Everpure’s AI Strategy Is Almost Purely Based On Nvidia

A storage vendor has announced that its artificial intelligence strategy centers heavily on partnerships with one dominant chip manufacturer. The vendor's leadership stated that while they work with other GPU providers, their product development and feature targeting are primarily driven by their deep partnership with this dominant player, though they claim most of their solutions can be adapted to work on other platforms. This matters because the vendor has announced price increases due to component shortages, raising questions about whether relying so heavily on one expensive and hard-to-procure supplier is sustainable. The vendor's executives justified the approach by arguing that customers are currently more focused on achieving return on investment and reaching results quickly rather than seeking alternatives, and that the dominant chip manufacturer's effectiveness at delivering solutions and getting customers to results explains their market position.
