The best time to own your cloud was before the CPU supply crunch. The second best time is now.

ICYMI when we invested in @oxidecomputer’s Series A, here is what we wrote at that time. Our conviction today is even higher with the new Series B raise.

Mirantis is recognized as a Strong Performer in the market segment for AI-focused neo-platform-as-a-service (PaaS) providers in The Forrester Wave™: Multicloud Container Platforms, Q3 2025 🙌
2025 has been a defining year for Mirantis. As global demand for AI infrastructure surged, we made a strategic shift and evolved from a conventional cloud native platform vendor into a full-stack AI infrastructure provider, from Metal-to-Model™.
Now, as a neoPaaS provider, Mirantis delivers advanced AI infrastructure for NVIDIA Cloud Partners, Neoclouds, and Enterprises:
• Enabling NVIDIA Cloud Partners to accelerate time-to-market for next-gen AI services
• Providing a GPU monetization engine for Neoclouds
• Building internal AI factories that reduce time-to-value for enterprise AI initiatives
In the report, Mirantis received the highest score possible, 5.00, in the Roadmap, Developer Experience, and Supporting Services and Offerings criteria. This recognition underscores for us the value of what we have been building: AI infrastructure that is composable, production-ready, and ready for what comes next.

Customers are clear: they need compute infrastructure they can verify and audit. Not mystery code in proprietary firmware.When you can inspect every layer of your infrastructure, you're not just buying servers – you're running a cohesive platform you can trust AND verify.

Today, @Minio announced the launch of AIStor, designed to improve #objectstorage for #AI & #ML workloads with several new features. Read more about how the release is helping vendors deliver better object #storage in CTO @ugurtigli’s blog post below.
Introducing AIStor— the most powerful version of MinIO to date. It represents our singular focus on building the world’s best object store for AI/ML workloads.
It also reflects real-world learning from EiB+ deployments. At this scale, problems emerge that most storage vendors will never see, because they can’t operate at that scale.
The AIStor release extends the industry’s most feature-complete object store with new capabilities including S3 over RDMA, promptObject, AIHub and a completely updated Global Console.
It is time to rethink what is possible. It is time for AIStor. #aistor #ai
