Building an AI application that works is one step. Running it for every user, every day, at a predictable cost is the harder one. That was the focus of our webinar The Enterprise AI Blueprint: Scaling the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition. Cesare Bosi, GPU product manager at Leaseweb, hosted the session. Sonam […]
Our new hardware Web Application Firewall (WAF) brings the security layer in front of your web applications inside your own Leaseweb environment, so the decisions about your web traffic stay with you. Most digital independence reviews start with where data is stored and which cloud providers it depends on. The security layer gets less attention, […]
Migration backup gaps open at the cutover, when the old environment’s backup is switched off before anyone confirms the new one works. They hit databases hardest, because a database restored from a full-machine backup isn’t always consistent. When we surveyed our Acronis customers this year, we asked what they protect so we could see where […]
Ransomware backup attacks follow a consistent five-step sequence: attackers map your backup repositories, change retention settings to purge older copies, delete the backup catalog, try to release immutability locks, and stop backup services before encrypting. Veeam’s 2024 Ransomware Trends Report found attackers target backup repositories in 96% of attacks and compromise them 76% of the […]
Most teams that pick an “EU Region” can’t answer that. They know where their data sits. They don’t know which government can force their provider to hand it over. TL;DR Choosing an “EU Region” tells you where your servers sit, not which legal system can reach your data. That gap sits at the center of […]
TL;DR: Running your own language model comes down to three options: subscribe, buy, or rent and build. Only buying and renting count as self-hosting an LLM. Renting dedicated hardware gives you the ownership buying promises, without the procurement, and none of the per-token exposure of subscribing. This guide covers all three, then walks through exactly […]
Legal challenges to transatlantic data frameworks aren’t just a headline for compliance teams to track. They can trigger emergency vendor risk reviews and force migration planning many enterprises haven’t budgeted for. Anchoring your AI and cloud infrastructure in an autonomous European legal entity removes this specific dependency from your risk picture entirely. The next legal […]
40% of the customers in Leaseweb’s 2026 survey of Acronis users have already needed to restore from backup. The next question is how long that restore takes. A timed restore test answers it in an afternoon, before an outage forces the answer. TL;DR The only way to know your recovery time is to measure it, […]
You already paid for the AI model, but there’s a second price most teams don’t notice until later: the proprietary knowledge you hand over just to make the model useful. That’s not a Leaseweb argument, but the argument Microsoft’s own CEO made in public, in July 2026. TL;DR Microsoft’s own CEO argued in July 2026 […]
Cloud infrastructure costs are increasing across Europe in 2026. As this trend continues to climb, organizations are seeing the need for budget adjustments, and that means providing a rationale to obtain approval for any extra spend. To help with this, we’ve provided an overview of what’s changed in the market to cause these increases, how […]
