Many organisations are starting to realise that the infrastructure that they have relied on for so long to underpin their data estate, is now working against their efforts to deploy AI; and they're starting to see their costs rising and carbon footprint expanding. In this opinion piece published by ComputerWeekly.com, Jitender Aswani, senior vice president of engineering at Starburst outlines why he believes the answer lies in AI, GreenOps and FinOps being baked into architecture models from the outset.

Saviynt has launched an identity control plane for AI agents, focused on visibility, governance, and real-time access control. As AI agents move into production, writing code, executing transactions and orchestrating workflows most enterprises still lack the ability to see or govern these non-human identities. The announcement reflects a broader shift in identity security, as organisations look to secure AI-driven activity at the same level as human access.

In a recent piece for TechRadar Pro, Nutanix' Steen Dalgas explores how cloud strategy is entering a more complex phase for enterprise leaders. As AI-driven workloads scale, assumptions around cost predictability, elastic capacity, and infrastructure availability are being challenged. The article highlights how CIOs and CTOs are increasingly balancing performance, risk, and financial exposure often turning to hybrid models to retain flexibility. It also points to a broader shift: cloud decisions are no longer purely technical, but central to governance, resilience, and long-term planning. Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/eAeXxC5V

Neoclouds are emerging as a new layer in #AI infrastructure, built around high-performance GPU workloads. Dan Chester, EMEA sales director for cloud service providers at VAST Data provides his perspective here in ComputerWeekly.com, noting that many enterprises will develop their own training models, evolving over time and becoming increasingly tailored to their needs: https://lnkd.in/ehkp7a7p

How do you secure a modern business when identities no longer belong only to employees, but also to partners, machines, applications, and increasingly AI agents? In this episode of Tech Talks Network, Neil C. Hughes sat down with Paul Zolfaghari, President of Saviynt, to unpack why identity security has moved from a background IT function to one of the defining challenges facing modern enterprises. Over the past decade, the identity problem has expanded far beyond the traditional office worker logging into internal systems. Today's organisations must manage access across a vast digital ecosystem that includes contractors, suppliers, customers, APIs, machines, and now autonomous AI agents.
