Oxide Computer Company and Carahsoft Partner to Bring On-Premise Cloud Computing to the Public Sector

EMERYVILLE, Calif. and RESTON, Va., Sept. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Oxide Computer Company, the on-premise cloud computing company, and Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider^®, today announced a partnership. Carahsoft will act as Oxide’s Master Government Aggregator^®, to make the Oxide Cloud Computer available to Public Sector customers through Carahsoft’s reseller partners and NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V and OMNIA Partners contracts.

“Public Sector organizations are seeking new options to accelerate modernization of their IT infrastructure while maintaining control over their data and operations inside environments they own,” said Steve Tuck, Co-Founder and CEO at Oxide. “By partnering with Carahsoft, we can deliver the power of cloud computing to Federal, State and Local Governments through their established procurement channels.”

Oxide is the industry’s first rack-scale system that integrates advanced computing hardware and cloud control plane software to deliver cloud computing within an organization’s own data center or colocation facility. Oxide provides a vertically integrated system, operational within hours of delivery. The Cloud Computer provides elastic compute, storage and networking through first-class APIs, CLI and a web console, enabling developers and cloud infrastructure teams to provision compute in a self-service fashion rather than reacting to IT tickets or leaning on manual configuration scripts.

Oxide’s Cloud Computer provides critical Government capabilities including hardware root of trust, an auditable open source software stack and eliinates dependency on third-party virtualization licensing. The platform supports workloads spanning Agentic AI, High-Performance Computing, classified data processing and general-purpose IT operations.

“With the addition of Oxide to our portfolio, we are expanding our ability to support agencies seeking to deploy modern, cloud-native infrastructure on premise,” said Erica Raymond, Director for Infrastructure Solutions at Carahsoft. “Oxide’s approach to rack-scale computing fills a critical gap for Government customers who need the agility of cloud but require data sovereignty and operational control that only owned infrastructure can provide. Together with our reseller partners, we look forward to helping agencies across the Public Sector accelerate their IT modernization efforts.”

Oxide’s solutions are available through Carahsoft’s SEWP V contracts NNG15SC03B and NNG15SC27B and OMNIA Partners Contract #R240303. For more information, contact the Carahsoft team at (888) 964-7379 or [email protected].
