In a matter of minutes, thousands of websites that rely on Cloudflare’s CDN, from Fortune 500 brands to SaaS platforms and consumer apps, went offline for hours.

Dec 8, 2025 By Stephen Hall In Pulsant

Without assurance that facilities can resist disruption and protect data, organisations face increased exposure to audit failure, downtime, and reputational damage. For executives and auditors, data centre security is part of wider governance and risk management. Oversight means confirming that physical safeguards, environmental systems, and compliance frameworks are in place and can be trusted.

Your Guide To Inference Cost (And Turning It Into Margin Advantage)

Dec 5, 2025 By Keith MacKenzie In CloudZero
AI adoption is exploding, but margins aren’t. In fact, an MIT analysis reports that 95% of organizations have yet to see measurable ROI from GenAI. This gap becomes obvious as soon as teams push a model into production and usage begins to scale. For most workloads, the pressure comes after training.

Marginal Cost Explained: The KPI Every SaaS CFO Cares About (But You Rarely Track)

Dec 4, 2025 By Lyne Carolyne In CloudZero
Ask a SaaS team how they measure cloud efficiency, and you’ll hear familiar things. Total cloud spend. Average cost per customer. Maybe a breakdown of spend by service. All useful, but rather wobbly. Now ask, “What does it cost you to serve one more customer?” That’s when the room goes quiet. And that’s often where cloud economics gets really wobbly. Because that number, your marginal cost, is what actually determines your margins. Not your total cloud bill.
