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™

as far as I can tell, yes?

It seems like Jane street and lawrence national laboratory are two confirmed customers.

  • With those two names it makes more since that I haven't seen anything regarding their use. Not exactly Joe Schmoe LLC as customers.

    • Joe Schmoe LLC will probably do just fine by sticking to popular clouds. I reckon adopting Oxide Computer would pay off at much larger volumes of traffic, or if you have to do on-prem due to regulatory reasons.

      It would be nice to know more about pricing so the Enthusiast Joe can have a better idea, but it's more a boutique vibe right now.

  • I couldn't find any evidence Jane Street is a customer, only that Jane street is an investor. Do you have a source for that?

    • Bryan gave a talk in Jane Street (you can find them in their Youtube channel). In there, he clearly was talking about a production issue that was happening to the Oxide rack from inside Jane Street. So yes, I am pretty they sold a rack to Jane Street.

    • Not OP, but someone I met who worked for Jane Street said that he was pretty sure that Oxide sold to them and was their primary customer.
