Problem with creating competitive offering is F1000 are not going to take risk on you. Last thing CIO wants to remember for is someone who greenlit moving core infrastructure to product that went under. They also need to provide decent support so startup today has about 15 years before they even think of breaking into this market.
So it's got to be a major player like Microsoft who seems to not care about this market because Azure. Nutanix is there but they are all in hyperconverged meaning traditional compute/storage separated hardware would have to be thrown out. Red Hat exited in 2020. So I don't see a competitor on the horizon.

That is why I said 10 to 20 years. Unless broadcom has made the CIO (or CFO...) mad, then it is all hands on deck to replace them.. I know one company (by personal conversation with insiders, but I don't think they want to be named) replacing otherwise good tools because broadcom now owns them and the license fees are too high
