  + stars: | 2024-04-09 | by ( Jordan Novet | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Google is trying to make cloud computing more affordable with a custom-built Arm -based server chip. With the new Arm-based chip, Google is playing catch-up with rivals such as Amazon and Microsoft, which have been employing a similar strategy for years. Google has used Arm-based server computers for internal purposes to run YouTube advertising, the BigTable and Spanner databases and the BigQuery data analytics tool. Arm chips, which are popular in smartphones, offer a shorter set of instructions than x86 chips, which are commonly found in PCs. Axion offers 30% better performance than the fastest general-purpose Arm-based virtual machines in the cloud and 50% better performance than than comparable VMs based on x86, Google said.

KKR built a new client portal to replace a legacy one built using vendor tech. KKR had a problem with its client portal. When clients faced issues with the portal, KKR had no visibility into what was causing the problem and could only open a ticket with the vendor, he said. In 2020, KKR embarked on a total rebuild of its client portal, which eventually launched in the summer of 2021. The new portal was built on AWS, where KKR has already moved much of its technology and infrastructure.

CompaniesCompanies Law FirmsLaw Firms Related documents VMware Inc FollowMay 2 (Reuters) - VMware Inc (VMW.N) must pay $84.5 million for infringing two patents belonging to rival software company Densify, a Delaware federal jury said on Monday. The verdict, made public Tuesday, said VMware willfully violated Densify's patent rights with its software for optimizing "virtual machines" used in cloud computing. Densify CEO Gerry Smith said the company was "grateful" for the verdict, which "validated the hard work of our inventors." Canada-based Densify won a verdict worth nearly $237 million against VMware in the same case in 2020. The lawsuit alleged that VMware used Densify's technology as a "blueprint" for its own.

Ternary's client base is mostly big companies that need to manage their cloud costs generally because of their size, he said. It's easy for cloud costs to get out of control for big companies that have a lot of data and workloads in the cloud. But more and more, Ternary is getting interest from smaller companies looking to lower their cloud bills, he said.
