DCW 2025, AI Infrastructure, and Mr. Wonderful
Hey friends,
Data Center World wrapped up — and it was electric out in Washington, D.C.
You know I can’t resist a good post from the field. If you missed the madness, here’s a quick recap straight from the show floor:
Speaking of power… At DCW, we got real about what’s ahead. My panel tackled one of the biggest issues in AI infrastructure today: scaling sustainably. (A few highlights made it into this Data Center Knowledge write-up.)
Also — yes, I had an exclusive chat with Kevin O’Leary. Curious what he said? Read the recap here
1. The State of GPU-as-a-Service 2025: Out Now
We've just released our most important research to date: State of GPUaaS 2025 — and let me tell you, it’s more than just a market report.
It’s a full breakdown of real-world GPU pricing, provider strategies, hidden costs, and the truth behind cloud vs bare metal vs marketplaces.
We analyzed 38 global providers, talked to engineers, sales teams, and ran live pricing benchmarks on real H100 clusters.
- Why hyperscalers are losing deals
- Who’s winning with cost transparency
- What MLOps features make or break deployments
- And how your data center can actually become an AI cloud

It’s free. Just fill out the form, and I promise, it’ll change how you think about AI infra in 2025.
2. AI Infrastructure Isn’t Evolving — It’s Revolting
And no, I don’t mean the GPUs are unionizing (yet). But check this piece from RCR Wireless: The AI Infra Revolution
It captures exactly why platforms like ours exist. The world doesn’t just need more compute. It needs better, faster, smarter delivery — integrated stacks, locality, sustainability, and yes… transparency.
Let’s keep building. And scaling. And questioning everything.
Until next time
Stay tuned, stay curious, and stay excited!
Best,
