Sovereign AI: Secure Cloud Collaboration with Red Hat and Duality

We are moving from "renting" AI (risky) to "owning" it (private). But how do you scale Sovereign AI without compromising security? This latest piece from Red Hat and Duality Technologies highlights a massive shift in the industry: the rise of Confidential Computing. It’s the "missing link" that allows organizations to collaborate on sensitive datasets without ever exposing the raw data or AI models to the underlying infrastructure. Why is this important? We can finally achieve "trust-by-design." By using hardware-attested Trusted Execution Environments, you're not just hoping your cloud provider is secure—you are guaranteeing it through architecture. Is "Sovereignty" a priority for your 2026 AI roadmap, or are you still in the experimentation phase? #SovereignAI #ConfidentialComputing #DigitalSovereignty #RedHat #EnterpriseAI

#MicrosoftAzure drives operational efficiency for the right workloads. The global distribution of AI makes the networking interdependencies hard to ignore. When performance, availability, or latency breaks down, it’s usually a network issue—not an application one. This blog walks through what network modernization looks like in a distributed AI world and how organizations are approaching it: https://eqix.it/48zdtbp Find me at #ITW2026 next week to explore how we can drive the right foundation for your cloud and AI strategies. #ConnectingCloudsEverywhereandAcceleratingAIAnywhere

☁️ Twenty years ago, cloud promised freedom. Today, it raises a different question: ❓ Who controls the infrastructure your organisation depends on? As AWS celebrates its recent 20th anniversary, cloud computing finds itself at a fascinating crossroads. The conversation has moved well beyond scalability, agility and cost savings. 🤖 AI is driving unprecedented demand for compute. 🌍 Governments are increasingly focused on digital sovereignty. 🔒 Regulators are scrutinising data residency, jurisdiction and control. ⚖️ Boards are weighing innovation against resilience and concentration risk. Recent developments in Europe, alongside similar discussions in Canada and elsewhere, suggest that cloud is no longer viewed solely as a technology platform. Increasingly, it is being treated as strategic infrastructure. In our latest article, Cloud at 20: The New Battle for Digital Sovereignty, we explore how the cloud market has evolved over the past two decades and why the next era may be defined less by scale, and more by sovereignty, resilience and choice. Will digital sovereignty become one of the defining cloud challenges of the next decade? https://lnkd.in/eXvR2V_t #CloudComputing #DigitalSovereignty #CloudStrategy #CIO #CTO #AI #HybridCloud #TechnologyLeadership #DigitalTransformation

If 83% of your data lives on-prem, why send your AI workloads to the cloud? With reasoning workloads skyrocketing by 320x, routing everything through the cloud creates massive latency and cost bottlenecks for enterprises. The most sustainable approach is bringing AI directly to where your data already lives — and Dell Technologies is building the exact infrastructure to make that seamless. Check out this great breakdown from Jeff Clarke on how we are helping organizations bring AI agents safely on-prem: 👇 #DellTechWorld #AgenticAI #EnterpriseInfrastructure #DataGravity #OnPremAI #DellTechnologies #IWork4Dell

Intelligence at scale demands infrastructure equal to the ambition behind it. We architect the core: sovereign cloud foundations, AI systems built for enterprise demands, and the engineering precision that turns acceleration into impact. #ProgressContinues

Sovereign cloud reshapes enterprise AI deployment strategies Enterprises are evolving their cloud strategies toward hybrid and sovereign models to meet the demands of AI workloads and regulatory challenges. This shift enables localized infrastructure, enhancing operational efficiency while maintaining compliance. Organizations are keen to deliver cloud-like experiences on-premises, revolutionizing how data is processed, particularly at the edge for real-time performance.... - https://lnkd.in/gZPFW-yK

We are excited to expand our collaboration with Cirrascale Cloud Services to bring the power of Gemini models to the Cirrascale Inference Platform via Google Distributed Cloud. For organizations in healthcare, finance, and the public sector, the choice between cutting-edge AI and strict data sovereignty is no longer a trade-off. By running Gemini on GDC within Cirrascale’s data centers, customers can now: - Run multimodal AI behind your own firewall or in air-gapped environments. - Leverage purpose-built infrastructure optimized for low-latency inference. - Keep the compute where the data lives to meet residency and compliance mandates. As Muninder Sambi, our VP of Product Management for GDC, noted: We are helping customers unlock the power of Gemini wherever their data resides.
