I am confused. How do you own a cloud you pay for as a service.
- liamkinne 8mo agoYou buy the physical rack and install it in your data centre. It is your property.
- nz 8mo agoSo you are telling me that the cloud is not actually made of water-vapor?
- toast0 8mo agoI don't know how it works for Oxide, but this isn't a new concept, IBM has been doing it since the 1950s. Own the mainframe, pay for the required service contract.

- kev507 8mo agoimportantly, you don't pay for it as a service, you buy it and it's yours. like buying a cloud in a box, instead of having to build it yourself with various server, storage, networking, and software vendors it all comes ready to use.
- kevinrineer 8mo agoAnd, interestingly for Oxide, rack scale solutions from HW vendors might not be suited for your company's workload. Their solution isn't all-in on AI, from what I understand.
- sudomateo 8mo agoWhat led you to believe that this is a SaaS offering? It's not.
