Virtualization is one of the foundational technologies behind modern cloud computing. Whether you're deploying applications on-prem, running OpenStack, or launching VMs in the cloud, virtualization re...

This project started as a personal research question. After my medical incident, I became curious about something many passengers never think about: what altitude is my body actually experiencing up t...

11 new Prowler checks bring the first CSPM posture coverage to AWS Nitro Enclaves — from KMS attestation policies to detecting enclaves left in debug mode, without ever touching the instance.

Lately, it feels like earthquakes have been appearing in the news more often than usual. With all the news on media it brought me back to one of the things that has fascinated (or traumatized) me sinc...

The recent Mw 7.5 earthquake in Venezuela is a reminder that we still can't predict earthquakes.

Lately I’ve been reading a lot of people complaining about EU Sovereignty Clouds and hyperscalers deploying “sovereign regions” in Europe. The latest announcements from the European Commission seem to...

After sharing a short post with the ZeroLeaks report, I started getting few DMs about OpenClaw and the risks of deploying it. Most questions boiled down to two things: Can it run on AWS? And can it ac...

Most discussions about efficiency in our day-to-day starts in the same place: costs, performance, utilization, cloud bills. Not always in that order, but close enough.

A couple of weeks ago, Karol Piątek shared an article on sparse logarithmic attention. It stuck in my mind, and over the past few days I’ve been exploring a simple question: Is attention really sparse...

Most emulators try to pretend to be the original console well enough to get the job done. They skip the messy details, the physics and the silicon.

For over 30 years, Python developers have lived with the same frustration: no matter how many threads you spawn, only one CPU core is really doing the work. This was due to something deep within the i...

Qualcomm ruled the smartphone chip market for years with Snapdragon. But the company has been quietly evolving, from expanding its CPU design ambitions to preparing for a future in data center GPUs an...

Cloud used to be about racks and APIs. In the AI era it's about chips, memory, and networks.

More than a decade ago, when AWS was still something we debated in boardrooms, I was on the other side of the fence, helping enterprises build their own private clouds with VCE vBlocks. These were mas...

Today, cloud is almost synonymous with AWS. But in the early 2000s, things looked very different.

Some programming languages don’t just help build apps - they define entire eras of infrastructure. In the mid‑2000s, that language was Ruby, driven by Ruby on Rails, which helped accelerate the adopti...

Every headline in AI seems to orbit the same gravity well: larger models, faster tokens, and ever more powerful GPUs. From xAI’s Colossus clusters to OpenAI’s 4.

Building AI superinfrastructure isn’t just about raw scale — it’s about turning every GPU cycle into useful work. In our ongoing series on next‑gen AI infrastructure, we started with how AWS engineers...

In our last post, we explored how AWS is reinventing the way we cool superclusters, with data centers that feel closer to thermodynamic laboratories than traditional server rooms. Cooling thousands of...

In our mission to offer the best place to run applications — not just today, but in the era of trillion-parameter models — we knew the NVIDIA Blackwell launch on AWS had to be more than fast GPUs at s...

A fully automated, custom CPU and software stack for tiny embedded systems - popovicu/mrav-cpu

A few years ago, we were amazed by hyperscale cloud regions. Today, we’re witnessing the rise of hyperscale AI universes.

There was a moment in my career — at a previous company — where we seriously considered building a gaming infrastructure fabric powered entirely by AMD: CPU + Radeon GPU, fully optimized and cost-effi...

A few nights ago, I stumbled upon a project that instantly made me think of my friend Darko Mesaros. If you've ever seen his live coding sessions, you know he's the kind of person who appreciates the ...

A few years ago, Arm was mostly associated with smartphones, Raspberry Pi boards, and low-power IoT devices. Fast forward to today, and it's powering hyperscale data centers, enterprise-grade workload...
