A former U.S. intelligent official said that data center server provider Supermicro was the "Microsoft of the hardware world" and that attacking Supermicro motherboards was "like attacking the whole world.”
The company has seen a 500 percent increase in sales since its last funding round in 2016.
Some companies argue that providing access to a POP network via cloud gateways is a competitive advantage.
Lack of expertise and integrated tools, not indifference, is leaving NetOps behind DevOps in the race to automate the deployment pipeline.
Many programs have a tough time spanning across high levels of concurrency, but if they are cleverly coded, databases can make great use of massively parallel compute based in hardware to radically speed up the time it takes to run complex queries against large datasets. …

While a new fund by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) has disappointed some Internet advocacy groups, we believe it could be critical to bringing Indigenous and northern communities online and closing Canada’s digital divide.
The Broadband Fund is slated to provide $750 million over five years, in addition to $500 million in funding by Innovation, Science & Economic Development Canada (ISED) to help Canada meet its universal service objective.
The CRTC is catching heat for halving project eligibility speeds, from 50 Mbps downloads to 25 Mbps (with a plan to scale to the original target), that were laid out in 2016 as part of a declaration that all Canadians should have broadband Internet as a basic telecommunications service. Because of this, some are saying it may give applicants less incentive to achieve the universal service target.
While speed is an important measure of Internet quality, it is not the only measure of success.
What I believe many are overlooking is that eligible applicants not only must outline how they’re going to consult communities as part of their plan, they must commit to respecting treaty and land claim rights if the project impacts Indigenous communities.

In the original Clos network every voice call would get a dedicated path across the fabric, and the number of voice calls supported by the fabric equaled the number of alternate end-to-end paths.
