It's safe to say #quantumcomputing is hard. That's why IBM has expanded its latest quantum road map to include a holistic view of scale, quality, and speed - shifting from an era of DISCOVERY to an era of UTILITY...
IBM's newly launched road map offers:
IBM launched its IBM Quantum System Two as well as its next-generation quantum processor as the company touts what's possible today with quantum computing.
At the company's IBM Quantum Summit in New York, Big Blue launched IBM Quantum Heron, a 133-qubit processor that's designed to deliver performance and low error rates relative to its predecessor.
MongoDB announced the general availability of MongoDB Atlas Vector Search and MongoDB Atlas Search Nodes in the latest in a series of announcements to enable developers to more easily build generative AI applications.
The general availability of MongoDB Atlas Vector Search and Atlas Search Nodes follows up from a June launch where the company set out to enable AI and large language model (LLM) workloads.
DisrupTV Episode 344: Transforming Leadership, Culture & Inclusion at Work
In DisrupTV Episode 344, hosts R “Ray” Wang and Vala Afshar engage in a dynamic conversation with four distinguished experts who delve into the evolving landscape of leadership, organizational culture, and inclusion:
UiPath is gaining momentum as high profile partnerships, AI and automation and a focus on large enterprises and industries pay off.
The automation platform company reported better-than-expected third quarter sales of $326 million, up 24% from a year ago, and annual recurring revenue of $1.38 billion. UiPath reported a net loss in the third quarter of $31.54 million, or 6 cents a share. Non-GAAP earnings in the quarter were 12 cents a share.
Itâs a wrap at AWS Re:Invent, but hereâs my take on two more data-and-analytics-related announcements from Las Vegas: Amazon Q in Redshift and Amazon Q in AWS Glue.
Amazon Q Recap
Dell Technologies' infrastructure unit saw strength in AI-optimized servers, but revenue in the third quarter for the data center group was down 12% from a year ago.
The results highlight the moving parts for data center vendors. AI-optimized gear is selling well as traditional storage and server systems lag. HPE saw similar issues in its quarter.
"Cost awareness is a lost art. We need to regain that art," said Amazon CTO Dr. Werner Vogels, speaking at Amazon Web Services' re:Invent conference. AWS also launched a new tool to manage application resources within the AWS Management Console as well as CloudWatch Application Signals to automatically instrument applications.

ServiceNow applications will be available on Amazon Web Services Marketplace as part of a five-year strategic collaboration agreement between the two companies. ServiceNow and AWS will also co-develop AI business applications focused on industries.
AWS re:Invent is an overwhelming barrage of features, services and launches that fly by so fast you can miss a lot of things that could drive real business value.
To that end, here are a some of the announcements that team Constellation Research thought were interesting even if they didn't get all the attention that Amazon Q, SageMaker, Graviton, Trainium and Inferentia get. These items were dropped by AWS CEO Adam Selipsky in passing while others hit the wires ahead of the lead keynote.
Among the more than 200 announcements slated for #AWSreinvent 2023, new Zero-ETL integrations with Amazon Redsift and AI Recommendations for Amazon DataZone were two data-related announcements that caught my eye. Both were announced by Amazon Web Services CEO Adam Selipsky during his November 28 keynote address.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise saw strong intelligent edge and high-performance computing and AI revenue growth in the fourth quarter, but its legacy compute and storage businesses struggled.
Workday reported better-than-expected third quarter earnings and raised its outlook for the fiscal year.
The cloud HR and finance application company reported third quarter earnings of 43 cents a share on revenue of $1.87 billion, up 16.7% from a year ago. Subscription revenue for the quarter was up 18.1% from a year ago. Non-GAAP earnings were $1.53 a share.
Amazon Web Services made the case at re:Invent that it should be your complete AI stack with Amazon Q, a horizontal generative AI tool that will be embedded throughout AWS and backed up with Amazon Bedrock and infrastructure for model training and inference powered by Trainium and Inferentia processors.
Amazon Web Services launched Graviton4, its custom chip for multiple workloads, with big improvements over last year's Graviton3. AWS also launched the latest versions of its Trainium and Inferentia processors, two GPUs that may be able to bring the price of model training down.
The takeaway: AWS plans to push its custom silicon cadence to gain more workloads even as it partners with big guns such as Nvidia, Intel and AMD.
Monday night, Nov. 27, at Re:Invent 2023, AWSâ Peter DeSantis, SVP of Utility Computing, announced two important database features: Amazon Aurora Limitless Database and Redshift Serverless AI Optimizations. Here's my analysis.
Alianza and Amazon Web Services (AWS) signed a multi-year partnership to enable traditional communication service providers to deliver and monetize voice and cloud communications services.
Amazon Web Services launched Amazon One Enterprise, a palm-based identity service that aims to make palm-reading a mainstream way to enter buildings, improve security and verify credentials.
AWS said Amazon One Enterprise is being used by Boon Edam, IHG Hotels and Resorts, Paznic, and KONE. The service is in preview in the US and pricing wasn't immediately available. Amazon One Enterprise's FAQ is worth checking out for various details on enrollment, security and device setup.
