Confidential computing: from niche to mainstream
summary
Industry progress moves confidential computing from lab to deployable tech with concrete pieces: Intel TDX (VM isolation now in clouds), TDX connect (trusted PCIe device integration with Nvidia support), and tooling like Gramine plus Project Amber for uniform attestation. Customers use cases include Novartis validating rare-disease models and Proximus building sovereignty-aware clouds. Adoption hurdles are real: five years of progress, >80% of IT pros unaware, 30 Fortune 500 CSOs had two aware but two thirds sought followups, so automated confidential containers and attestation plumbing are urgent.
