GPU-as-a-Service: The network's critical role in accelerated computing

The explosion of AI has created a continuous demand for computing power. At the heart of this need sits one critical resource: GPUs. They have become the hardware of choice for AI and machine learning, particularly deep learning workloads that operate on enormous data sets. However, as organisations race to train larger models and deliver faster inference, many are discovering that owning and operating GPU infrastructure isn’t always practical.

Predict, compare, and reduce costs with our S3 cost calculator

Previously I have written about how useful public cloud storage can be when starting a new project without knowing how much data you will need to store. However, as datasets grow over time, the costs of public cloud storage can become overwhelming. This is where an on premise, or co-located, self-hosted storage system becomes advantageous: it provides the greatest range of benefits, including cost, performance, security, and data sovereignty.

Improve performance and reliability with APM Recommendations

SREs and application developers rely on telemetry data to understand and improve their systems. As organizations scale and evolve, those systems generate an ever-growing volume of metrics, logs, and traces. But more data alone does not make it easier to improve performance or reliability: Identifying meaningful optimizations still requires careful investigation and analysis.

How Forward Thinking HR Teams Are Rethinking Company Benefits

Company benefits used to follow a familiar script. Health insurance, a retirement plan, maybe a gym discount. Today, that script is being rewritten. Modern HR teams are questioning old assumptions and designing benefits that reflect how people actually live and work. The shift is strategic, cultural, and deeply connected to how organisations attract talent and build loyalty.

How VETRO's Network Inventory Management Software Solves Data Chaos for Fiber Providers

Fiber network operators often grapple with fragmented data, leading to inefficiencies and operational challenges. In many organizations, critical information is scattered across spreadsheets, legacy systems, and proprietary databases. These silos make it difficult for teams to access the latest network information, leading to outdated records, miscommunication between departments, and delays in service delivery. Moreover, reliance on manual data entry and inconsistent data formats can introduce errors, further complicating the maintenance of data accuracy and integrity.
