VMware Pressure, AI Compute Wars & Data Center Limits | Tech Field Day News Rundown: July 15, 2026
Is your IT strategy quietly giving up control?
This week on the Tech Field Day News Rundown, Tom Hollingsworth and Alastair Cooke examine VMware’s rising costs and lock-in risks, AI-driven cybersecurity, the escalating open-versus-closed model race, and the strain AI data centers place on local infrastructure.
They also explore concerns around AI providers retaining business knowledge, reported source-code leaks, intellectual property, and how organizations can preserve options before vendor dependence becomes urgent.
This and more on the Tech Field Day News Rundown with Tom Hollingsworth and Alastair Cooke.
