Welcome to Tech Beat, your daily look at the stories shaping our digital world.

Cornerstone OnDemand has built something worth watching. The workforce software company, serving one hundred forty million users across one hundred eighty six countries, deployed a multi-agent AI system called Orion AI using Amazon Bedrock. The result was a seventy eight percent reduction in database diagnosis time, turning what used to be reactive scrambling into something closer to self-managing infrastructure.

From software to the Black Sea, where drone attacks have forced a hard conversation about European defense. Commercial vessels have been sunk and two people killed along the coasts of Romania and Bulgaria. The European Union has a regional security plan on paper, but the gap between that plan and operational reality is now impossible to ignore.

And in the world of competitive engineering, Formula E has named Comsol as its official multiphysics simulation partner. The collaboration brings digital twin technology and AI-assisted modeling to electric racing, which matters beyond the track. Electric motorsport has long served as a proving ground for the battery and thermal management systems that eventually find their way into consumer vehicles.

Those are the stories driving the conversation today. Keep surfing. Tech Beat out.
