Correct. I work at SoftIron. We have several HyperCloud systems in production right now. SI has been shipping purpose-built storage systems for years as the root-comment suggests, but HyperCloud (which is closer to Oxide's product) has been in production systems in defense, banking, internationally for well over a year now.

Oxides biggest selling point is the API, which can be manipulated with Terraform. I see no SoftIron Terraform plugin.

We do have a Terraform plugin in active development. It's good enough that I use it every day, but in fairness it isn't released yet.

Our API is also under active development, but it is open source today:

Go bindings included, other languages are under discussion.

Your webpage is an ocean of marketing fluff and buzzwords. It's not clear that you have a product that competes with Oxide. It's not even clear how you're different than Dell or HP.

It looks like SoftIron is not shipping a rack in a single box, though.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean.

I believe our smallest configuration is 5 servers and a few switches.

See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38026306 and other related threads. Oxide's product is a rack you plug in and you're done. You don't have to rack a bunch of servers yourself and cable them.
