We are doing both hardware and software. We don’t use vendor IPMI stuff, and have instead implemented our own stack for it. You’re absolutely right!

Our thesis is that it's both a hardware and software problem! Which, as steve said, is why we're doing both. We can look at designs across the whole stack, from chips chosen, FPGA implementations, hubris management and control plane software to accomplish this goal. By doing these together, we can accomplish fundamentally different designs and tighter integration than any one of those multi-company silos can even if they tried to work together.
