Network Break 426: NetBox Labs Raises $20 Million; Intel Foundry, Arm Team Up To Make SoCs
Take a Network Break! This week we check out a new Fortinet firewall, discuss NetBox Labs’s $20 million funding round and why it spun itself out of NS1’s IBM acquisition, and whether there’s a movement to hold tech executives responsible for tech failures (and who else should take some blame). Amazon’s annual shareholder letter acknowledges that customer concerns about AWS cloud costs are creating headwinds (but doesn’t say anything about cutting prices), juice jacking hype hijacks the media, and global PC shipments fell by a third. Intel Foundry and Arm team up on SoC manufacturing, the EU chimes in with concerns about Broadcom’s proposed VMware acquisition, and Microsoft tinkers with the Print Screen button in Windows 11.
