SiliconANGLE & theCUBE

TheCUBE Wired team was on-site at #MCPDevSummit covering the builders, breakthroughs, and bold moves driving the ecosystem forward. If the energy on this expo floor is any indication, the agentic AI future isn't "coming soon" — it's already here. Stay tuned for #theCUBE’s full coverage. #AIAgents #MCP #DeveloperCommunity #NYSEWired John Furrier Gemma Allen Brian J. Baumann

The countdown to #SUSECON 2026 is on! 🗓️ Join us starting April 21 on theCUBE.net as we dive deep into the next era of open infrastructure. To get a taste of what’s coming, #theCUBE’s Rebecca M. Knight and Paul Nashawaty sat down with Peter Smails, GM of Cloud Native at SUSE, at #KubeConEU to discuss why SUSE is no longer "just a Linux company." “SUSE is not the company everybody thinks it is. We're leaders in the underlying operating system stuff, container management and virtualization, and also in things like SUSE AI, which is essentially a turnkey platform for securely governing and running AI workloads. It's open, flexible, secure and governed. That's our pitch for SUSE AI,” Smails shares. “We're also leaders in the edge. We recently purchased a company called Losant, which is a leader in IoT. We're cutting edge in that front, no pun intended. We want to make sure that all the listeners out there just understand fundamentally that SUSE is not just an old-school Linux company. We are an open-infra company, leading the open-infra charge, and we see ourselves as the future for modern workloads,” he adds. 💡 Dig further into SUSE AI at #SUSECON — kicking off on Apr. 21 on theCUBE.net. https://lnkd.in/dEWsQaJx #OpenInfra #AI #AIWorkloads #ContainerManagement #SUSEAI #EnterpriseAI

Enterprises can now build 20 megawatts on Crusoe’s Spark Factory 🤖 In this episode of #theCUBE + NYSE Wired: AI Factories - Data Centers of the Future, our host John Furrier speaks with Erwan Menard, SVP Engineering at Crusoe, about how their Spark data center caters to the increasing density of energy. “Gigawatt scale data centers are super important to get the right economies of scale. We've built a number of them. The design of the data center is completely revisited because of the density of energy. Five years ago, you would have designed for 15 kilowatt per rack energy density. You take GB200, you're already at 120 kilowatt per rack and it's going to go higher from there with Vera Rubin. You need to design those data centers well, and there is a lot of value at the edge,” Menard shares. “That's why we built the modular data center called Spark. It's a container where you get half a megawatt. I can put 20 of those together and build 5, 10 megawatts, and that's going to be super helpful to inference the model and have all the data saved in a specific location. Think of healthcare, retail, manufacturing and governmental use cases. You need to serve both ways because you want to get the best performance, super latency at the edge, but you also want to be compliant with requirements of geographical specific deployment,” he adds. 💡 Get more insights! https://lnkd.in/gA2guTMs #DataCenters #AIFactories #Energy #SparkFactory #EnterpriseAI

#theCUBE Research is expanding! We are thrilled to welcome Krista Case (Macomber) as our new Principal Analyst and Practice Lead for Cyber Resilience and Security 🚀 Krista will collaborate with Analyst in Residence for Cybersecurity Jon Oltsik on research, advisory and building the "signal" enterprise leaders need in a shifting threat landscape. Learn more about Krista and her work with theCUBE Research: https://lnkd.in/gr62VDE4 Cyber resilience is a top priority on theCUBE’s agenda. Krista brings 15+ years of elite experience from The Futurum Group, Evaluator Group and TechTarget, most recently leading data security marketing at OpenText. Krista will help our community navigate:  🔹 Data Security: Protecting and governing sensitive data wherever it resides.  🔹 Identity in the AI Era: Securing AI agents and other non-human identities.  🔹 SOC Transformation: Moving from reactive triage to better prioritization and faster response.  🔹 Operationalizing Trust: Making security decisions measurable and enforceable across the business. The mission is clear: help organizations reduce risk by controlling access to sensitive data and detecting and remediating risk in real-time. 🛡️ Please join us in welcoming Krista to the team! #CyberResilience #theCUBEResearch #Cybersecurity #AI #InfoSec #TechAnalyst #DataGovernance

AI is changing the database stack – and #theCUBE’s “Oracle Data Deep Dive NYC” event will examine what that means for enterprise infrastructure 🗄️ Oracle’s latest moves point to a broader redesign of the database for AI, from vector search and AI agents to Model Context Protocol support and lakehouse integration. The April 14 coverage will drill into how Oracle is linking proprietary enterprise data to major AI models and reshaping compute infrastructure around that shift. 🔍 🔗 Check out the full story: https://lnkd.in/dYsCw5eq Security is also central to the story. Oracle is integrating privacy enforcement into the database layer to limit data exposure by design while also adding quantum-safe encryption to protect data at rest and in flight. For teams watching AI safety, governance and enterprise readiness, this is where the conversation gets more concrete 📊 “Organizations realize they can't just throw LLMs at the opportunity without a solid data infrastructure,” said David Vellante, chief analyst at theCUBE Research. “Specifically, a strong database foundation with modern capabilities like vector search and the ability to handle multiple data types. On April 14, we'll be digging into the key aspects of enabling enterprise AI and specifically how Oracle is approaching AI innovation while addressing AI safety.” Don’t miss theCUBE’s exclusive event on April 14. 🎥

Proprietary data is going to be the differentiator for companies ⚖️ In this #RSAC2026 exclusive, #theCUBE’s David Vellante sits down with Prashant P., SVP & Head of Product at Capital One Software, to discuss how they help enterprises unlock their proprietary data to make their AI models smarter than competitors. “Data is the new currency with AI. Before, information was siloed in many places, but the internet made that okay. I think that's what's going to happen with intelligence. You're going to have common intelligence everywhere that you can get from the internet. But what differentiates a business long term is the proprietary things that make your AI models much smarter than your competitors because common knowledge is going to be everywhere,” Prahlad shares. “That proprietary data exists but it is sitting somewhere because somebody is afraid that this data has sensitive information or this data is not being utilized correctly or the fear of AI using this data to do something malicious. For us, that's the opportunity. With Databolt, we enable companies in the future, but the data is going to be the differentiator. How do we unlock that for our customers? That's what was behind some of our products,” he adds. 💡 Get more insights! https://lnkd.in/gyUt_BzF #ProprietaryData #AIModels #Intelligence #Data #AI #EnterpriseAI

Developers don’t just need open stack access – They need recipes 🧑💻 Join #theCUBE x NYSE Wired’s Gemma Allen at #NvidiaGTCAI 2026, as she speaks with Kevin Cochrane, CMO of Vultr, about how they enable developers to leverage a vertically integrated, horizontally open stack for building and deploying. “Until now, the game has been about access and availability of GPUs. At Vultr, we have always focused on the developer experience. Developers don't just need access, availability or the best performance. They need a vertically integrated, horizontally open stack. They need recipes. They need examples of all of the different things that they can build and deploy on Vultr infrastructure on Nvidia GPUs, and they need an open ecosystem,” Cochrane explains. “They need a horizontally open ecosystem so they can pick and choose all of the third party services that they need to build in their stack. Here at Vultr, what we specialize in is not just the access, performance, availability or open transparent pricing. It's giving them all of the vertical recipes for different use cases and having the biggest, broadest ecosystem so they have freedom, choice and flexibility,” he adds. 💡 Get more insights! https://lnkd.in/eVHupVJg #OpenStack #OpenEcosystem #NvidiaGPU #VultrInfrastructure #TechNews
