File, object, or block storage: what's the difference?

Choosing where your data lives is only half the question. How it's stored matters too. File, object, and block storage are each built for a different job. File storage uses the hierarchy you already know. Files live inside folders, and those folders can live inside other folders. Object storage gets rid of that hierarchy. Each piece of data is stored as its own object, which makes it easy to scale.

Are AI agents about to break cloud computing?

AI agents can write code and run tools on their own now. The problem is they still need somewhere to actually do it. exe.dev's David Crawshaw joins Michael Reid to break down why persistent virtual machines might become the backbone of agentic AI, and what happens to cloud economics when one person is running dozens of agents at once.

The network layer securing your multicloud traffic

You migrated the workload. The app's live across clouds. But is the traffic between them actually locked down, or just assumed to be? There's a layer of the network doing the heavy lifting here, and it goes by a name that gets confused with something else constantly. Full breakdown on our blog, link in bio.

The VM Boom For AI Agents | David Crawshaw Co-Founder & CEO, exe.dev

What happens when AI agents stop simply answering questions and start using computers of their own? It could create an entirely new boom in virtual machines. In this episode of Uplink, David Crawshaw, Co-Founder and CEO of exe.dev, joins host Michael Reid to explore the infrastructure behind the rapidly emerging world of AI agents. As agents become capable of writing code, running applications, operating tools, maintaining state, and working independently, they need more than access to an AI model. They need computing environments where they can actually get work done.
