Its the same format as other software - you release the actual software for free but offer managed services that work with that software way better and easier.

Yeah but those are on Google's managed cloud, and not onprem. But that recent announcement has been specifically for Google Distributed Cloud, which is huge.
My point was a bit more specific though. To elaborate, I know of a number of publicly traded companies (USD $200M+ market cap) globally which have identified use cases for onprem AI and want to implement them actively but cannot, because they lack the knowhow to work with onprem, and hiring talent to implement that is just extremely expensive. Google should simply provide it as a turnkey bundle and milk them for it.
