Back in May OpenCL 3.1 was announced with a focus on AI and HPC workloads. Just over two months later, this incremental update over OpenCL 3.0 now has its first listed conformant OpenCL 3.1 implementation for passing the OpenCL 3.1 conformance test suite cases. It's Apple Silicon M1/M2 graphics running on Asahi Linux with the Mesa Rusticl driver...

While many organizations have recently adopted a cloud-first strategy, a significant number of those have since pivoted to operating in an open hybrid cloud environment. For insurance organizations, adopting a hybrid cloud strategy was largely because moving all operational data to the public cloud environments was impossible due to strict regulatory requirements and legal data privacy concerns.Insurers hold a vast amount of proprietary, personally identifiable data. In addition to basic financial data, insurers need to have sensitive information about policyholders so they can accurately ass

Red Hat AI 3.4 is officially available. While it is packed with incredible engineering milestones, business leaders care less about the underlying code and more about one critical question: How does this platform help scale the business?For organizations currently struggling to push AI past the proof-of-concept (PoC) stage and into fully operational, revenue-driving production environments, this update addresses those exact challenges. A recently commissioned Forrester Consulting Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study highlighted that Red Hat AI delivered an impressive 233% ROI by drastically dr

Edge computing environments present distinct hurdles as companies move processing capabilities nearer to where data is generated. Customers across industries, especially in retail, industrial, and telecommunications sectors, are increasingly demanding high availability for their edge deployments.However, achieving high availability traditionally requires a three-node cluster to establish a reliable quorum. The primary factor driving organizations toward alternative topologies for large-scale edge deployments is the prohibitive cost of powering, maintaining, and deploying a third node across hu

Every company that depends on physical operations is dealing with the same set of problems today. The infrastructure that was built years ago demands changes faster than operations teams can adapt. Repetitive tasks done by humans at high speed produce errors. The system wasn't designed to be monitored at scale. On top of all that, competitive pressure keeps growing, regulatory requirements are increasingly strict, and many organizations are locked into rigid automation systems that can't evolve with their needs.These are structural problems, and incremental improvements within the current mode

In many cases, using agentic AI for incident response automation means sending infrastructure logs to frontier AI models. Every job failure log (complete with hostnames, IP addresses, and system topology) would leave infrastructure the moment it hit a large language model (LLM) endpoint, which would raise huge red flags for compliance teams in heavily regulated industries like financial services and healthcare.As an alternative, these organizations could use open source models hosted on their own infrastructure, addressing data residency and compliance problems. But are open source AI models g
