KUALA LUMPUR, July 28 (Bernama) -- InterSystems, a creative data technology provider, has announced the general availability of InterSystems Data Studio AI Assistant, a new generative artificial intelligence (AI)-powered extension for InterSystems Data Studio.
InterSystems Senior Vice President, Data Platforms, Scott Gnau in a statement said organisations are increasingly looking for ways to turn their data into actionable intelligence without adding complexity.
“InterSystems Data Studio AI Assistant brings generative AI directly to a trusted data foundation, enabling users to interact with information more naturally while maintaining the governance, security, and controls enterprises require,” he added.
As organisations move from AI experimentation to production deployments, many are discovering that the greatest challenge is not the AI model itself, but providing AI systems with access to trusted, current, and business-ready information.
Enterprise data is often fragmented across applications, databases, cloud services, files, data warehouses, and departmental silos, making it difficult for users and AI systems to generate reliable insights.
InterSystems Data Studio AI Assistant is embedded within the broader InterSystems Data Studio platform, enabling organisations to combine AI capabilities with a common, integrated data layer that supports consistent access to trusted information across users, applications, analytics platforms, and AI systems.
Built as an optional extension for InterSystems Data Studio and available as a fully managed service, the AI Assistant provides interactive assistants and agents that help users explore both structured and unstructured data, discover available information assets, generate visualisations, and accelerate data analysis.
InterSystems added that the solution includes out-of-the-box agents as well as a flexible multi-agent framework that enables organisations to create custom assistants tailored to specific business requirements.

ARTEL OPENS PRE-ORDERS FOR PTP ETHERNET SWITCH
KUALA LUMPUR, July 28 (Bernama) -- Artel Video Systems, a Patton company and provider of media transport and broadcast networking solutions, has announced the availability for pre-order of its Quarra PTP-10GSE12SFP 10-gigabits-per-second (Gbps) Precision Timing Protocol (PTP) Ethernet Switch.
Purpose-built for Pro AV, media broadcasting, factory automation and 4G/5G mobile backhaul, the latest member of the Quarra switch family delivers nanosecond-accurate timing for mission-critical networks.
According to a statement, four models are now available for pre-order with single or dual DC and AC power supply options.
“We designed this switch with broadcast and Pro AV in mind. The option for DC or AC, single or dual power supplies, Sync-E, 1PPS input/output ports, and 12 SFP+ ports make this a uniquely powerful and versatile part of any timing-sensitive media transport network,” said Artel Video Systems Director, Media Transport Systems, Tim Godby.
The Quarra is a carrier-class managed Ethernet switch that combines 12 10G SFP+ fibre ports with eight Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45) copper ports. It supports both Leaf and Spine switch functions in a single ruggedised unit.
Designed for live broadcast environments, the new device supports IEEE 1588 PTPv2 with all clocking modes to help eliminate timing errors. Every port can be individually configured for SyncE or PTP timestamp delivery.

Architecture's Inscriptions Opened at TANK Shanghai, Bringing Together Architects, Artists, and Scholars Across Two Days of Academic Programs
SHANGHAI, July 27 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Architecture's Inscriptions, a major scholarly exhibition curated by K Michael Hays and Sun Shi Ning, opened at TANK Shanghai on 8 July 2026. The opening was followed by an international symposium at the West Bund Museum on 9 July, where participating architects, artists, and scholars expanded upon the exhibition's central themes through a series of public conversations. The exhibition remains on view through 7 October 2026.
Bringing together works by leading contemporary Chinese architects and artists alongside ancient Chinese manuscripts, ink rubbings, scholar's rocks, paintings, and calligraphic works, Architecture's Inscriptions presents architecture as part of a broader tradition of inscriptions that unfolds across materials, media, and historical periods.
The opening ceremony was attended by the curators; exhibition designer Yung Ho Chang; participating architects such as Huang Wenjing, Li Hu, Liu Jiakun, Liu Yichun, Zhang Ke, Zhu Xiaofeng, and Zhuang Shen; participating artists such as Ding Yi, Xu Bing, and Zhan Wang; and several hundred guests from the fields of architecture, art, and culture.
Since the 1990s, Professor Hays has pursued architecture's inscriptions as a sustained theoretical project, developed through his colloquia at Tongji University and advanced through joint research and a seminar with Dr. Sun at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design. By bringing architecture in conversation with ancient and contemporary art practices, Architecture’s Inscriptions proposes a different approach to engaging with design discourses – one that is not bound by singular ideas, representation, or determination, but is instead the result of iterative processes and situational propensities.
The exhibition unfolds through four thematic sections – Allography, Unary Trait, Parataxis, and Earth Marks – tracing inscription from graphic notations and Shitao's "singular brushstroke" (yi hua), to the juxtaposition of heterogeneous forms, and finally to architecture as an inscription upon the earth. The symposium at the West Bund Museum further brought together the exhibition's curators, participating architects and artists, and invited scholars for a day of discussions organized around the themes "The Letter, the Line," "Technics | Poetics," and "Earth Marks." Together, the exhibition and symposium examined inscription as a productive framework for architecture, art, and cultural history, extending the exhibition beyond the gallery into a broader interdisciplinary conversation.

Supporting international entrepreneurs through Nevis company formation and offshore bank account opening within 24 to 48 hours
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, July 23 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trinity Group has entered into a strategic collaboration with Hamilton Reserve Bank to support international entrepreneurs and businesses, establishing a Nevis International Business Company (IBC) with a streamlined pathway from company formation to international banking. Through the collaboration, eligible clients may establish an offshore bank account within 24 to 48 hours, subject to Hamilton Reserve Bank's independent onboarding procedures, customer due diligence and applicable regulatory requirements.
Nevis has earned international recognition as a respected jurisdiction for cross-border business, supported by its English common law heritage, modern corporate legislation and established international business environment. Increasingly, entrepreneurs and international businesses are choosing Nevis not only for company incorporation, but also for the integrated professional support that facilitates international business, including corporate advisory and international banking.
Trinity Group serves as the lead corporate adviser throughout the incorporation process, helping entrepreneurs and businesses establish Nevis corporate structures aligned with their commercial objectives. Combining international corporate advisory expertise with practical guidance on incorporation and ongoing administration, the firm supports clients at every stage of the Nevis company formation process.

* The collaboration is neither a merger, acquisition, joint venture nor exclusive partnership. Trinity Group and Hamilton Reserve Bank remain fully independent while combining their expertise to simplify Nevis company formation and access to international banking.

MAVENIR’S CLOUD-NATIVE IMS AND VOICE SERVICES RATED VERY STRONG BY GLOBALDATA
KUALA LUMPUR, July 23 (Bernama) -- Software company Mavenir announced that its MAVcore Cloud-Native IMS and Voice Services received a Very Strong rating in GlobalData’s 2026 IMS and Voice Core: Competitive Landscape Assessment.
The rating placed Mavenir among the industry's top-rated IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and Voice Core providers alongside Nokia, ZTE, and Ericsson, according to a statement.
The report evaluated vendors across five dimensions, namely solution architecture, platform and performance, feature and application support, interoperability, and deployment experience, with MAVcore earning a Strong to Very Strong rating across all five areas.
Mavenir Executive Vice President & General Manager, IMS & RAN, Sachin Karkala said being recognised as Very Strong by GlobalData validates the investment Mavenir has made in cloud-native voice architecture.
“As operators worldwide decommission legacy networks and look to monetise voice through artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled services, Mavenir's ground-up cloud-native approach positions our customers to move faster and scale with confidence,” added Karkala.
Meanwhile, GlobalData Senior Principal Analyst, Andy Hicks said Mavenir designed its Cloud-Native IMS solution from the ground up for Voice over LTE (VoLTE) and 5G voice. The architecture, and its base of over 50 voice customers worldwide, are among the factors that earned Mavenir a Very Strong rating in this year's assessment.
Beyond the five rated dimensions, GlobalData highlighted Mavenir's AI roadmap stating Mavenir is focused on in-call AI services, including simultaneous translation, agentic small and medium-sized business assistants, and transcription, targeting what GlobalData identifies as the fastest-growing voice service opportunity.
The company’s signalling security, spam detection, and fraud management capabilities add a further layer of differentiation and a foundation for value-added services.
As voice calling evolves from human-to-human interaction to human-to-agent interaction, Mavenir will continue to invest in cloud-native architecture and AI-enabled services that help operators modernise their voice networks and capture new sources of revenue.
