The pace of innovation in cloud computing continues unabated, with AWS recently unveiling durable functions for AWS Lambda. This move could have significant implications for how enterprises design and orchestrate complex serverless workflows. As someone who has tracked and analyzed cloud evolution for decades, I view Amazon’s new offering as both a testament to the

GitHub Copilot is one of the more mature AI assistants in use, having begun life as a way to use AI tools for code completion. Since then, Copilot has added features, becoming a resource for coordinating and orchestrating a wide variety of development-focused agents and services. Part of that development has been making Copilot available

The impacts of AI are mostly viewed through the lens of improving business processes, but AI is poised to have long-term impacts on engineering too. Not only can AI make it easier for engineers to bring their ideas to life, but it can also remove the burden of manual toil that keeps them from focusing

Snowflake has launched Cortex Code, an AI-based coding agent that aims to extend AI assistance beyond SQL generation and conversational analytics into data and app development tasks. Cortex Code is designed to understand enterprise data context, including schemas, governance rules, compute constraints, and production workflows, Christian Kleinerman, EVP of Product at Snowflake, said during a

OpenAI has launched a standalone Codex app to manage multiple AI coding agents across projects, pushing beyond chat-based code generation as enterprises weigh the impact of more autonomous tools on development workflows and governance. The move comes as OpenAI faces intensifying competition from rivals such as Anthropic and GitHub. Last month, Anthropic introduced Cowork, a

Across industries, CIOs are rolling out generative AI through SaaS platforms, embedded copilots, and third-party tools at a speed that traditional governance frameworks were never designed to handle. AI now influences customer interactions, hiring decisions, financial analysis, software development, and knowledge work — often without being formally deployed in the classical sense. The result is

How much would you pay each month for a Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple home accessories and a handful of Apple services, including health and home security services? More to the point, how many of Apple’s 2.5 billion users would be willing to pay for the Apple Plus Services suite, and how much would this generate each month

Moltbot, the cutting-edge, open-source AI “sidekick” formerly known as Clawdbot, recently rebranded as OpenClaw and is now crazy popular. It came out of nowhere to become the first viral AI agent with 70,000 GitHub Stars in a month.  Its creator, Peter Steinberger, claims it’s “the AI that actually does things.” Yeah, well there are a

If you are a data and analytics leader, then you know agentic AI is fuelling unprecedented speed of change right now. Knowing you need to do something and knowing what to do, however, are two different things. The good news is providers like ThoughtSpot are able to assist, with the company in its own words

HMRC has selected SAP to overhaul its core revenue systems and place AI at the centre of the UK’s tax administration strategy. The contract represents a broader shift in how public sector bodies approach automation. Rather than layering AI tools over legacy infrastructure, HMRC is replacing the underlying architecture to support machine learning and automated
