(VP of Eng here) I filled out their sales form last year and never heard from them. We're currently spending $900k/year on AWS, and they didn't even acknowledge my request. crazy stuff.
We had the opposite experience. We contacted them through their form this year and they were happy to discuss with us even when we communicated from the beginning we wouldn't be customer in the short to medium term and even for single rack systems.
Hit me up @oxidecomputer.com
tbf they are probably looking for customers with cloud spend ending in 'm'
If your CIO is not ideologically averse on paying people instead of paying jeff bezos, you can save money even buying dell.
Logical.<p>They probably will be aquihired by someone like Broadcom.
I can't think of an outcome that would be more odious to Steve Tuck and Brian Cantrill. Brian in particular still talks about the soul-crushing experience of Oracle's hostile takeover of Sun Microsystems.
I expect the majority of Oxide's customers are actively trying to escape Broadcom's VMWare hell. Can't see how something like that would make sense.
It makes sense for Broadcom to remove that avenue of escape, and it makes sense for Oxide's investors to charge a premium to Broadcom, and materialize their returns.<p>The customers will have to deal with it, of course. At least they bought physical systems instead of renting them, so they can use them until they're obsolete.
Makes sense for Broadcom.
I doubt that. Oxide was founded by a bunch of ex-Sun people who have already been burned by the Oracle acquisition. If you read through what they say, their company values, and how they act, it's pretty clear their intent is to grow a sustainable long-term business and they're not looking for an exit.
Say you are spending $1M. Round up. Or even 0.9M. Their sales might only return inquiries with cloud costs ending in M.
I will implicitly trust anything Jessie Frazelle works on. Rare combination of taste, skill, and passion.
I've seen posts about Oxide for years now, but do they actually ship hardware? I've never seen images, or posts about companies with their new Oxide Thingamajig™
We've shipped kind of a lot of hardware at this point!
The CEO of Shopify tweeted about it at one point:<p>* <a href="https://twitter.com/tobi/status/1793798092212367669" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/tobi/status/1793798092212367669</a>
as far as I can tell, yes?<p>It seems like Jane street and lawrence national laboratory are two confirmed customers.
Most of their customers wouldn't be the type to let others know.
They just raised $200M in February and $100M a year ago.
