Oracle AI Database@AWS Expands to 22 Regions

Oracle AI Database@AWS Expands to 22 Regions

Enterprises are seeking more control over where their cloud data is stored to address latency, internal governance policies, and jurisdiction-specific requirements. Oracle is responding by expanding the regional availability of its database services on AWS. Oracle has partnered with AWS to expand Exadata Database Service on Exascale Infrastructure (ExaDB-XS) to 22 regions across Asia Pacific, Europe and the Americas. The partnership will enable Oracle customers to migrate their data to AWS cloud with more location flexibility and wider access to a wealth of cloud tools like analytics, generative AI, and AWS IAM. Greater availability at a lower cost One potential benefit is Exascale Infrastructure’s pay-per-use model, which lets customers select the compute and storage capacity they need without provisioning dedicated database and storage servers. Oracle says this can make Exadata practical for smaller and variable workloads. For reference, to host the Exdata infrastructure on-premise, an enterprise buyer would require a minimum monthly subscription of $4,540.00 with a 4-year commitment. This cost excludes licensing fees and other additional costs. With the ExaDB-XS platform, customers can choose …

Open Secure AI Alliance Expands at Black Hat: What You Should Know

Open Secure AI Alliance Expands at Black Hat: What You Should Know

The Open Secure AI Alliance expands at Black Hat with SAFE guidelines and open frameworks, offering IT leaders inspectable tools, lower token costs, and a clear roadmap for secure enterprise AI. Technologies scale much faster when they are open and interoperable. This has been true for networking, VoIP, mobile, and almost every other technology shift over the past few decades. The Open Secure AI Alliance is a significant step toward making AI defense open, inspectable, and enterprise-ready, and it arrives at a moment when IT teams are trying to turn pilot projects into production value. Why an open AI defense stack matters Open source has long been the backbone of modern infrastructure, spanning cloud and compute platforms, and cybersecurity is among its biggest beneficiaries. The Open Secure AI Alliance (OSAA) applies that same model to AI security by committing to shared open models, agent harnesses, tools, and data that defenders can study, extend, and run on their own infrastructure. The core argument behind OSAA is that if the next generation of cyberattacks is AI-powered, the …

Heat dome expands across the central United States, creating dangerous conditions for millions

WASHINGTON — Dangerously hot weather will expand across much of the central United States this weekend and into next week, pushing temperatures above 100 degrees Fahrenheit from Dallas to North Dakota with roughly 70 million people facing heat advisories. Heat dome expands across the central United States, creating dangerous conditions for millions A heat dome, where atmospheric conditions trap heat, will create sustained high temperatures and accumulating discomfort. Overnight low temperatures aren’t expected to come down enough for people to have much chance to recover, allowing heat stress to build as the bad weather lingers, forecasters said. The high humidity will make it feel even worse. A huge stretch of the country will endure the oppressive midsummer weather. It will stretch from the desert Southwest to the Gulf Coast, reaching up into the Midwest and Great Plains. Some records around the Denver area may be broken, forecasters said. Temperatures are expected to be 10 F to 15 F above what’s normal. “It looks like it is going to be pretty much stationary in that position …

US-Iran war live updates: US expands Iran attacks as Trump warns Tehran and Houthis over Red Sea strikes | World News

Black smoke rises following explosions near a military base hosting U.S. forces in the northern Iraqi city of Irbil. (Photo: AP) The Iran-Israel-US conflict deepened this week, with fighting spreading across multiple fronts even as diplomatic channels stayed open. US President Trump indicated that back-channel talks with Tehran are ongoing and suggested the large-scale strike he’d floated days earlier might not be necessary, though he’s also weighed a bigger escalation with his Cabinet if talks stall. Regional Flashpoints: In the occupied West Bank, Israeli forces launched counterterrorism raids and imposed a curfew after clashes left four Palestinians and two Israeli soldiers dead. Meanwhile, Bahrain and Kuwait reported fresh Iranian drone and missile attacks, Iran claimed it struck the Al-Azraq US airbase in Jordan, and Oman is mediating talks with Tehran over shipping safety in the Strait of Hormuz. Saudi Arabia said it struck Houthi sites in Yemen after the Iran-backed group’s forces hit Saudi tankers in the Red Sea, sending Brent crude above $100 a barrel.

Ram Temple donation irregularities: SIT gets 15-day extension as probe expands

Ram Temple donation irregularities: SIT gets 15-day extension as probe expands

The Uttar Pradesh government has granted a 15-day extension until July 15 to the three-member Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing alleged irregularities in the Ram Temple donation collections. Officials said investigators have additional time to expand the probe beyond the eight arrested accused and determine whether systemic failures, procedural violations and institutional negligence enabled the alleged embezzlement. The government has directed the SIT to submit its report by July 15. Chief minister Yogi Adityanath approved the extension after the SIT sought more time to complete a comprehensive investigation before submitting its final report. “The government directed the team to submit its report by July 15,” an official said. Lucknow divisional commissioner Vijay Vishwas Pant, inspector general (Lucknow Range) Kiran S, and special secretary (finance) Neel Ratan, the three members of the SIT, are expected to return to Ayodhya to examine how cash offerings moved from donation boxes to bank deposits and fix accountability at every stage. The SIT has shifted focus to the institutional framework that governed the handling of donations after the arrest of …
