Except The Register, unless their article is the meta-joke:
> We’ve also seen reports that Infinidash has a role in the Internet of Things.
>> Just did it out first integration of IoT Kettle Manager -> AWS Infinidash -> Firehose. At scale, can now boil the ocean on demand with full observability!
Of course there will be the ones who are taken by the hype and stop short of actually caring about what that is beyond "buzzword tech". But the examples chosen for the article are the joke.
- egypturnash 5y ago*New mystery AWS product 'Infinidash' goes viral — despite being entirely fictional* Reg chats to developer whose joke that mere mention of a new prod would appear in job ads came true and spawned books, songs, forks, cryptocoin, and more - the title and strapline of the article you are quoting
- buran77 5y agoI'm not saying The Register doesn't know the tech is a joke, just that they don't seem to realize everyone else knows too and they're in on it. The article takes some people's obviously humorous quotes as evidence that they're falling for the scam. So even an obviously remark like "can now boil the ocean on demand with full observability!" is taken seriously as "reports that Infinidash has a role in the Internet of Things".
