#Phison is making a major move beyond NAND controllers. With $3.4B in first-half 2026 revenue, Pascari enterprise SSDs and aiDAPTIV are putting the company deeper into #AI infrastructure. @VMblog takes a closer look at the strategy and technology learned while at the @ITPressTour #70 in Palo Alto earlier this month. vmblog.com/bylines/phison-wa… #ITPT #storage

.@ControlUp, a company reinventing IT operations with its AI platform, released findings from an analysis of more than one million real-world help desk tickets, revealing that sign-in problems account for up to 53% of tickets at individual enterprises analyzed. Password resets, account lockouts, disabled accounts and MFA were the main causes. Learn more: vmblog.com/news/controlup-re…

#AIagents can write code in hours. But ~57% of software changes need a database update, and a schema approval can take up to 2 weeks. GemDB's answer: the code is the schema. Change the data model and the database change is already done. No migration script, no downtime.

Some #cyberthreats never stay dead. 🧟 The Phobia DGA family fell from ~62,000 device matches to just 600–700 a day, then surged back to ~25,000 in May. A quiet threat isn't a gone threat. DNS can show the early warning signs. Here's what to watch for in this @VMblog article by Yaëlle Harel of @efficientip: vmblog.com/bylines/the-cyber… #DNS #CyberSecurity

The #AIsecurity incident that does the most damage in 2027 may be one your own company set up. @Dtex_ai's Marshall Heilman's #predictions: an agent follows authorized instructions, takes actions nobody would have approved, and a critical business operation goes down. No attacker needed. Who owns that risk? The CEO and the board. vmblog.com/bylines/five-ai-s… #AIAgents #CyberSecurity #InsiderRisk #2027Predictions

Every #Kubernetes backup holds a hidden #datalake: app data, manifests, RBAC configs, all versioned. But querying it today means a 30-90 minute restore for one SQL query. Expose backups as Apache Iceberg tables and you get time-travel SQL for compliance, security forensics, and #AIagents. No restore needed. The building blocks are here. 🧱 Don't miss this @VMblog article by Michael Haigh of @Veeam #Kasten. vmblog.com/bylines/the-data-… #KubeCon

In 2027, the hardest part of #AI won't be the model. It'll be everything around it. Data validation, provenance, testing whole workflows, and knowing which decisions the model shouldn't make.

The #AI threat most #security teams will face isn't a rogue model escaping its sandbox. It's cheap, widely available AI running old attack playbooks in parallel, at scale. Defenders need quality data and realistic testing before trusting AI in the SOC. Otherwise agents just amplify noise.

The endpoint of 2027 won't be "thin" because it does less. It'll be thin because IT can be deliberate about what actually needs to happen on the device. 7 #predictions from Stuart Pladgeman of @10ZiGTechnology on how cloud PCs, #DaaS, #AI and #security are redefining the #thinclient 👇 vmblog.com/bylines/2027-pred… #VDI #2027predictions

#GPUs are among the most expensive resources in infrastructure, yet production workloads leave most reserved capacity unused. #MIG gives strong isolation but fixed profiles. Software fractioning adds flexibility. But neither decides how a #GPU should be shared right now. According to Pini Ben-Nahum of @zesty_co, the missing piece is the decision engine. vmblog.com/bylines/why-mig-h… #Kubernetes #PlatformEngineering #KubeCon

What happens when a #virtualization project stalls? @rackngo's CEO shares how fixing the #baremetal layer changed everything for one fast-growing company replacing its virtualization stack with #OpenShift. 🚀 The turning point? Executive buy-in to hit the brakes, rethink the approach, and build on a solid bare metal foundation. Now that same company is applying the pattern to its Rancher infrastructure.

As part of the research into selecting a VMware alternative, IT must consider the new platform’s ability to move the organization off the old one. Before comparing migration capabilities, though, IT should establish best practices for the move, then see which potential VMware replacement helps it meet them. Each of the seven practices in this article doubles as a test for the migration function of any platform on your short list. vmblog.com/bylines/vmware-mi…

A GPU slice and a full #GPU both count as "1 device" in your quota. Is that fair? #Kubernetes 1.37 standardizes how devices get allocated. It doesn’t settle quota, tenant isolation, fair share, or chargeback. Those are still your call.

For a large share of businesses, 2027 is the year their phone system moves to IP whether they planned it or not. That migration is overdue, and on paper it is good news. In practice, how a business moves matters more than the fact that it moves.

Backups are table stakes. In 2027, the question is: how fast can you restore? Harish Shenoy of @Databricks predicts 3 shifts in database DR, from restore time becoming a headline metric to restore testing living in CI/CD.
