The Schwarz family is so damn rich… Their city calculates everything once with them and once without, because they make every “on average” statistic useless.

give me a better duo than ‘huge company with need for compute’ and ‘too much compute forcing companies to sell CPU hours for a fee’

Sales of evs will drum up. Then in December trump\muskrat will extend it for American made evs.

The article doesn’t link it directly but I think their cloud platform is called stackit. This could be a good offering if all you need is a server capacity and a bit of monitoring but companies looking for an equivalent to things like Azure B2C or other “Cloud native” services wont find them there. Bert Hubert wrote about this a few months ago. Platforms like this are really cool but they wont sway any customers who look for fully featured services that they can use like building blocks for their applications.

Super interesting. It’s a similar story to Amazon’s: they were big enough to need their own infrastructure and ended up providing it too.

The big difference, from where I’m sitting, is Amazon has the same branding across the business and Schwarz Group doesn’t.

It’s paywalled for me.
