In enterprise IT, most security upgrades typically occur in response to breaches or other significant incidents. The recently developed INCITS FC-SP-3 standard, however, represents a proactive response to regulatory and cryptographic deadlines that are already influencing infrastructure planning. The NSA’s CNSA 2.0 guidance presents National Security Systems with a complex migration path, while the European
Eaton is getting ready to ship the kind of PDU that didn’t need to exist five years ago. The HDXL Rack PDU G4, arriving in the fourth quarter of 2026, delivers 56-81kW from a single zero-U unit, with 24 outlets, 21 branch breakers, and a 100A corded or 140A terminal-block input. Four models launch in
For two decades, the SSD-versus-HDD conversation ended the same way: flash wins on performance, disk wins on price per terabyte, and the size of that price gap settled the argument in favor of bulk storage. As storage technology has matured and AI has taken over, that framing is clearly out of date. The largest data
The KIOXIA CM9-R is the first enterprise SSD family built on eighth-generation BiCS FLASH, and the 15.36TB E3.S model in our lab is the volume sweet spot of the range: 3,400K random read IOPS and 14,800 MB/s of sequential read from a drive with a 25W typical active rating. Gen5 enterprise drives routinely push into
The Solidigm D7-PS1030 is the mid-endurance arm of the company’s first PCIe 5.0 data center family, pairing the platform it shares with the D7-PS1010 with a 3 DWPD rating and a random write ceiling of up to 800K IOPS, double the 400K of its standard-endurance sibling. The family ranges from 1.6TB to 12.8TB across E3.S
High availability has moved from a data center luxury to a line item in ordinary resiliency planning. Small businesses and edge sites now run point-of-sale, surveillance, and shared storage that cost money every minute they are down, yet the classic answer, a dual-controller enterprise array, is sized and priced for the data center rather than
Ubiquiti continues to expand its UniFi power ecosystem with the UPS 2U Pro, a higher-capacity rackmount UPS designed for larger network racks, storage systems, and other infrastructure that needs centralized power protection and management. Following the company’s initial entry into the UPS market with the UPS Tower and UPS 2U, the new Pro model builds
The Enterprise NAS (ENAS) is Ubiquiti’s first run at more enterprise-lite business storage. The 3U chassis holds 16 hot-swap drive bays, an eight-core Arm Neoverse N2 processor, 64GB of ECC memory, dual 25GbE SFP28 ports, and redundant hot-swap 550W power supplies, all for $3,999 MSRP. One pricing note: Ubiquiti’s store currently applies a memory surcharge
Enterprise AI infrastructure has shifted from optimizing training models to serving them, and that changes the economics. Training is a capital project with an endpoint. Inference is a production workload that runs as long as the service is live, with output measured in tokens. This is the tokenomics problem now facing AI operators: once the
Ubiquiti continues to expand into the enterprise wireless market with the introduction of the UniFi E7 and E7-Campus, two flagship WiFi 7 access points designed for high-density, high-performance deployments. Built around a 10-stream tri-band radio architecture, 10GbE connectivity, and the latest 802.11be standard, the E7 family marks a significant step forward from previous UniFi generations,
