- If only I was in Helsinki. This would be an interesting time to work in this area.by ksimukka
- AI cloud? I guess 189 mil will buy nvidia GPUs to host inference for Chinese models for Europeans? Is that what this is?by petcat
- Gongratulations to the team! Their solutions not only allow the data to actually stay in the EU, but are otherwise competetive as well!by welhoilija
- Excellent news for European tech stack - congrats!
- I'd love to give someone at Verda a demo of https://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/ to show them how they could actually do fast provisioning and automation. Seeing Ansible+Kubernetes+K* stuff in their jobs offering does not inspire confidence that they're innovating in building their core infra. You can't out-compete AWS or even the smaller clouds there.
If you want to see a different perspective, lmk.
by purpleidea - Verda is great! The only thing bad about Verda is that it's sold out fairly often :-) So the $189M will hopefully help with that.by nik736
- Sincere congrats to the Verda team :-)
Can someone please help me understand what their competitive advantage is, versus the likes of AWS / Azure et al, who are also available in the EU.
I love a good underdog story, but I'm not understanding the economics of it.
