Rackspace & AMD: Delivering Powerful, Cost-Effective AI Infrastructure Options for the Enterprise As enterprises continue to scale their AI initiatives, the cost of GPU acceleration can become a major roadblock—often threatening the very ROI that drives AI adoption in the first place. That’s why I see today’s announcement from Rackspace Technology and AMD as a pivotal move for the industry. By embedding high-performance AMD Instinct™ GPUs and EPYC™ CPUs into a managed, governed enterprise AI cloud, Rackspace is offering a compelling alternative to the status quo. Enterprises now have a credible, cost-effective, and powerful option—designed to meet the stringent requirements of security, sovereignty, and compliance—without the unpredictable overhead of traditional GPU rental models. This partnership is more than just a technology refresh; it’s a smart way to realign value for organizations navigating the reality of increasing AI workloads and spiraling infrastructure bills. Processor innovators like AMD deserve serious consideration, and solutions like this are exactly what the market needs as AI transitions from experimentation to production. You won’t win the AI wars by simply throwing more money at the problem—you win by delivering real value. Congratulations to Rackspace and AMD for raising the bar and giving the industry actionable choices. #AIInfrastructure #EnterpriseAI #CostOptimization #Rackspace #AMD #AIEfficiency #CloudComputing #DigitalTransformation rackspace.com/newsroom/racks…

Are your backups ready to stand up to modern threats? With ransomware and cyberattacks increasingly targeting not just production data, but also backups and recovery systems, resilience is no longer optional—it’s mission critical. That’s why I recently joined Rackspace Technology’s own Melissa Pettigrew and Madhavi Rajan for a deep-dive, practical webinar on building cyber resilience that actually works when the worst happens. This session is now available ON DEMAND. We share a proven blueprint for: -Building immutable, tamper-proof backups (WORM) that can’t be altered or encrypted -Designing effective air gaps—when to use physical vs. logical, and how to balance speed with true isolation -Deploying analytics-driven threat detection across every backup snapshot -Standing up an isolated recovery environment (IRE) so you can run critical business functions—even when your entire production and DR environments are down Integrating recovery with your SOC, SIEM, and ServiceNow for truly rapid, automated response If you’re responsible for protecting your organization’s data and reputation, you’ll want to see these real-world strategies and runbooks in action. We cover practical steps for reducing risk, shortening recovery times, and even lowering cyber insurance premiums—all grounded in current threat realities. 🟢 Watch the replay now, and equip your team with the tools to restore with confidence when it matters most. #CyberResilience #Ransomware #Backup #DisasterRecovery #CyberSecurity #Rackspace #Rubrik #Immutability #ThreatDetection #DavidLinthicum #CyberSecurity #Rackspace #DataRecovery #Immutability #AirGap #ThreatDetection #CloudSolutions rackspace.com/lp/private-clo…
