Data sovereignty is an opportunity for regional growth

Data sovereignty wasn’t a major topic just a few years ago and now it’s becoming a major economic opportunity for regions across the UK. In this clip from Perspectives from the Edge, Katie Gallagher OBE from Manchester Digital discusses why the conversation around data sovereignty has shifted, and how the rise of AI is accelerating demand for trusted regional digital infrastructure. As organisations rethink where data is stored, processed and governed, regions like Manchester are increasingly well placed to benefit through investment, innovation and digital skills growth.

Episode 31: Who really governs artificial intelligence? ft. Luqman Kondeth

In Episode 31 of Server Room, we sit down with Luqman Kondeth, AI Governance & Cybersecurity Strategist and Director at NYU, for a conversation that goes far beyond technology. From personal growth and global experiences to AI governance, cybersecurity, and leadership, this episode explores how mindset shapes the way we build careers, communities, and the future of technology itself. In this episode, we discuss.

OpenTelemetry Monitoring with Netdata

If you've standardized on OpenTelemetry (or you're heading that way), you probably know the collector gets your data out, but where it lands and how useful it is once it gets there are separate problems. Netdata now ingests both OTLP metrics and OTLP logs natively, so your OTel pipelines feed directly into the same monitoring experience as everything else in your infrastructure: same dashboards, same alerting, same query interface. No separate backends, no context switching.

Future Solving with Brian Evergreen (Or: How to Escape those AI Career Jitters)

Brian Evergreen joins the show to challenge the fear-driven narrative around AI and work. Rather than treating the future as something coming for us, Brian argues that leaders and individuals should decide what future they want to create, then work backwards. He explores why “start with the problem” thinking limits AI strategy, how visible strategy and relational leadership can unlock better transformation, and why human connection may become more valuable—not less—in an AI-enabled world. A thoughtful conversation on escaping AI career anxiety, building resilient networks, and creating value beyond efficiency.

Ameet Talwalkar on Building the AI Research Lab

"We're doing cutting-edge AI, focused on real translational impact: getting our research over the wall and into production." Ameet Talwalkar, Datadog's Chief Scientist, shares what it took to build the AI Research Lab from the ground up — and what makes DAIR different from traditional research teams. At Datadog, research ships. Recent work from the lab includes Toto 2.0, open-weights time series forecasting models ranked on leading benchmarks, and ARFBench, a new benchmark for evaluating AI on real incident data.

AI Might Break Open Source Differently Than You Think

AI coding agents may not replace open source libraries overnight. But Adam Arellano, Field CTO at Harness, thinks models like Mythos could expose a bigger problem: finding bugs, vulnerabilities, and edge cases faster than maintainers can keep up. That might be the real threat to tools and libraries.
