Humans invented software to free ourselves from manual work.

Somehow, we still waste billions of hours clicking across websites.

Today, @joinkaizen launches to fulfill that original promise.

Announcing our $4M raise from @8VC and the public launch of the Kaizen platform.

The product trio is merging.

And it's not just because of AI.

We're in Barcelona for #mwc24 Mobile World Congress 2024! Stop by Booth *7G16* to say hello! While you're there, you can meet Lucas Roh, our Founder & CEO, Alex Bordei @axbrd, our VP of Product, and Sona Baghdasaryan @SonaBaghda, our Sr. Mktg Specialist!

Let's talk automation!

[Trent Blakely @TrentBlakely2]

@MetalSoftCloud does enterprise software for orchestrating data center hardware.

[MetalSoft @MetalSoftCloud]

How do YOU decide where to run your workloads? Public cloud vs. On-prem? Let's flip the script. What if you could have your cake and eat it, too? What if the tradeoffs between those options were no longer as big?

Game changer for devs needing access to their own infrastructure: servers, storage, and network, all in a single interface.

[MetalSoft @MetalSoftCloud]

We sit between your data center hardware and your applications, IaaS, and PaaS. We turn that hardware into a cloud, fully consumable by your developers via API, UI, Terraform, or as part of your CI/CD pipeline (with Ansible by Red Hat, perhaps?)

To me this is definitely one of the coolest things about @MetalSoftCloud - it does firmware upgrades while you sleep.

[MetalSoft @MetalSoftCloud]

Firmware management is an essential aspect of data center operations, playing a critical role in ensuring that hardware systems, such as servers, switches, and storage devices, perform optimally and securely.

Product Market Fit is like MVP, in that both terms get mis-used and abused. https://t.co/ESG5bAWNKm

@TrippDinger @katystoll Yeah, I immediately thought it was Hershey's too. It's actually R. M. Palmer.

Why don't more teams use bare metal infra?

[MetalSoft @MetalSoftCloud]

Historically, the cloud has mostly relied on virtual machines, but several factors are driving renewed interest in bare metal. These include:

✔️Stronger security posture for multi-tenant needs,
✔️Direct access to GPUs and other hardware resources...

[Trent Blakely @TrentBlakely2]

Looking forward to the recording for this one!

[MetalSoft @MetalSoftCloud]

Exciting times at @bigdataweek! Our VP of Product, Alex Bordei, took the stage to showcase @MetalSoftCloud's commitment to empowering operators of bare metal infrastructure to craft adaptive and cost-effective infrastructure solutions for private Large Language Models (LLMs).

Will this produce a net gain or make more people too dumb to get by without it?

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

I hear a lot of people use these terms as if they are basically the same. I confess, I used to be one of those people. 🥲

[MetalSoft @MetalSoftCloud]

In the modern landscape, where technology intertwines with business at every juncture, orchestration emerges as a critical enabler of efficiency and success. Imagine a team deploying complex IT infrastructure, a task that involves a series of interdependent steps.
