Three paths, forty hours at the deep end, and a curriculum list specific enough to tell you what Broadcom thinks a hardened VCF estate looks like. Useful even if you never sit the exam.

A four-stage security framework with a scored assessment underneath it. The interesting part isn't the programme, it's the five pillars it scores you against, and the fact that one of them is people.

The open networking strategy stops being an announcement and becomes an interoperability story. For anyone running NSX beside an existing Cisco fabric, this is the direction that decides your next design.

Two B200 nodes, one liquid-cooled and one air-cooled, 3.2 Tb/s of GPU fabric per node, and a four-host EPYC management domain. This is what the AI Factory announcement looks like when somebody actually builds it.

Explore 2026 wrapped in Las Vegas with 4,700 attendees, and the 2027 event moves to spring. What that changes for anyone planning around it.

Six thousand AI-generated patches were tested. A quarter of them fixed the vulnerability without breaking the application. The statistic is the easy part.

The hard part of enterprise AI was never the model. It's letting an agent use enterprise data without giving it access to enterprise data. Tanzu's answer is governed data products published to a marketplace. GA is Fall 2026.

An autonomous agent doesn't fit the user model or the service account model. Broadcom's answer gives agents identities, missions and runtime policy, and routes every action through a gateway that checks intent before execution.

Three announcements covering the platform, the automation underneath it, and the models that run on it. Here's the technical read and the questions I'd want answered before any of it lands in a design.

Four days at the Venetian, and I'm following it from the wrong timezone. Here's the shortlist, and why the announcements from last week already tell you where the platform is going.

Half of enterprise AI workloads already run on-premises or in private cloud. Nearly a third of organisations have repatriated a quarter or more of their workloads in the past year. If you're trying to fund a self-service platform, these are the numbers to put in front

Auto-renewal in VCF 9.1 fires 60 days before expiry, which sounds like plenty of margin until you find out you can't switch it on for a certificate that's already inside that window. Here's how the renewal model actually works and what to
