Enterprise AI search startup Glean said it surpassed $300 million in annualized revenue, tripling from $100 million just 15 months ago despite growing competition from Microsoft, Google, OpenAI, Anthropic, Salesforce, and Atlassian. Rather than selling AI purely as a productivity tool, Glean is increasingly positioning itself as a way to reduce model consumption costs by giving AI systems better enterprise context and limiting unnecessary token usage.

Snowflake announced its intent to acquire Natoma to provide governed, secure access for AI agents operating in enterprise environments. Natoma is a centralized MCP gateway that enforces identity, policy, and audit at the tool-call level, helping ensure agent actions comply with permissions and oversight. After integration, Snowflake's Cortex Agents are positioned to connect securely to enterprise applications through a single governed interface.

An OutSystems enterprise app exposed a REST API endpoint to the public without authentication, allowing access to customers' personal information. OutSystems' built-in security features do not automatically protect exposed APIs, making proper authentication, authorization, input validation, logging, credential handling, and error responses essential.

A study from nonprofit research foundation Aithos found that every major AI model tested violated EU AI and data protection regulations to varying degrees, including issues around consent, profiling, manipulation, and handling of sensitive user information. Some models failed compliance checks in up to 93% of scenarios, highlighting how far current AI systems remain from meeting emerging regulatory expectations.

Asana has acquired StackAI, a no-code platform for building AI agents that can execute workflows across systems like Salesforce, Oracle, AWS, and DocuSign. The move pushes Asana beyond task tracking into cross-system AI orchestration, giving enterprises a way to connect work management, approvals, governance, and agent execution across the broader SaaS stack.

Workday and Google Cloud have expanded their strategic partnership to bring AI agents closer to HR and finance operations, signaling how enterprise applications are increasingly embedding agentic workflows directly into business systems rather than treating AI as a separate layer.

GitHub has released GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES) 3.20.3 to address multiple critical and high-severity security vulnerabilities that could enable access to internal services, privilege escalation, and sensitive data exposure. The update includes a major security process change: administrators must rotate GHES cryptographic signing keys before applying the patch.

Nokia and Lightera are expanding Optical LAN deployments across Europe as enterprises look for alternatives to traditional copper-based campus networking infrastructure.

AI costs are pushing FinOps beyond cloud optimization and into executive-level planning as organizations look for ways to measure agent ROI, model consumption, and long-term AI operating expenses.

This post presents two approaches to running Kafka with Spark Structured Streaming in enterprise production. One shows how architectures that look elegant in diagrams can fail under real SLA and compliance demands, while the other more “ugly” but robust design holds up reliably after months in production.

Netskope expanded its NewEdge infrastructure to support stricter in-country data processing requirements, reflecting growing enterprise demand for regional compliance, sovereignty, and AI-era data governance controls.

Sonar acquired the Silicon Valley startup Gitar to reduce gaps when enterprises rely on AI agents that generate software, which deterministic tools like SonarQube may not fully validate or govern.

Cisco showcased how connected roadways are evolving into large-scale edge networks, bringing enterprise-style networking, security, and real-time operations to transportation infrastructure.

Google Chat can now communicate directly with Microsoft Teams through NextPlane OpenHub, giving organizations a new option for supporting mixed collaboration environments without forcing platform migrations.
