Hey, I'm the guy behind GetDeploying. To be clear:

This is a side project and the vast majority of companies were added by me without being paid for it. I now charge to get listed or add a banner because the site takes too much time for me to maintain.

And totally agree, AMD GPUs are not covered enough. Happy to list your company at no cost to help me fix that. Feel free to email me if interested.

Hey, thanks for the response. I'm currently not interested in being listed on a paid site like this, even if the offer is free. I don't think that is what the community needs.

What good is any of this other than driving clicks for your benefit? If I'm going to get any traffic from your site, it is all going to be driven by people just searching or quoting comparisons, not actual sales.

For example, right now, you list another MI300x provider. Right at the top of the page you parrot their bogus claims about 20k GPUs by 2024. They don't have pricing, it is just "contact us". "Based on our records, XXX has at least 2 data center locations around the world"... yet it lists both of them in the US, not "around the world". I could go on and on, but what I know is that I don't want to be associated with something like this.

Sorry for the truth bomb, but if it is taking too much time for you to maintain, you should shut it down or find someone else willing to maintain it properly. Having incomplete and bogus data isn't helpful for anyone.

Thanks for the feedback. There's certainly room for improvement.
I saw your original reply, good editing.
