Cloud group says EU should have blocked VMware-Broadcom

In its reply to the General Court, CISPE argued in a statement that Broadcom's aim to increase EBITDA by 60 to 80 percent in three years in a market growing 5-8 percent annually could only be achieved through "aggressive monetization of VMware's locked-in customer base through steep price rises and forced bundling." It thereby created "a powerful financial incentive to extract cash rapidly from VMware's installed base," CISPE said.

Datum Raises $10M to Make Enterprise Network Infrastructure Accessible to Every Developer

Modern software companies no longer run on a single cloud; they're spread across dozens of specialized providers, from AI platforms to data warehouses to edge networks. This fragmentation creates a problem: today's developers grew up building apps in the cloud, but most lack the network engineering skills needed to securely connect all these different services together. The capabilities that tech giants spent years building - private network connections, global infrastructure, and sophisticated traffic routing - remain out of reach for smaller teams.

Since the bulk of the company's revenue comes from advertising fees tied to search, any erosion in Google's market share seemingly poses an existential threat to Alphabet's financial engine.
