alt Hacker NewsI asked an Apple (via a sales rep who visited our company to showcase in internal iPad healthcare app) to please do this for iCloud when iCloud Drive was in-development. We would have easily paid $50,000 for a rack-able Mac Pro you could point "managed" devices at.
Apple simply cannot comprehend the ask.

They had Xserve, it didn't sell well enough to survive.

Apple knows the market demand for this type of device.
You may have paid $50,000 for it, but you’re only one customer. At Apple scale they need to focus their finite resources on the products that serve the largest market demand.
$50,000 rack mount servers are not a large demand.
