Introduction: Overcoming GPU Management Challenges   In Part 1 of this blog series, we explored the challenges of hosting large language models (LLMs) on CPU-based workloads within an EKS cluster. We discussed the inefficiencies associated with using CPUs for such tasks, primarily due to the large model sizes and slower inference speeds. The introduction of GPU resources offered a significant performance boost, but it also brought about the need for efficient management of these high-cost resources. …

Degioanni noted that cloud networking, especially in Kubernetes environments, can be very complex with various approaches like service mesh, ingress, and gateways. Stratoshark is designed to be agnostic to the specific cloud networking approach, focusing on collecting data at the endpoint level rather than relying on the networking layer. One particular issue that Combs said is common in Kubernetes is the CrashLoopBackOff issue that can be difficult to diagnose and resolve. Combs said that Stratoshark provides…

Like past January Unpacked events, Samsung released three new Galaxy S models, with the base models getting some subtle but meaningful upgrades, including a thinner and lighter design.  Other changes include the introduction of new colors, including Icyblue, Navy, Mint, Silver Shadow, as well as online-only exclusive colors like Blueblack, Coralred, and Pinkgold.

Adam Breeden/ZDNET Did you know that a modern TV uses significantly less energy than a TV that’s a decade old? Maybe that shouldn’t be a surprise, considering how much more power-efficient today’s display panels are. According to Perch Energy, the average power consumption of an old TV runs around $54 per year in energy costs. Because LED-backlit TVs and OLEDs consume less power than traditional LCD screens, newer models cost about $32 annually.  Also: This futuristic…

That’s why it’s important to clear all that…

Kerry Wan/ZDNET I’ve been a Google Pixel fan since the beginning. I pre-ordered the original Pixel XL phone in 2016 and have upgraded every other year or so since, eventually owning the Pixel 3 XL, Pixel 6 Pro, and Pixel 8 Pro. I even picked up a Pixel Watch and Pixel Buds along the way.  Also: Everything announced at Samsung Unpacked 2025: Galaxy S25, Gemini AI, more But for the first time, I’m awfully tempted to…

As implied by the inclusion of “personal” in the title, this is the most similar feature to the overarching principle of Apple Intelligence. Samsung’s Personal Data Engine functions as a personal LLM that learns from you with your everyday device usage, ultimately creating an assistant that can anticipate your needs using the context of your phone activity.  Also: Every Samsung Galaxy S25 model compared: Which phone should you buy? Essentially, the Personal Data Engine learns what…
