Confluent (IBM): New UK research shows severe data decision pain points for local enterprises. 59% of business leaders rely on intuition for major decisions; 82% face a trade-off between fast and informed decisions; 71% receive outdated C-suite data; 61% believe real-time data streaming will become business-critical within one year.
CTERA: Launched integration with agentic automation platform n8n. The connection securely links enterprise edge-to-cloud file data with diverse business apps and AI tools, while retaining enterprise-grade governance and security, helping users build intelligent content-aware data workflows.
Datadog: Released multiple new observability and security products, including general availability of Bring Your Own Cloud, which lets customers process and index monitoring data inside their own cloud environment. Its native Bits AI now supports full autonomous operations covering the entire development and production lifecycle, beyond mere fault root cause analysis.
d-Matrix: Corsair AI inference accelerator enters full-volume mass shipment for hyperscalers, new cloud vendors and top AI labs. Paired with GPUs in heterogeneous clusters, it delivers 10x faster token generation. In disaggregated AI computing, GPUs handle compute-heavy prefill tasks while Corsair optimizes decode phases, cutting overall latency and power costs for agentic AI workloads.
Frore Systems x Lenovo: The solid-state AirJet Mini chip cooler partners with Lenovo’s innovation team. The fanless cooling solution eliminates thermal limits for slim laptops, tablets and edge AI devices, enabling quieter, faster and longer-running compact hardware, and supporting Lenovo’s next-gen Edge AI thermal stack.
Graid Technology: Took over global Intel VROC business via strategic licensing deal, rebranding the platform as VROC by Graid. It released a 24-month product roadmap covering Xeon 6 platform compatibility, simplified UEFI licensing, joint workstation features with Tier 1 OEMs and mixed GPU/CPU RAID support. Lenovo and Supermicro have endorsed the update, with new features launching in Q3 2026.
Hazelcast: Launched Hazelcast Platform 5.7 focused on failure-resilient data infrastructure complying with DORA and other global financial regulations. Key upgrades include multi-data-center optimized consensus modules with 28% throughput improvement, zero-downtime infrastructure updates, and release-candidate vector collections with split-brain protection.
Hitachi Vantara: Rolled out enhanced EverFlex flexible consumption storage services with standardized outcome-based SLAs, customizable service terms and unified VSP 360 monitoring control plane. Its joint research with FStech uncovered financial sector storage gaps: 35% firms prioritize data growth management, yet only 10% deploy AI-ready storage; 99% face AI workload restrictions due to data sovereignty requirements.
HPE: Won an on-prem AI Factory project with Japan’s Sky Co., Ltd. The client adopts HPE Private Cloud AI (co-developed with NVIDIA) and HPE GreenLake pay-as-you-go services to run secure local AI workloads, avoiding public cloud data governance risks while retaining flexible OPEX billing.
Keepit: Gained four TrustRadius Top Rated certifications covering SaaS backup, data loss prevention, disaster recovery and enterprise backup, based purely on verified customer reviews.
Kioxia: Will showcase space-grade SSD storage solutions for HPE’s spaceborne computing projects at HPE Discover 2026. It also plans mass production of 10th-gen 321-layer BiCS NAND next year, lifting capacity by 59% and speed by 33% compared with the previous generation.
Lightbits Labs: Achieved initial interoperability with Microsoft’s Windows Server native NVMe-oF initiator preview via its v3.19.1 update. The native Windows NVMe-oF support eliminates legacy SCSI protocol limits, bringing high-performance TCP block storage to Windows servers on standard Ethernet networks.
DaSTOR x Myota: DaSTOR BaaS adopts Myota’s sharding technology to split and distribute encrypted backup data. Fragmented data cannot be reassembled by ransomware attackers but remains instantly accessible for authorized users, delivering ransomware immunity for healthcare, finance and government clients.
Neo4j: Acquired GraphAware to build an open, sovereign alternative to Palantir Gotham. The deal adds proven graph analysis tools for defense and financial crime investigation, and accelerates Neo4j’s $100M roadmap for AI autonomous intelligence agents.
RelationalAI: Updated its Snowflake-native agentic decision intelligence platform Rel, empowering AI decision agents to automate pricing, supply chain and resource allocation workflows for joint Snowflake customers.
SK Hynix & Solidigm: SK Hynix plans US stock listing as early as August 2026, sees $6.54B valuation gain on its Kioxia stake, and will nearly triple wafer capacity by 2034 to meet AI memory demand. Its subsidiary Solidigm appointed dual co-CEOs Xin Guo and Richard Chin to drive global innovation and business expansion.
Starburst: Released Enterprise Intelligence Platform for running governed AI analytics across distributed data sources. It integrates multi-agent conversation tools, automatic query optimization, native Iceberg table format and automated lakehouse maintenance into its unified data stack.
StorONE x Myota: StorONE combines its real-time data tiering software with Myota’s sharding tech to boost flash storage utilization by up to 9x, cutting SSD usage while adding end-to-end ransomware protection for enterprise storage systems.
TrendForce Q1 2026 Enterprise SSD Report: AI agent adoption pushes enterprise SSD revenue to a new record. Severe supply shortages drive contract prices up 80% quarter-on-quarter. All top five vendors saw sequential growth, while SK Hynix/Solidigm posted the slowest growth amid market share losses. DRAM shortages also accelerate enterprise SSD adoption as memory tier alternatives.
VAST Data: Australia’s Megaport selected VAST AI OS to power its global distributed AI infrastructure network. Combined with NVIDIA BlueField-4 DPUs and Megaport’s global data center connectivity, the platform enables silo-free cross-cloud AI data management and fast distributed AI workload deployment.
Wasabi: Extended multi-year official cloud storage sponsorship with Liverpool FC. It will leverage its intelligent media storage service Wasabi AiR to optimize the club’s global fan content distribution, while expanding brand influence across Europe, Asia and North America via football partnership.
Zadara: Joined the Open Cloud Coalition, a 27-member industry alliance advocating open, competitive, secure and resilient cloud services across UK, EU and global markets.
