cloud-computing

_International Journal of New Media Studies_ 8 (2):13-21. 2021Recent innovations in cloud computing have prompted a sea change away from monolithic systems to cloud-native architecture, enablingdevelopers to build adaptable, scalable, and modularapplications. Key technologies such as serverless computing, containerization, and microservices architecture are used in cloud-native development, enhan…

Krutrim's pivot to cloud after layoffs and limited product updates reflects the economic challenges of building AI models in India.

I’ve spent the last fifteen years building cloud services: early days of AWS building S3 and EBS, helping launch Oracle Cloud Infrastructure from inception, and now building the agentic cloud at DigitalOcean for AI-natives. Every cloud I’ve worked on was designed for the workloads of its era. Those clouds were built for human-centric SaaS applications: a few users, a handful of requests per sessi…

Scientific Reports, Published online: 05 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41598-026-50657-1 An intelligent cloud-based battery management framework integrating GRU state-of-health estimation and double DQN charging optimisation

Last week, OpenRouter raised at a $1.3B valuation. They route API requests between AI models and charge 5% commission. 8 humans run the whole thing. I've been building an alternative called NeuralBridge that does the same thing — with zero human operators and zero commission. Here's why I think compute arbitrage is the next big infrastructure category: The Analogy: Oil → Compute The Gulf states b…

Introduction Standard multi-regional deployments often fall victim to centralized networking bottlenecks and shared control plane failures. When a primary cloud region experiences a backbone connectivity issue, the entire distributed system can lose its ability to synchronize state, leading to split-brain scenarios and data corruption. Engineers frequently rely on simple public internet VPNs for …

Moving files into S3 as fast as possible has been a side-quest of mine for, well, two decades (yep, S3 is more than 20 years old ). My first encounter with moving large numbers of files to S3 was from an on-premise system, working over a backlog of many thousands of files, with thousands of new ones appearing each day. For that project I tried the obvious path (a foreach loop doing uploads one by…

As a frontend developer, you’ve probably faced the need to deploy a web application — whether for a professional assignment, a client demo, or a personal project. Today, there’s no shortage of hosting options. Many platforms provide their own infrastructure or rely on major cloud providers like Amazon Web Services , Google Cloud , or Microsoft Azure behind the scenes. What often goes unnoticed is…

What is Azure Storage? Azure storage is Microsoft's cloud storage solution. It allows storage of unstructured data, pdfs, file shares etc. The following steps in this article outlines how I was able to create storage for the department's testing and training. Create a resource group and a storage account In the Azure portal, search for and select Resource groups Select + Create Give your resource…

Setting up a public website using azure blob storage can be easy with the following steps. what is azure blob account? An Azure Blob Storage account is just a cloud space from Microsoft where you can store files of any type—like documents, pictures, or videos—so you can access them anytime, anywhere. with the following steps we will create a public website using azure blob storage . step 1 on azu…

Legacy enterprise systems are still based on code decades old. It works fine…until you need to connect to a cloud platform, introduce real-time analytics, or build generative-AI copilots. And then the once-reliable technology stack becomes the limiting factor. This article is for the CEO, CTO, and IT leaders who are at that point and in the market for legacy enterprise system modernization firms.…

We Cut Compliance Costs by 40% Using Pulumi 3.140 and Chef 18 for Multi-Cloud AWS and GCP Modern multi-cloud environments offer unmatched flexibility, but they also introduce complex compliance challenges. For our team managing hybrid infrastructure across AWS and GCP, manual policy enforcement and fragmented tooling were driving up compliance costs by 22% year-over-year. By integrating Pulumi 3.…

ZopNight v2.0: The Control Layer Your Cloud Bill Has Been Missing We've been watching cloud bills grow for years. Dashboards got prettier. Alerts got louder. The bills kept climbing. ZopNight v2.0 is our answer to why: the problem was never visibility. It was control. This release ships the full four-layer stack we believe every multi-cloud team needs: discovery with 14-day metrics, policy that b…

What if your Kubernetes cluster simply refused to run unsigned images? I spent some time experimenting with enforcing image provenance in a small Kubernetes setup using MicroK8s. The idea was simple: Only container images with valid cryptographic signatures are allowed to run in the cluster. For this I used: GitLab CI/CD (build + signing pipeline) Cosign / Sigstore (image signing) Kyverno (admiss…

The Kubernetes community's announcement of Ingress NGINX's retirement in March 2026 has created an urgent need for migration planning across thousands of production clusters. With no security patches, bug fixes, or updates coming after the final v1.15.1 release, organizations must act now to avoid running unmaintained software with escalating security risks. This isn't just about swapping one ing…

DynamoDB Global Tables replicate data across regions in seconds, but replication is still asynchronous. That means a simple read from a replica region can occasionally return stale data, which is acceptable in most application as the user doesn’t require the latest available data all the time, but in some systems, stale reads can break important processes and stability of a platform. So the quest…

Kubernetes and AI have become unlikely bedfellows—and the numbers prove it. New data from CNCF and SlashData reveals that two-thirds of organizations running generative AI models have standardized on Kubernetes for orchestration. But here's the thing: it's not because Kubernetes magically solves AI problems. It's because the engineering fundamentals that make Kubernetes valuable—standardization, …

A website today has two layers that work completely independently of each other. The AI-Ready layer is universal. It makes your site readable for ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Bing Copilot, no matter where the bot comes from. The hosting layer is regional. It decides who gets to touch your data, how fast the site loads for your customers, and which legal jurisdiction your business sits in. We b…

I built Clever Deploy because every time I wanted to ship a small side project, the deploy story turned into a project of its own. The two problems I kept hitting 1. Surprise bills. I'd push a side project to a "free tier" platform, forget about it, and three months later get a $40 invoice because something I didn't fully understand auto-scaled, or a build ran 200 times, or bandwidth crossed a li…

If you inherited an OpenSearch deployment and you're now being asked to run agents on it, Q1 2026 has been unusually good news. OpenSearch 3.5 (February) and 3.6 (April) aren't incremental search improvements — they're a clear declaration of intent. "OpenSearch isn't trying to be a better Elasticsearch; it is focused on being the data layer on which AI applications are built." That's from the art…
