The arms race in the area of artificial intelligence is no longer the domain of software alone. The latest figures show that the real battle is now being fought over concrete and silicon. November brought a historic record in the…
Just a decade ago, the definition of a ‘secure business’ was simple: a robust firewall, up-to-date anti-virus and regular backup. Today, in the age of hybrid environments and ubiquitous artificial intelligence, this approach sounds like an archaism. Data has given…
The rapid adoption of artificial intelligence has ceased to be just a software trend and has become a tough engineering and logistical challenge. According to the latest Data Centre Construction Cost Index 2025 report by Turner & Townsend, the data…
For almost two decades, cloud architecture has been based on one seemingly inviolable dogma: data that is rarely used should be ‘frozen’. The Cloud Object Storage model, shaped in the mid-2000s by Amazon (S3), defined the standard for thinking about…
Nvidia ‘s decision to fundamentally change the memory architecture in its AI servers could cause an unprecedented price shock across the semiconductor supply chain. According to the latest analysis by Counterpoint Research, server memory prices are on course to double…
Traditional data centres are failing to meet the demands of the new era. According to Lenovo’s ‘Data Centre of the Future’ study, almost half (46%) of IT managers in EMEA admit that their current infrastructure does not support power and…
The growing demand for computing power for artificial intelligence is clearly translating into financial performance for infrastructure providers. Iron Mountain, a company historically associated mainly with the secure storage of physical documents, showed strength in this segment. The company beat…
The explosion of investment in AI-powered data centres is creating serious bottlenecks in global supply chains. The warning came from Chey Tae-won, chairman of SK Group – a South Korean conglomerate that includes SK Hynix, one of the leading suppliers…
Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, charts a vision of the future in which the gigawatt data centres powering the development of artificial intelligence leave Earth and move into orbit. In his view, this will happen in the next 10-20 years.…
The development of artificial intelligence is not just about computational advances. Training linguistic and generative models requires thousands of GPU/TPU accelerators that devour tens of megawatts of power. As a result, electricity consumption in data centres is increasing – in…
Until a decade ago, data centres remained in the shadows – treated as the technical back office of the business, a place to host applications, mail or store data. They were indispensable, but few outside the industry gave much thought…
In Duchnice near Ozarow Mazowiecki, in a site that only two years ago was an empty plot of land, today stands the first of three buildings of the most modern data centre campus in Poland. Atman, the leader of the…
A fire at a key government data centre in Daejeon has partially paralysed digital public services in South Korea, one of the world’s most computerised countries. The incident highlighted fundamental gaps in the government’s business continuity and disaster recovery strategy.…
Today’s data centre has ceased to be just a back-office IT facility; it has become an engine that drives innovation. The explosion of data, driven largely by generative artificial intelligence, is forcing a fundamental re-evaluation of the storage infrastructure. In…
In response to the growing demand for computing power for artificial intelligence, Schneider Electric is launching two new data centre reference designs in collaboration with NVIDIA. Their aim is to reduce deployment times and facilitate the construction of infrastructures capable…
Generative artificial intelligence is no longer a futuristic curiosity from the headlines. Today, it is a powerful business tool, actively deployed in companies to optimise processes, create innovative products and gain competitive advantage. However, this technological revolution has a huge…
In the nooks and crannies of many company server rooms there are still devices running, the rebooting of which raises legitimate concerns. Office workstations run applications with interfaces that remember decades gone by. They are the quiet heroes of everyday…
How a strategic choice of cost-centric IT infrastructure becomes a source of real profit and market power. This is a story about how green transformation, starting in the server room, is one of the smartest business decisions a company can…
Microsoft, in collaboration with researchers at the University of Southampton, has unveiled a new generation of fibre-optic cable that could significantly impact network architecture in data centres and the development of artificial intelligence. The technology, based on the work of…
SAP intends to invest more than €20 billion (approximately $23 billion) to develop its sovereign cloud offering in the European Union. This is a strategic response to the growing demand for data sovereignty, driven by regulations such as RODO and…
With a single command, we turn a few words into a photorealistic image. We have complex conversations with a chatbot that writes code for us in seconds or analyses voluminous documents. This digital ‘magic’, which only a few years ago…
