The race for Artificial Intelligence is usually explained through names such as NVIDIA, TSMC, Microsoft, Google and Amazon. Some design accelerators, others manufacture them, while the major cloud providers install thousands of them in data centres. Yet all this computing capacity depends on an earlier and far less visible technology: the machines capable of transferring
The new BP/36 guide from Spain’s CCN-CERT, published in June 2026, gives a name to a reality that many security teams were already noticing: the traditional model of one-off audits, annual penetration tests and patching cycles planned weeks in advance is falling short against attackers that use Artificial Intelligence to accelerate reconnaissance, exploitation, social engineering
Linux has been associated with performance, stability and scalability for decades. It makes sense. A large part of the Internet, cloud infrastructure, supercomputing, telecommunications, embedded systems and enterprise IT runs on Linux or on technologies closely connected to its ecosystem. But that explanation is starting to fall short. Linux remains a solid technical foundation, but
For years, many virtualization decisions were made almost by inertia. However, the current landscape has pushed many companies to revisit something that once seemed settled: whether it still makes sense to stay on the same platform or whether the time has come to explore alternatives that offer more technical control, less vendor dependence, and a
For more than three decades, the Linux kernel has grown with a comfortable paradox: a massive project maintained by hundreds of people worldwide, yet with a final, centralised step that has effectively passed through the hands of a near-single figure. Linus Torvalds didn’t just write the first lines of code; since 1991, he has also
For years, Proxmox Virtual Environment (Proxmox VE) lived in a kind of “in-between land”: too powerful to be dismissed as a lab tool, yet still lacking the commercial gravity of the biggest names in virtualization. In 2025, that balance has broken. This open-source platform has solidified as a real — and in many cases preferred
The Proxmox ecosystem has just taken an important step forward with the release of Proxmox Datacenter Manager 1.0, the first stable version of its centralized management platform. The tool is designed to solve a very specific problem: how to operate, monitor, and scale dozens of Proxmox VE nodes and clusters and Proxmox Backup Server instances
At Stackscale we work with VMware vSphere and Proxmox VE every day. Our approach isn’t to “force” a tool, but to fit the platform to the project’s requirements (technical, operational, and business). Below is a practical analysis—aligned with Stackscale’s editorial style—of when each technology makes sense and how that translates into operations, cost, and risk.
The New European Framework Redefining Digital Security The rise in cyberattacks across Europe is a growing concern. In 2023, companies experienced an average of 1,557 cyberattacks per week, marking an 86% increase from the previous year. The increasing interconnectivity between IT and OT infrastructures has expanded the attack surface for cybercriminals, who are now leveraging
The Linux Foundation, through LF Energy, has released SEAPATH 1.0, an open-source hypervisor designed for the virtualization of digital power substations under the IEC 61850 standard. This solution marks a significant advancement in modernizing the energy sector, providing a secure, scalable, and high-performance environment for managing power grids. The increasing decentralization of power generation and
