizing digital sovereignty amidst growing concerns over data security and privacy. These concerns have been fueled by Edward Snowden's 2013 revelations about US surveillance and further intensified by the Trump administration's actions and rhetoric, including its criticism of EU digital regulations and threats to US tech companies.

Your Cloud Economics Pulse For February 2026

Welcome to February’s Cloud Economics Pulse, CloudZero’s monthly look at cloud spend as AI moves from experiment to expectation. Last month, we closed out 2025 with a settling: provider shares locked in, compute softened, and AI claimed more of the mix (big surprise there). January confirmed those patterns weren’t year-end hustle and bustle. They signify a new baseline. Also, the Big Three (AWS, GCP, Azure) barely moved. They’re as entrenched as can be.

Kubernetes Vs. OpenStack: How They Differ, How They Work Together, And When To Use Each

Kubernetes and OpenStack are not competitors. They operate at different layers of the stack and are often used together. OpenStack manages cloud infrastructure such as compute, storage, and networking. Kubernetes runs on top of that infrastructure to deploy, scale, and manage containerized applications. Teams often compare them as alternatives, but in practice, Kubernetes frequently runs on OpenStack.

Are Businesses Leaving the Cloud?

Learn the truth about cloud repatriation, the motivations behind it, and whether it’s really happening as much as you think. For years, the cloud has been the default solution for businesses wanting speed of deployment with quick and easy scalability. And while the cloud promises endless resources at your fingertips, a lot of network teams are having the conversation about whether to pull their workloads back out of the public cloud and run them on their own hardware or private cloud again.

We Measured AI Impact for 12 Months. Here's What Actually Happened.

When we rolled out AI coding tools across our engineering team, the first few weeks felt great. Developers were enthusiastic. Acceptance rates looked healthy. Everyone said they felt more productive. Then my CEO asked me a simple question: “Is it working?” And I realized I didn’t have a good answer. Feeling productive and being productive are not the same thing.

"Crown Jewels In, Crown Jewels Out" - The Hidden Risk of AI

How do you secure data in the age of Agentic AI? In this episode of ShipTalk, Dewan Ahmed sits down with Devan Shah, Chief Architect of Data Security at IBM, to explore the massive shift from traditional DevOps to AI-infused software delivery. Devan shares his journey from being a chef to leading an "army" of 450+ developers at IBM. They dive deep into the technical bedrock of IBM’s "OnePipeline" (built on Tekton and Argo CD), the rise of Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), and the architectural principles required to ship AI features without compromising security or compliance.

Building new revenue streams: 3 strategic cloud opportunities for telcos in 2026

The telecommunications industry is at a turning point: telcos are seeking ways to turn innovation into new opportunities. Looking at the data, the desire is easy to understand. In 2023, PWC projected that the sector’s annual growth rate would slow significantly between 2024 and 2028.
