Patriot Consulting has launched a free cost evaluation service for Microsoft's new Integrated Security Operations Center (ISOC), aimed at Microsoft 365 E5 and E7 customers.

Oppenheimer names top software stocks as AI spending shifts from adoption to ROI focus

Oppenheimer analysts say AI in software has moved beyond experimentation, with companies now required to demonstrate measurable returns on investment. AI is becoming a recurring operating expense, with chief financial officers evaluating investments alongside labour costs. The firm says system-of-record vendors and businesses with seat-plus-consumption pricing models are best positioned to benefit. These models offer protection against disruption and the clearest path to AI-driven growth. Oppenheimer's top picks include Microsoft Corporation, citing accelerating platform demand and over $1 billion in AI-related revenue. ServiceNow is highlighted for its exposure to automation and security tailwinds, also exceeding $1 billion in AI revenue. Braze is noted as a system-of-record for customer engagement with durable competitive advantages.

IntuigenceAI launches sovereign industrial AI on Microsoft Fabric, compiling plant records in under 48 hours

IntuigenceAI has launched its Sovereign Industrial AI platform on Microsoft Fabric's workload hub. The system compiles a plant's scattered engineering records into a single knowledge graph in under 48 hours, a process that typically takes the industry months. It then deploys synthetic engineers called Intuigents to answer questions and execute engineering work. The platform runs within customers' own cloud environments, with data remaining in their Microsoft Fabric tenant. It processes engineering drawings, process flow diagrams, and other technical documents whilst respecting existing access permissions through Microsoft Entra ID. Founded by Moe Tanabian, former Global Vice President of Industrial Software at Microsoft, IntuigenceAI is backed by Eric Schmidt's venture firm and has been operating in production plants since 2024. The company will co-host an Industrial AI Summit with Microsoft in Houston on 4 November.

TomTom brings location intelligence to Microsoft Fabric through IQ Sharing for AI agents

TomTom is expanding its collaboration with Microsoft by bringing its location intelligence to AI agents built on Microsoft Fabric and Microsoft Foundry through Microsoft's IQ Sharing preview. The integration enables Azure and Fabric customers to build AI products that understand real-world context by combining TomTom's location data with their own data in OneLake. TomTom's location intelligence is built on Overture and open standards, supporting interoperability with compatible open datasets. This allows AI agents to understand what places represent, how roads, regulations and risks relate to each other, and how conditions change over time. The location intelligence is now available on Microsoft Marketplace and is Azure MACC eligible. TomTom will showcase the preview at FabCon Europe 2026 in Barcelona.
