VMware rolled out its extended detection and response strategy at VMworld, but it’s been laying the foundation for XDR for more than a year.

The service provides integrated cloud storage target for Commvault’s backup and recovery software and HyperScale X appliance managed through a single interface.

“TIP is about the process of changing the system — systemic change," TIP Executive Director Attilio Zani said.

Nvidia eyed data center dominance | VMware hunted zombies and summoned a sustainability second wave; and Supermicro mounted a 5G strategy.

Governments are projected to spend $14.7 billion globally on IoT this year, earmarking $6.7 billion or 45.6% for outdoor surveillance.

Nvidia's data processing units are based on Mellanox BlueField 2 smartNICs announced in February.

Synchronoss' CEO resigned; Nutanix CEO Dheeraj Pandey stepped down; plus the latest headcount movements from September.

“Our goal is to not just have servers, storage, and IoT, but 5G telco and provide them an open architecture using open x86 hardware,” CEO Charles Liang said.

“The low-hanging fruit has been picked,” said VMware's Victor Firoiu. “We need a second evolution in the sustainability of computation.”

HPE claimed to have the most secure server; Intel won DoD contract; and Europe’s four largest operators trumpeted open network gateways.

The work targets technical support issues at manufacturing plants that can’t be resolved by sending a technician overseas due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Intel committed to the preservation of U.S. semiconductor leadership, but the chipmaker stopped short of announcing new U.S. facilities.

Cisco bought app security startup Portshift; VMware tackled smartNICs; and McAfee pulled the IPO trigger.

Intel claims to be the leading network silicon provider and has its sights set on becoming the largest provider of base station silicon by 2021.

Cisco’s Liz Centoni said Portshift will help customers enable DevSecOps and build security constructs into cloud-native applications early in the lifecycle.

HPE’s HCI scorched Dell, Nutanix; Samsung stung Nokia with Verizon 5G deal; and Red Hat scored a 5G deal.

The security vendor has reportedly been mulling either a return to the public markets or a sale for more than a year.

VMware's CEO shared the company's top M&A targets; Arista bridged IoT and edge; and Forcepoint promised to extra SASE security.

“Sustainability is a North Star for cost reduction and innovation,” said Forrester's Abhijit Sunil during Commvault's Climate Week event.

The operator is hitting its stride on 5G network deployments amid some shifts in the Japanese telecommunications market.

Who will VMware buy next? “If I really answered that, I’d have to shoot you,” CEO Pat Gelsinger said.

VMware bolsters SASE security with SaltStack buy; AT&T disaggregated routing; and Juniper jumped on Netrounds.

The combination of Lightbits Labs’ NVMe-over-TCP with Intel products will provide an "optimized software and hardware" offering, the vendors said.

The partnership will see the companies tie Nvidia's GPU Cloud hub into VMware's vSphere, Cloud Foundation, and Tanzu platforms and leverage Nvidia SmartNICs.
