New center employs innovative mixed-hall design that streamlines future adaptability

DC BLOX, a premier provider of secure and reliable data center and fiber network solutions throughout the Southeast, announced the completed expansion of its Birmingham, Alabama data center. This expansion entails a new data hall design, tailored to meet the burgeoning demand for High-Performance Compute (HPC) applications, and marks a significant milestone in DC BLOX’s commitment to foster technological growth and innovation in Birmingham and the surrounding region.

The innovative mixed-hall design not only streamlines the allocation of floor space and power between high-density and standard cabinets, but also sets the stage for adaptable configurations catering to specific regional requirements across the company’s data centers. The new data hall design signifies a major advancement in DC BLOX’s mission to deliver cutting-edge solutions that empower local businesses, government entities, and academic institutions.

By accommodating both high-density cabinets and standard cabinets within the same space, the new design enables researchers to deploy GPU clusters in close proximity to traditional retail racks, both for convenience and for shorter cabling for data transfer. The state-of-the-art infrastructure provides the ability to support up to 2.4MW of 3N/2 distributed redundant power, aligning with the concurrently maintainable Tier III design of our standard data halls. The data hall can house up to 240 standard retail cabinets and 36 HPC-capable cabinets, each supporting up to 35kW of power.

The expansion responds to the surging demand for HPC applications driven by several factors, including the availability of cost-effective HPC systems based on commodity hardware, specialized processor accelerators such as GPUs, and the escalating utilization of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) applications. HPC technology is vital for a wide range of industries, including government, universities, manufacturing, and bio-sciences, yet is often inaccessible due to the lack of data center infrastructure to support its power and connectivity requirements.

Birmingham’s recent recognition as a federal tech hub by the U.S. Economic Development Administration is derived from their transformation into a center for technological excellence. This designation not only recognizes Birmingham’s dedication to innovation, but also its commitment to emerging technology areas, notably artificial intelligence and biotechnology. DC BLOX’s HPC-capable facility and its interconnected network enable customers like the University of Alabama System to process, store, and transmit timely data to research facilities across the country.

“This expansion underscores DC BLOX’s steadfast dedication to empowering the technology-based economy of Birmingham and beyond,” said Jeff Uphues, CEO of DC BLOX. “Our innovative mixed-hall design and HPC capability are testaments to our commitment to respond to the specific needs of our customers in Birmingham. And our new HPC-enabled data hall can be added to the data centers in any of our markets, as demand requires.”

“DC BLOX Birmingham is a key partner for our strategy at UAB IT—Research Computing,” said Ralph Zottola, AVP for UAB Research Computing. “The facility, operations, and staff enable us to design and deploy cutting edge cyberinfrastructure in support of the world-class research conducted at The University of Alabama at Birmingham. From tailoring custom colocation solutions to meet emergent needs during a crisis [COVID-19] to constructing a new data hall engineered and equipped with the infrastructure to deliver the denser power and cooling necessary for high performance computing, the DC BLOX team has proven to be a true partner to UAB Research Computing.”

DC BLOX’s Birmingham data center originally opened its doors in July 2019, unveiling 13,000 square feet of office space and 18,000 square feet of data center space. With 50+MW of additional future power available and plans for multiple hyperscale and/or build-to-suit data centers, this campus is poised to become the heart of connectivity and compute infrastructure in Alabama.

Proprietary technology and interactive financials give small to medium-sized businesses the actionable insights they need to save thousands on monthly expenses

Uplinq, the tech-powered company that provides advanced bookkeeping solutions through data automation and machine learning, today announced it has raised $5.6 million in seed funding to revolutionize how small business owners manage bookkeeping and provide a more streamlined way of accessing financial data to empower small-to-medium-sized business owners (SMBs) with actionable insights. The funding was led by AZ-VC, the Arizona-focused venture capital fund that is uniquely focused on supporting emerging technology companies throughout the state. The round included a strategic investment from Live Oak Ventures, the fintech-focused venture arm of Wilmington, NC-based Live Oak Bank, one of the biggest SBA lenders that knows firsthand the struggles of bookkeeping for small businesses. Additional investors include Merus Capital and Members of the Kuwaiti Royal Family.

“SMBs start a business because they have an interest, expertise, or opportunity in a certain area or industry – not bookkeeping. They are often forced to choose from poor options such as outsourcing to firms with inconsistent service, hiring an internal finance manager, or doing it themselves,” said Uplinq CEO, Alex Glenn. “That’s where Uplinq comes in. We offer businesses a better way to get professional help through our proprietary technology, that not only makes bookkeeping worry-free for the business owner, but also provides them with powerful data automation and machine learning to better understand their finances and how their business can improve.”

With monthly subscriptions and pricing based on business needs across a variety of industries including technology, construction, healthcare, real estate, and more, Uplinq seamlessly integrates with over 10,000 financial institutions and many of the resources businesses already use including QuickBooks, ADP, BambooHR, and most payroll, accounting, point-of-sale, and HR vendors. This process is done through Uplinq’s proprietary technology that comprehensively gathers, organizes, and categorizes business transactions, to provide unparalleled review-ready, real-time analysis at the touch of a button. Due to their innovative technology, they provide customers with updated financials every week — instead of monthly or quarterly — and are piloting additional solutions with a planned release in 2023.

“With continued economic uncertainty, new automated fintech like Uplinq helps businesses take advantage by keeping track of changing costs and financials more efficiently than ever before to make smart business decisions fast,” said Glenn. “This funding round will accelerate the next phase of Uplinq’s growth plans and expand our reach across this lucrative $15 billion industry.”

The funding amount will scale Uplinq’s marketing efficiency, sales power, engineering capabilities, and customer delivery departments to support the demand for its next-level solution in the vastly underserved bookkeeping fintech market.

“Our investment reflects our view that machine learning and artificial intelligence, coupled with comparative financial analysis in bookkeeping, is an untapped vertical, and Uplinq is poised to lead the charge in making SMB data accessible and actionable for everyone,” said Stephanie Mann, EVP of corporate development and strategy for Live Oak Bank. “Businesses are only as strong as their accounting systems, and the list of organizations that will benefit from Uplinq’s financial data and automation technology is growing steadily each day. We look forward to seeing the new ways Uplinq will help our network and new businesses thrive now and in the future.”

“We have met with dozens of top-notch technology companies within Arizona and beyond, and what stands out about the Uplinq team is their infectious energy and passion for reimagining the bookkeeping industry. It is extremely rare to feel impacted to the point where you meet a company and wake up the next morning with a pronounced sense of conviction about a team’s ability to execute their vision, but that is Uplinq,” said Benjamin Brockwell, Principal, AZ-VC. “We are eager to put our vast regional and global fintech weight behind Uplinq as they enable SMBs to build more sustainable businesses.”

This current funding is in addition to a previously unannounced round of $1.6 million from additional seed investors.

The new applications are expected to be available on the Strangeworks platform in early 2023 on a pay-as-you-go service

Strangeworks, Inc. (“Strangeworks”) and Rigetti Computing, Inc. (“Rigetti”) (Nasdaq: RGTI) today announced Strangeworks’ commitment to make available on its platform two new quantum machine learning (QML) applications from Rigetti. These new QML applications are Rigetti’s quantum kernel and quantum convolutional “quanvolutional” neural network methods, which are optimized specifically for Rigetti quantum computers and are designed to advance the development of applications related to classification and regression problems. These QML applications are expected to initially be available exclusively on the Strangeworks platform in early 2023.

The applications are planned to be made available through Rigetti’s on-demand, pay-as-you-go access model via Strangeworks. This on-demand access to Rigetti systems has been enabled by tightly integrating Rigetti’s quantum processing units with the Strangeworks platform. The integration has also resulted in higher performance of Rigetti systems on Strangeworks by enabling lower overall program latency and native Quil programming language support.

“Rigetti is excited to continue its close partnership with Strangeworks and make its first reference applications available to users through their platform,” said Eric Ostby, VP of Product. “We believe that quantum machine learning applications continue to be promising candidates for quantum advantage research.”

“These new applications will accelerate businesses’ ability to create valuable quantum applications by enabling them to bring Rigetti quantum capabilities to their classification, modeling, and detection problems,” said whurley, Founder and CEO of Strangeworks. “Today’s announcement deepens the partnership between Rigetti and Strangeworks, and advances Strangeworks’ goal to make access to quantum applications simple, flexible and performance-driven.”

More about applications and the Strangeworks platform:

  • Strangeworks Managed Applications
    These applications are anticipated to be available on the Strangeworks platform, which features a rapidly growing catalog of turn-key services that are designed to make applying quantum computing technologies easier to integrate into workflows and apply to problems.
  • Rigetti Quanvolutional Neural Network Method
    Rigetti’s Quanvolutional Neural Network method is designed to enhance image and video analysis by adding quantum-enhanced features to an existing data set for use by classical neural networks. This method is potentially well-suited for simplifying follow-on machine learning processing, since it may require less data and fewer parameters to train the classical model.
  • Rigetti Quantum Kernel Method
    Rigetti’s Quantum Kernel Method is designed to assess similarities between points in a data set, which may be valuable for usage in a classification or regression model. By assessing similarities in the exponentially larger space afforded by the quantum processing unit, the output of this method could potentially be used in anomaly detection.

These applications are planned to be available on the Strangeworks platform in early 2023. The quantum kernel method is planned to be available to all users on the Strangeworks platform, while the quanvolutional neural network method is planned to be available only to select customers and partners.

Rigetti has also announced its intent to join the Strangeworks Backstage Pass program, with plans to offer up to $10,000 of sponsored credits to each approved user. Rigetti plans to prioritize users with an interest in quantum machine learning for enterprise applications, including but not limited to those interested in leveraging Rigetti’s quanvolutional neural network method.

Today Domo (Nasdaq: DOMO) announced it has joined the Amazon SageMaker Ready Program. This designation helps customers discover partner software solutions that are validated by Amazon Web Services (AWS) Partner Solutions Architects to integrate with Amazon SageMaker.

Joining the Amazon SageMaker Ready Program differentiates Domo as an AWS Partner Network (APN) member with a product that works with Amazon SageMaker and is generally available for and fully supports AWS customers. The Amazon SageMaker Ready Program helps customers quickly and easily find AWS Partners that can help accelerate their machine learning (ML) adoption by providing out-of-the-box abstractions for most common challenges in ML that build on top of the foundational capabilities Amazon SageMaker provides.

Amazon SageMaker offers a robust set of capabilities and AWS Partners help extend its value by integrating these capabilities with their solutions. By providing customers with a catalog of solutions that lift the complexities of machine learning, the Amazon SageMaker Ready Program will broaden the user base and increase customer adoption. Amazon SageMaker Ready Program members offer AWS customers Amazon SageMaker-supported products that offer Amazon SageMaker both in AWS Partner solutions they already know, or offer products that simplify each step of the ML model building. These applications are validated by AWS Partner Solutions Architects to ensure customers have a consistent experience using the software.

Customers can review the Amazon SageMaker Ready Partner product catalog to confirm their preferred vendor solutions are already integrated with Amazon SageMaker. Customers can also discover, browse by category or ML model deployment challenges, and select partner software solutions for their specific ML development needs.

“We’re dedicated to helping companies unlock the full potential of their data and are pleased to become an Amazon SageMaker Ready Partner,” said John Mellor, CEO at Domo. “This designation highlights the work we’ve done to incorporate machine learning directly into the Domo platform to provide customers deeper data insights and help improve critical business processes in record time.”

To support the seamless integration and deployment of these solutions, AWS established the AWS Service Ready Program to help customers identify solutions that support AWS services and spend less time evaluating new tools, and more time scaling their use of solutions that work on AWS.

Powered by Amazon SageMaker, Domo’s automated machine learning (Auto ML) makes it possible for anyone – whether they’re a data scientist or front-line worker – to process large amounts of data and determine the most accurate models for data analysis. The combination of Domo and Amazon SageMaker helps makes ML accessible to all employees and drives valuable ML-driven insights for business. With just a few clicks, customers can transform their data to prepare for ML and find the model that achieves the best performance for their task.
