IPv6 availability now reaches more than half of measured website hosts, but provider-led deployment means the global figure can obscure how heavily adoption depends on major hosting, cloud, CDN, DNS and email platforms. more
The European Commission has adopted an A-to-G sustainability rating system for larger data centers, grading energy and water efficiency as EU computing demand grows and regulators consider binding performance standards. more
The 8,000-kilometre Candle submarine cable has landed in Batam, advancing a six-market Asian system designed for 570 Tbps capacity, 24 fiber pairs and geographically diverse routes ahead of commercial service in 2028. more
AWS says Iranian strikes caused permanent customer data loss in Bahrain and the UAE, exposing the limits of Availability Zone redundancy when physical destruction affects multiple cloud facilities within a region. more
Amazon's Qualcomm deal spans custom AI inference chips and optical networking, with equity warrants tied to purchasing milestones reaching $60 billion, potentially expanding competition across the data-center compute and connectivity supply chain. more
Canada's voluntary framework asks data-center developers to cover electricity-system costs, limit water and environmental impacts, disclose local effects and deliver national benefits as the country expands sovereign AI and cloud infrastructure. more
Overlapping outages disrupted ChatGPT, Claude and Grok on September 3, but their providers have identified no common cause, leaving unanswered whether the failures were coincidental or reflected an unseen shared dependency. more
AWS plans a 420 Tbps transpacific subsea cable linking Washington state and Japan by 2029, adding a geographically distinct route designed to strengthen cloud connectivity and reduce reliance on concentrated Pacific landing corridors. more
Estonia's data embassy model offers African governments a different approach to digital sovereignty, combining cross-border infrastructure, legal safeguards and geographic redundancy to keep critical state systems secure, recoverable and operational during major disruptions. more
Governments, corporations and Indian Tribes increasingly want to keep their data out of Big Tech's hands. The push for data sovereignty could reshape cloud computing, favoring private AI systems over sprawling, centralized data centers. more
Africa's pursuit of digital sovereignty demands more than keeping data at home. True resilience depends on controlling the infrastructure, platforms, cybersecurity capabilities, governance, and human expertise that underpin an increasingly interconnected digital economy across Africa. more
Orbiting data centers promise cleaner power, cheaper cooling and relief from terrestrial opposition, but formidable engineering, regulatory and orbital governance challenges may keep ambitious space-based computing grounded for years unless launch economics improve dramatically first. more
IP geolocation has evolved from routing metadata into essential Internet infrastructure, enabling compliant content delivery, cybersecurity, and digital governance while raising urgent questions about transparency, interoperability, and fragmentation risks worldwide for policymakers and providers alike. more
NANOG 97 revealed how AI is reshaping network infrastructure, from lossless data centre fabrics and optical limits to surging investment, while exposing unresolved questions about geolocation, IPv6 adoption and Internet operations in an AI-driven era. more
A website's server location is only part of the privacy equation. The host's legal jurisdiction can determine whether foreign authorities gain access to data, exposing gaps between GDPR compliance, data sovereignty and real-world protection. more
