4 little bits of Tech, that you might find interesting…

Good Morning and Happy Tuesday. This is issue 28 of The Tech Stop.

We're covering chip shortage due to AI, retiring Ingress NGINX, AWS Interconnect, and OpenAI's legal issue.

  1. The explosive demand for AI is triggering a global memory-chip shortage — basic DRAM and flash used in everyday electronics are in short supply, prices have more than doubled, and many projects risk delay. More.

    POV: Review supply-chain dependencies and secure chip commitments or face price rises and project delays.

  2. The open-source Ingress NGINX — a core network gateway for Kubernetes clusters — is being retired in March 2026. More.

    POV: Audit Kubernetes clusters for Ingress NGINX usage and migrate to a supported controller, or risk unpatched security holes and instability.

  3. AWS Interconnect - multicloud lets organisations provision private, secure, high-speed network links between AWS and other cloud providers. More.

    POV: Evaluate cross-cloud connectivity to reduce complexity, and improve reliability.

  4. A US judge has ordered OpenAI to hand over 20 million anonymised chat-logs as part of a copyright lawsuit, undermining assumptions of confidentiality. More.

    POV: Treat chat-tools as legally non-private and revise any use of them for sensitive business or personal data.

And just for fun… Small things and all that…

That’s it for this time, see you in seven days 🙌
