KubeCon's affordability makes it possible for start-ups to attend and showcase their products and offerings, giving techies like Tom Fenton a glimpse into the future.
"What if I told you that we could take data from your database, feed it to an OpenAI model and have it give us insights about that data?"
Tom says VMware in the past has announced its EUC products at the Europe event, so it will be interesting to see if they continue this trend.
Major industry players including cloud giants Google and AWS publicized an ongoing series of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks that are increasing in size and frequency.
Cloud giant AWS has teamed up with virtualization kingpin VMware and others to work on a Proof of Concept (PoC) for "distributed edge AI networking" as part of an Open Grid Alliance (OGA) project.
