Microsoft generated $24.1 billion in AI revenue through OpenAI in the fiscal year ending in June. That's about 70 percent of its total AI business, according to a Bloomberg analysis. The heavy reliance helps explain why a company long known for vendor lock-in has recently been championing open-weight models and pushing back against proprietary isolation. The article Microsoft's AI revenue reportedly depends on OpenAI for 70 percent appeared first on The Decoder .

Cisco has rolled out updates to address multiple critical security vulnerabilities impacting Catalyst SD-WAN and IOS XE Software as part of a comprehensive internal security review. The security issues affect Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Software, regardless of device configuration, and Cisco IOS XE Software when it is running in autonomous or controller mode. "These vulnerabilities were found

You wouldn't let Claude Code cat your AWS credentials or Kubernetes config on request, would you?

Learn about new capabilities in Amazon Bedrock AgentCore: temporal policies powered by Dogwood, a new open source policy language for AI agents, and rate limiting on the gateway. These features give you deterministic control over sequences of agent actions and cost ceilings that hold regardless of agent behavior.

Composio tested Deepseek V4 Flash across four agent frameworks on 30 real-world tasks. Success rates were mostly similar, but costs varied by nearly 3x: OpenCode came in cheapest at $0.073 per task, while Claude Code cost $0.195 despite using the fewest tool calls and output tokens. The choice of framework is mainly a question of price and speed. The article Claude Code is the fastest agent framework but costs nearly three times more than the cheapest rival appeared first on The Decoder .

As engineering teams adopt coding agents like Codex, leaders need visibility into adoption, consumption, and reliability. This post shows how to route Codex OpenTelemetry metrics through a local collector to Amazon CloudWatch for an AWS native view of usage by user, team, and cost center.

Its WeatherNext model, which will be open-sourced, can accurately predict a storm’s track and intensity using lower-resolution weather data. Researchers don’t yet fully understand how it does this.

A regulated customer needed all Claude Code inference processed in a single AWS Region (London), not just in-geography. This post shows two ways to pin Claude Code on Amazon Bedrock to one Region: an application inference profile or the Mantle endpoint, paired with an IAM Region condition, plus how to verify compliance in AWS CloudTrail.

Learn how to run the full Amazon Bedrock Automated Reasoning policy lifecycle from your coding agent. A suite of open source Agent Skills builds, reviews, tests, debugs, deploys, and validates a custom policy end to end, turning a specialized console task into a repeatable engineering workflow.

Alibaba released Qwen 3.8-Max this week and marketed the preview as second only to Claude Fable 5 (their launch-day table was more equivocal: the model leads on one of 12 coding-agent rows). But an independent harness came close to the opposite conclusion: a benchmark run , apparently using the Preview version, put Qwen 3.8-Max's best effort setting mid-pack, and its default setting last. Both results are real and defensible. The gap between them is about token and time budgets, and that matters

PDI Technologies built PDI Brew, an agentic platform on AWS where non-technical employees describe a tool in plain English and receive a fully provisioned, multi-tenant web application in seconds. See how a pluggable planner and an AWS Lambda provisioning agent turn plain-English intent into governed, multi-tenant apps backed by Amazon Bedrock.

Presented by JumpCloud A practical framework for securing every identity in the modern workforce, human or not. Your organization already has a rigorous process for governing human identities. New employees go through onboarding. They get a role, a set of entitlements, and a named manager accountable for their access. When they leave, their credentials are revoked and access is terminated. It’s a well known IT process: every workforce identity that can access your systems needs to be known, scop

Apparently, opening the thing is now enough. A repo can run before the first prompt, a package can hide among hundreds, and a harmless-looking PDF can finish the job. This week runs on cheap leverage: exposed servers, recycled bugs, poisoned agent instructions, remote-access tools dressed as support software, and trusted defaults doing attackers a favor. Nothing here is especially mystical.

Today we're launching a developer preview of WebMCP on Cloudflare. With one switch, any site becomes usable by browser AI agents — no new APIs, no origin changes — while the human stays in control and creators keep their traffic.

AI Search makes search easier than ever, with no Cloudflare primitives to stitch together. Point it at your data to create a search for your own files and websites. We're also sharing a preview of our new pricing model.

More than half of requests now come from machines, not people. Agent Readiness shows how well agents can discover and read your site, while Answer Engine Optimization tracks how often AI assistants recommend you.

Agents are a new kind of visitor. They don't render CSS or click ads, but they have a paying human on the other end. Block them and you block your customer. We're building the open tools and protocols so publishers and agents can cooperate and not collide.
