Promoc and Harvester HCI taking over the space would be a dream come true for me

Shelfware meaning something bought but never used, apparently.

The abstraction of the compute, storage, and networking that cloud providers is really useful for devs. Using that only to rent hardware is extremely cost prohibitive for some, not to mention the risk of renting stuff for critical workloads.

Here comes the other part of our work, which is to take these 10,000 customers or a big chunk of them who have bought the vision of a private cloud on-prem and working with them to enable them to deploy it and operate it successfully on their infrastructure and on-prem,”

What kind of fever-dream is this?
