Bridging the Gap Between Provisioning and Customer Experience

Bridging the Gap Between Provisioning and Customer Experience

Working closely with customers who develop and deploy network automation, I’ve often heard the question: “Is the configured network service actually delivered according to customer expectations?” This is not just theoretical; it reflects a real-world challenge many service providers face.

China’s rare earth export controls threaten enterprise IT hardware supply chains

China’s rare earth export controls threaten enterprise IT hardware supply chains

“AI-first infrastructure rollouts — particularly those involving GPUs, edge accelerators, and high-efficiency cooling — are directly in the crosshairs,” Gogia noted. “So are quantum computing R&D efforts and high-reliability storage systems where thermal and magnetic materials matter.” China, responsible for 70% of global rare earth mining output and 87% of refined supply, poses a serious threat to enterprise IT hardware supply chains with these restrictions — especially for companies with AI-optimized server lines. AI chip…
