I simply don’t see the value here. At the cost of these systems its inevitable that you hire at least one person full time to manage your rack infra, and that person would likely prefer the customizability of commodity hardware.
Source: I run a startup that recently did our datacenter buildout. At no point were we at all interested in a single integrated vendor.
