Contabo has rolled out two new Dedicated Server models—DS 40 and DS 50—featuring AMD’s high-performance EPYC Turin processors. Targeting compute-intensive workloads from e-commerce to infrastructure-as-a-service, both servers run on Zen 5 architecture and are now available in Hub Europe. The move follows Contabo’s prior virtualization upgrade and reinforces its push toward energy-efficient, high-density cloud performance tailored to modern business demands.

GMI Cloud has relocated its headquarters from San Jose to Mountain View to support rapid team growth and strengthen ties with the AI startup ecosystem. The move positions the GPU infrastructure provider closer to top research institutions, helping drive innovation through events and partnerships. With a global data center footprint, the company aims to offer scalable AI compute while navigating geopolitical risks in the cloud infrastructure space.

Wix has launched its MCP Server, letting developers use natural language to build and manage business tools—from inventory to event systems—without switching IDEs. The server connects with AI models like Claude and Cursor, reducing manual coding. As AI integration surges, Wix’s move signals a deeper pivot toward developer-first workflows, while raising familiar concerns about code accuracy and long-term reliability in production.

AWS has launched its EC2 P6-B200 instances, equipping them with Nvidia’s Blackwell GPUs to boost AI, ML, and HPC workloads. The new instances deliver 60% more memory bandwidth and up to 125% higher GPU TFLOPs than previous versions. Enterprises can now deploy generative models and simulations faster, starting in the Oregon region through EC2 Capacity Blocks for machine learning.

Microsoft confirmed it delivered AI and cloud services to Israel’s military during the Gaza war but claims no evidence links its tech to direct harm. Internal and external reviews found no misuse, though critics remain skeptical. The company faced employee protests and growing pressure over its role. Microsoft said it supported hostage rescue efforts but admitted it can’t fully track how clients use its tools.

Vultr has integrated AMD’s new EPYC 4005 Series chips into its infrastructure, targeting businesses that need enterprise-grade compute without the heavy price tag. With support for DDR5 and up to 16 SMT cores, the chips enhance Vultr’s Bare Metal and High Frequency Compute offerings—signaling a shift toward efficient, performance-centric cloud solutions designed to scale with the demands of modern digital enterprises.
