Xilinx announced the Versal adaptive compute acceleration platform in September 2019 and said it will be generally available in Q4.

Awake Security displaced Cisco; Ericsson beat out 5G rivals; and Viptela CEO launched multi-cloud startup Alkira.

The deal will see Nuage pair its SD-WAN 2.0 offering with Asavie’s SD Edge platform announced last week.

The U.K. government is requiring operators to limit the use of Huawei equipment in the core of 5G networks due to security concerns.

Earlier this year Awake partnered with Google Cloud, which extended its network traffic analysis across all three major cloud providers.

Founded by former Viptela CEO Amir Khan and his brother Atif Khan, Alkira Cloud Services Exchange aims to eliminate the complexity of multi-cloud deployments.

Capex spending on 5G network deployments will decline 10% globally this year, but those activities will pick up next year, according to ABI Research.

Cisco paved Rakuten's virtual roaming road; VMware bolstered its hybrid cloud with Kubernetes products; and ARM joined the O-RAN alliance.

VMware continues to lead the worldwide SD-WAN market by revenue, followed by Cisco and Fortinet, according to Omdia.

Joining the alliance will speed Arm's mission to develop open, interoperable, and cloud-native infrastructure for 5G networks, said Arm's Panch Chandrasekaran.

That road uses a signaling interface to allow 4G LTE customers to continue data sessions between Rakuten and KDDI's networks.

The Business Resiliency Program aims to provide organizations economically impacted by the pandemic with the tools and equipment they need to keep their businesses running.

VMware patched a critical bug; Ericsson scored a 5G win with Nex-Tech Wireless deal; and Altiostar's CEO shared his confidence in Open RAN to upend mobile networks.

The Kansas-based operator plans to launch its 5G service before July.

The vulnerability could allow a hacker to “extract highly sensitive information which could be used to compromise vCenter Server or other services,” the security advisory said.

Palo Alto paid $420M for CloudGenix; Microsoft acquired Affirmed; AWS pledged $20 million to COVID-19 testing; plus the latest VC/M&A news from March.

“In the next three years economic forces will drive operators to go to open RAN," said Altiostar CEO Ashraf Dahod.

Spending on AI is poised to jump, particularly among enterprises that are deploying the technology in the cloud to accelerate efforts around automation and agility, according to a new

Cisco swiped back at VMware's SD-WAN claim; McAfee beefed up its SASE with browser isolation; and Cohesity topped $2.5 billion valuation.

All of the new RAN gear is running on chipsets from Nokia’s ReefShark portfolio including new CPUs and GPUs.

Cisco and VMware have been battling for SD-WAN superiority ever since the two vendors paid hundreds of millions of dollars for Viptela and VeloCloud.

The company's routers are already being used to support medical and relief workers as they attempt to contain and treat the new coronavirus.

VMware claimed SD-WAN victory over Cisco; HPE readied $2 billion COVID-19 relief for enterprises; and Cisco emphasized wireless-first future.

The agreement pairs Lanner's universal CPE hardware with nacXwan’s SD-WAN software stack to provide service providers an affordable, easy-to-deploy SD-WAN platform.
