The release extends a recent expansion of the Claude 5.5 lineup after earlier upgrades to Opus and Sonnet. The company said Haiku 5.5 is designed for high-volume, cost-sensitive work and is its fastest model. It also said operating costs are about 75 percent lower than the prior version and adjusted pricing for Sonnet 5.5.

Netflix video does not fly in from U.S. each time, secret lies in CDN

Streaming video data does not usually travel from a distant original server each time a user presses play. Content delivery networks, or CDNs, store copies of video, images and files on distributed servers closer to users to reduce response times and spread traffic loads. Netflix runs its own Open Connect system using servers placed inside internet service provider networks or linked to exchange points. Google uses Global Cache in a similar way. CDNs help during traffic surges but do not eliminate all playback issues.

Chips&Media unveils data compression IP to cut bandwidth up to 53.5 percent

Chips&Media unveiled a data compression IP designed to ease memory bottlenecks in NPUs and said it will target the AI edge and server markets. The company said the multimedia IP, its first aimed beyond video, compresses and restores intermediate feature-map data in real time without loss, preserving inference accuracy. In tests of major vision networks, it said memory bandwidth savings were 35.2 percent for FP16, 45.7 percent for BF16 and 53.5 percent for INT8.
