Advancing data transmission rates to 100Gbps per lane drastically transforms the ecosystem of data centers, especially AI/ML and HPC. Training AI and GPT workloads drive huge and high-density networks utilizing large numbers of servers connected together through rack switches over short reach links. The low-power, high-performance AOCs and transceivers that Optomind and MaxLinear have developed together are ideal for these applications.

Optomind selected MaxLinear's 5nm Keystone PAM4 DSP as the best-in-class solution for 800Gbps SR8 transceiver with high-performance and the lowest power consumption to meet the market demand. Both 800G-AOCs and 800G-SR8 transceivers are ready for customer sampling and shall be available in volume production by the end of Q4 this year.

Optomind's innovative optical engine solution, which includes unique designs and implementation of the simplest structure, fully integrates optics and mechanics. And its patented prealigned OSA architecture enables a unique manufacturing process in a nimble and simple way without any alignment equipment and will be a game changer for ultra high volume production with significant reduction of total manufacturing cost.

New Esri Press Book Empowers Users to Unlock the Potential of AI with the Power of Geography4.8.2026 17:35:00 EEST | Press release

Esri has released Exploring GeoAI: Tools and Workflows, a practical guide to applying geospatial artificial intelligence (GeoAI) using ArcGIS. Designed for GIS professionals, analysts, and data scientists, this hands-on workbook provides the knowledge and tools needed to integrate advanced AI workflows into real-world spatial analysis. As GeoAI continues to transform how organizations analyze and interpret location-based data, Exploring GeoAI equips readers with the skills to confidently implement deep learning models and workflows. The book guides users through the full GeoAI life cycle—from preparing systems and data to training, evaluating, and deploying models in operational environments. Readers begin by learning how to install and configure deep learning frameworks, assess hardware capabilities, and optimize system performance. From there, they progress through key stages of the GeoAI workflow, including defining project requirements, selecting appropriate data, choosing and trai

Rehlko Defines What It Takes to Build AI-Ready Power Infrastructure as Data Center Energy Demands Evolve4.8.2026 16:15:00 EEST | Press release

Rehlko, a global industrial energy resilience platform providing custom-engineered, integrated power solutions for mission-critical infrastructure worldwide, today released new insights on the power infrastructure requirements emerging from the rapid growth of large language models and artificial intelligence. In its latest eBook, AI Readiness Starts with Power: Designing for Real-World Load Conditions, Rehlko examines how increasingly dynamic AI workloads are reshaping expectations for data center power systems and highlights key infrastructure considerations for operators seeking to scale AI capacity reliably and efficiently. As the eBook outlines, AI readiness is increasingly defined not by installed capacity, but by how systems perform under highly variable real-world load conditions. The AI Power Challenge As investment in AI infrastructure accelerates, data center operators face growing pressure to deploy capacity faster than traditional utility infrastructure can support. At the
