How was this measured?
We put this exact question to ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity as part of the DevOps & Infrastructure Vendors in AI Answers — a directional read study, once per engine, and recorded every firm each answer named and every source it cited. Each engine is reported on its own — never averaged — because engines name different firms for the same question. Only firms tracked in the study are matched, so a firm missing here may still have been mentioned.
