News Summary:
On April 28, 2026, TD SYNNEX partnered with Gcore to expand its AI distribution strategy, integrating Gcore's sovereign AI software into its European partner ecosystem. The agreement focuses on simplifying how partners deploy and scale AI infrastructure, particularly in regulated environments facing tight constraints on performance, latency, and data control. Previously, a Gcore report released on April 22 indicated that Mexico and Brazil are the primary sources of network-layer DDoS attacks, accounting for 31% and 24% respectively, with the U.S. contributing 20%. This finding followed another Gcore report on April 21, which detailed a more than doubling of DDoS attacks in one year, from 512,000 at the end of 2024 to 1.3 million by the end of 2025. This report also noted a peak attack volume of 12 Tbps, a sixfold increase from the previous 2.1 Tbps. Earlier, on April 20, Gcore launched FAST, a new S3-compatible Object Storage built on VAST Data's all-flash storage platform, specifically designed for high-throughput, low-latency data access at scale for performance-intensive and AI workloads, in contrast to standard object storage.
