“Something didn’t go as planned. Undoing changes.” That’s all the clue some Windows 11 users will get when Microsoft’s May Security Update fails to install because of insufficient free space on the EFI System Partition (ESP), leaving their systems unprotected by the dozens of patches it contained. This issue affects devices with limited free space available — typically 10MB or less — on the ESP. “On affected devices, the installation might proceed through the initial phases but fail during the reboot phase at approximately 35-36% completion,” Microsoft said in an advisory. It recommended changing a Windows registry setting to force the update, or to roll back changes and wait for a future update to fix the problem. Consultants said it was a potentially serious issue given the unexpected exposure and the time the destined-to-fail patch takes to fail to install. This is the kind of failure that keeps IT leaders up at night, said cybersecurity consultant Brian Levine, who serves as execut
For years, enterprise data conversations centered on platforms. Which warehouse? Which lakehouse? Which cloud? In my recent Forbes pieces, “Beyond The Enterprise Data Platform: Why Ecosystems Win” and “How ERP Data Fits Into The Enterprise Data Ecosystem,” I argued that the more important question is no longer which platform wins. It is how the enterprise designs the ecosystem around data, applications, workflows, and governance. That question is becoming more urgent because AI agents are starting to act on enterprise data, not just analyze it. They are recommending actions, triggering workflows, engaging customers, and influencing decisions at a speed where manual review cannot be the only control. That changes the role of data management. Clean, governed, and trusted data is no longer a back-office requirement. It determines whether artificial intelligence can operate within the business without creating more risk than value. That is the lens for Informatica World 2026. The event sho
