>>from around the globe. It's the Cube with digital coverage of AWS reinvent 2020. Special coverage sponsored by AWS Global Partner Network. Hello, everyone. This is Dave Balanta. And welcome to the cubes Virtual coverage of AWS reinvent 2020 with a special focus on the A p N partner experience. I'm excited to have two great guests on the program. Fernando Castillo is the head s a p on AWS Partner Network and s A P Alliance and AWS and Stephen Jones is the general manager s a p E c to enterprise that aws Gentlemen, welcome to the Cube. Great to see you. >>I'm here. >>So guys ASAP on AWS. It's a core workload for customers. I call it the poster child for mission Critical workloads and applications. Now a lot has happened since we last talked to you guys. So So tell us it. Maybe start with Stephen. What's going on with Sapna Ws? Give us the update. >>I appreciate the question Day. Look, a lot of customers continue to migrate. These mission critical workloads State of us on a good example is the U. S. Navy right? Who moved their entire recipe landscape European workload AWS. This is a very large system of support. Over 72,000 users across 66 different navy commands. They estimate that 70 billion worth of parts and goods actually transact through the system every year. Just just massive. Right? And this this type of adoptions continued to accelerate a very rapid clip. And today, over 5000 customers now are running SFP workloads. I need to be us on there really trusting us, uh, to to manage and run these workloads. And another interesting stat here is that more than half of these customers are actually running asap, Hana, which is a safe He's flagship in memory database. >>Right, Fernando, can you add to that? >>Sure. So definitely about, you know, the customs are also SCP themselves continue to lose a dollar less to run their own offerings. Right? So think about conquer SCP platform. SCP analytics were when new offers like Hannah Cloud. In addition to that, we continue to see the P and L despondent network to grow at an accelerated pace. Today we have over 60 SNP company partners all over the world helping SFP customers s O that customers are my green. There s appeal asking CW's. They only look for reduced costs, improved performance but also toe again access to new capabilities. So innovate around their core business systems and transform their businesses. >>So for now, I wonder if I could stay with you for a minute. I mean, the numbers that Steve was putting out there, it's just massive scale. So you obviously have a lot of data. So I'm wondering when you talk to these customers, Are you discerning any common patterns that are emerging? What are some of the things that you're hearing or seeing when you analyze the data? >>Sure. So just to give a couple example right. Our biggest customers are doing complete ASAP. Transformations on Toe s four Hana. Their chance they're going to these new S a p r p code nine All customers have immediate needs, and they're taking their existing assets to AWS, so looking to reduce costs and improve performance, but also to sell them apart for innovation. This innovation is something that operation or something that they can wait. They need it right now. It's they This time to innovate is now right on some of these customers saying that while s and P has nice apart. So that is a multi year process on most organizations and have a look from waiting for this just before they start innovating. So instead of that, they focus on bringing what they have on start innovating right away on Steve has some great stories around here, so maybe Steve can share with that. Goes with that? >>Yeah, that'd be great, Steve. >>Yeah. Look, I think a good example here on and Fernando touched it, touched on it. Well, right. So customers coming from all kind of different places in their journey aws as it relates to this this critical workload and some are looking to really reap the benefits of the investments they made over the last couple decades sometimes. And Vista is a really good example Here, um there a subsidiary of Cook Industries, they migrated and moved their existing S a P r P solution called E c C. To AWS. They estimate that this migration alone from an infrastructure cost savings perspective, has netted them about two million per year. Additionally, you know, they started to bring some of the other issues they were trying to solve from a business perspective, together now that they were on the on the on the business on the AWS platform. And one thing that recognizes they had different data silos, that they had been operating in an on premises world. Right? So massive factories solution and bringing all of that data together on a single platform on AWS and enriching that with the SCP data has allowed them to actually improve their forecasting supply chain processes across multiple data sources and the estimate that that is saving them additional millions per year. So again, customers are not necessarily waiting to innovate. Um, but actually moving forward now. >>All right, so I gotta ask, you don't hate me for asking this question, but but everybody talks about how great they are. Supporting s a P is It's one of the top, of course, because s a p, you know, huge player in the in the application space. So I want you guys to address how aws specifically compares Thio some of your competitors that are, you know, the hyper scaler specifically as it relates to supporting S a P workloads. What's the rial differential value that you guys bring? Maybe Steve, you could start >>Sure, you're probably getting to know us a little bit. Way don't focus a lot on competition, Aziz mentioned week We continue to see customers adopt AWS for S a p a really rapid clip. And that alone actually brings a lot of feedback back into how we consider our own service offerings as it relates to this particular workload on that, that's it. That's important signal right for what we're building. But customers do tell us the security performance availability matters, especially for this workload, which, you know, to be honest, is the backbone of many, many organizations. Right? And we understand why. And there was a study that was done recently about a. D. C. Where they found that even a single hour of unplanned downtime as a released this particular workload could cost millions. And so it's it's super important. And if you look at, um, you know, publicly available data from an average perspective, um, it has considerably less downtime than the other hyper scale is out there way. Take the performance and availability of oh, our entire global footprint and in this workload in particular, super important. >>Well, you know, that's a great point, Steve. I mean, if you got critical mission critical applications like ASAP supporting the business, that's driving revenue. It's driving productivity. The higher the value of the application, the greater the impact when it's down, I wonder, Fernando, you know, Steve said, You guys don't focus on the competition. Well, is an analyst. You know, I always focused on the competition, So I wonder if you're gonna add anything to that. >>Sure. So again, as you can imagine, multiple analyst called Space right. And, uh, everybody shares information. And analysts have agreed that Italy's clean infrastructure services, including the three quite a for CP across the globe. So we feel very humble and honor about this recognition on this encourages to continue to improve ourselves to give you a couple examples for a 10 year in a row. Italy's US evaluated as a leader in the century Gardner Magic Quadrant, right for cloud infrastructure from services. And, as you know, the measure to access right they measure very execute on complete, insufficient were the highest, both of them. Another third party, just not keep with one is icy, right? You know, technology research dreamers, you already you might know advice for famous Well, the reason they publisher s a p on infrastructure service provider lands reports long name which, basically, the analyzers providers were best suited to host s a. P s four hana workloads on more broadly s a p Hannah landscapes, you know, very large scape ASAP 100 landscapes. So they recognize it, at least for the third year in a row. And conservative right, the best class enterprise. Great infrastructure towards security performances, Steve mentioned, but also making the panic community secure. Differentiation. Andi, they posted. They mentioned it all us as a little position in quadrant for the U. S. U K France, Germany, the Nordics in Brazil. So again, really honor and humble on discontinued in court just to continue to improve. >>You know, Steve, I just wrote a piece on Cloud 2030 trying to project what the next 10 years is gonna look like in one of the I listed a lot of things, but one of the things I talked about was some of the technical factors like alternative processors, specialized networks, and you guys have have have really, always done a good job of sort of looking at purpose built, you know, stuff that that can run workloads faster. How relevant is that in the the S A P community? >>Oh, that's a great question, David. It's It's absolutely relevant. You take a look at what? What we've done over the years with nitro and how we've actually brought the ability for customers to run on environmental infrastructure but still have that integrated, uh, native cloud experience. Uh, that is absolutely applicable to Unless if you workload and we're actually able toe with that technology, bring the capability to customers to run thes mission critical workloads on instances with up to 24 terabytes of brand, albeit bare metal, but fully integrated into the AWS network fabric, >>right? I mean, a lot of people, you know, need that bare metal raw performance on, and that makes sense that you've been, you know, prioritize such an important class of workload. I'm not surprised that that I mean, the numbers that you threw out a pretty impressive eso. It's clear you're leading the charge here. Maybe you could share a little glimpse of what's coming in the future. Show us a little leg, Steve. >>Yeah, well, look, uh, we know that infrastructure is super important. Thio. Our customers and in particular the customers are running these mission critical workloads. But there's a lot of heavy lifting, uh, that that we also want to simplify. And so you've seen some indications of what we've done here over the years, uh, ice G that Fernando mentioned actually called out. AWS is differentiating here, right? So for for many years, we've actually been leading in releasing tools for customers to actually orchestrate and automate the deployment of these types of worthless so ASAP in particular. I mean, if you think about it a customer who is coming to a to a hyper scale platforms like AWS and having to learn what that means, Plus understand all the best practices from S, A, P and AWS to make that thing really shine from a performance and availability perspective, that's a heavy asked. Right? So we put a lot of work from a tooling perspective into into automating this and making this super simple not just for customers, but also partners. >>Anything you wanna chime in on that particular the partner side, Fernando. >>Sure. So this is super important for public community, right? As you can imagine, the tooling that we're bringing together toe. The market is helping the Spanish to move quicker, right? So they don't have to reinvent. They will all the time. They will just take this and move and take it and move forward. Give an example. One of our parents in New York, three hosts. Thanks for lunch. We start with Steve just reference right. They want to create work clothes in an automated way. Speeding up the delivery time. 75% corporation is every environments. So it just imagine the the impact of these eso a thing here that is important is our goal is to help customers and partners move quicker, removing any undifferentiated heavy lifting, right, Andi, that's kind of the mantra of this group. >>You know, when you think about what Doug Young was saying is in the keynote, um, the importance of partners and I've been on this kick about we've moved in this industry from products to platforms, and the next 10 years is gonna be about leveraging ecosystems. The power of many versus the resource is of a few or even one is large is a W s so so partners air critical on I wonder if you could talk toe the role that that the network partners air playing in affecting S a p customer outcomes and strategies. Maybe Steve, you could take that first. >>Yeah, but look, we recognize that the migration on the management of these systems it's complex, right? And for years, we've invested in a global community of partners many partners who have been fundamental to s a p customer success over over a couple decades, Right? And so, um, that there are some nuances that that need to be realized when it comes to running ASAP on on a hyper scale platforms like AWS. And so we put a lot of work into making sure these partners are equipped to ensure customers have have a really good experience. And I mean, in a recent conversation I had with a CEO of a large, uh, CPG company, he told me he reflected that the partners really are the glue. That kind of brings it all together for them. And, uh, you know, just to share something with you today, our partners, our partner community network for S. If he is actually helping over 90% of net new customers who are coming toe migrate as if you were close to AWS, so they're just absolutely critical. >>So, Fernando, there's the m word, the migration, you know, it's you don't want to unless you have to, but people have to move to the cloud. So So what can you add to this conversation? >>Sure, they So again, just to echo what Steve mentioned, right? Uh, migration. Super important. We have ah group of partners that are right now specializing in migration projects. And they have built migration factories. You may have seen some of them. They have been doing press releases through the whole year saying that they're part of these and their special cells they're bringing to the helping customers adopt AWS. So they go through the next, you know, very detailed process. We call them map for ASAP partners. So they have these incremental value on top of being SCP competent funds, which I referred earlier on. This group has, as mentioned, you know, show additional capability to safeguard these migrations on. Of course, we appreciate and respect and we have put investment programs for them to help them support their own customers right in those in these migrations. But because the SNP ecosystem on it. But it's not about only migrations, right? One important topic that we need technologies as you as Steve mentioned, we have these great set of partner of customers have trusted us or 5000 through a year on these, uh, these customers asking for innovation right there, asking us how come the ecosystem help us innovate faster? So these partners are using a dollars a plan off innovation, creating new solutions that are relevant for SCP. So basically helping customers modernize their business processes so you can take an example like Accenture Data Accelerator writers taking SCP information and data legs Really harm is the power of data there or the Lloyd you know, kinetic finances helping, you know, deploy Central finance, which is a key component of SCP, or customer like partners like syntax that has created our industrial i o. T. Offering that connects with the SNP core. So more and more you will see thes ecosystem partners innovating on AWS to support SNP customers. >>You know, I think that's such an important point because for for decades have been around for a while. It's the migrations air like this. Oftentimes there's forced March because maybe a vendor is not going to support it anymore. Or you're just trying to, you know, squeeze Mawr costs out of the lemon. What you guys are talking about is leveraging an ecosystem for innovation and again that ties into the themes that we're talking about about Cloud 2030 in the next decade of innovation. Let's close, guys. What can customers ASAP customers AWS customers expect from reinvent this year? Um, you know, maybe more broadly, what can they expect from A W S in the coming 12 months? Maybe, Steve, you could give us a sense, and then Fernando could bring us home. >>You bet. Look, um, this year we've really tried to focus on customer stories, right? So we've we've optimized. There's a number of sessions here agreement this year. We want customers and partners to learn from other from other customer experiences, so customers will be able to listen to Bristol Myers Squibb talk about their performance, their their experiences, Alando Newmont's and Volkswagen. And I'll be talking about kind of different places where they are on this, this journey to cloud and this innovation life cycle, right, because it really is about choice and what's right for their business. So we're pretty excited about that. >>Yeah. Nice mix of representative Industries there. I Fernando bring us home, please. >>Sure. So, again, we think about 21 in the future. Rest assured, we'll continue to invest heavily to make sure it values remains the platform innovation. Right on choice for recipe customers where a customer wants to move their existing investments on continue to add value. So what they have already done for years or goto export transformation. We're here to support their choice. Right? And we're committed to that as part of our customers Asian culture. So we're super excited about the future. And we're thankful for you to spend time with us today. >>Great, guys, Look, these are the most demanding workloads we're seeing that that rapid movement to the cloud is just gonna accelerate over the coming years. Thanks so much for coming on The Cube. Really appreciate it. >>Our pleasure. Thank >>you. All >>right. Thank you for watching everyone keep it right there from or great content. You're watching the cube aws reinvent 2020

>> Narrator: Live from the Javits Center in New York City. It's the Cube, covering the Inforum 2017. Brought to you by Infor. >> We are wrapping up the Cube's day two coverage of conference here in New York City at Inforum. My name is Rebecca Knight, along with my cohost Dave Vellante. We're joined by Dan Barnhardt. He is the Infor Vice President of Communications. Thanks so much for joining us. >> Yes, thank you for having me. Thank you for being here two days in a row. >> It's been a lot of fun. We've had a great time. So yeah, congratulations, it's been a hugely successful conference, a lot of buzz. Recap it for us, what's been most exciting for you? >> Sure, this was our second year having a forum in New York, which is our home town. I think it was a more exciting conference than last year. We unveiled some incredible development updates, led by Coleman, our AI offering, which is an incredible announcement for us, as well as Networked CloudSuites, which takes the functionality from our GT Nexus commerce network, and bakes it into our CloudSuites, the mission critical industry CloudSuites, that we offer on the Amazon Web Services cloud. Those were really exciting developments, as well as some other announcements we made with regard to product. And then, in addition to product, we had a lot of customer momentum that we shared. Last year, we had customers like Whole Foods and Travis Perkins up here. We continued the momentum with big enterprise customers making big bets on Infor, led by Koch Industries who invested more than two billion dollars this year at Infor, and are now modernizing their human resources and their financial operations with Infor CloudSuites. Moving to the cloud HR for 130,000 employees at Koch Industries which is an incredible achievement for the product, and for cloud HR. And, that's very exciting, as well as other companies like FootLocker, which were recognized with the Innovation Award for our Progress Makers Award. They're using talent science, data science to power their employees, not to power their employees, but to drive their employees towards greater productivity and greater happiness, because they've got the right people in the right fit for FootLocker, that's very exciting. And, of course, Bank of America, our Customer of the Year, which uses our HR solutions for their workforce, which obviously is exceptionally large. >> Yes, there was a great ceremony this morning, with a lot of recognition. So, let's talk a little bit more about Coleman, this was the big product announcement, really the first product in AI for Infor. Tell us a little bit about the building blocks. >> For certain. We have a couple of AI offerings now, like predictive hotel pricing, predictive demand and assortment planning in retail, but we have been building towards Coleman and what we consider the age of networked intelligence for multiple years. Since we architected Infor CloudSuite to run mission critical ERP in the cloud, we developed the capability of having data, mission critical data that really runs a business, your manufacturing, finance, distribution core functions, in the cloud on AWS, which gives us hyper-scale compute power to crunch incredible data. So, that really became possible once we moved CloudSuite in 2014. And then in 2015, we acquired GT Nexus, which is a commerce network that unites, that brings in the 80 percent of enterprise data that lies outside the four walls, among suppliers, and logistics providers, and banks. That unified that into the CloudSuite and brought that data in, and we're able to crunch that using the compute power of AWS. And then last year at Inforum, we announced the acquisition of Predictix, which is a predictive solutions for retail. And when building those, Predictix was making such groundbreaking development in the area of machine learning that they spun off a separate group called Logicblox, just to focus on machine learning. And Inforum vested heavily, we didn't talk a lot about Logicblox, but that was going to deliver a lot of the capabilities along with Amazon's developments with Lex and Alexa to enable Coleman to come to reality. So we were able then to acquire Birst. Birst is a BI program that takes, and harmonizes, the data that comes across CloudSuite and GT Nexus in a digestible form that with the machine learning power from Logicblox can power Coleman. So now we have AI that's pervasive underneath the application, making decisions, recommending advice so that people can maximize their potential at work, not have to do more menial tasks like search and gather, which McKenzie has shown can take 20 percent of your work week just looking for the information and gathering the information to make decisions. Now, you can say Coleman get me this information, and Coleman is able to return that information to you instantly, and let you make decisions, which is very, very exciting breakthrough. >> So there's a lot there. When you and I talked prior to the show, I was kind of looking for okay, what's going to be new and different, and one of the things you said was we're really going to have a focus on innovation. So, in previous Inforums it's really been about, to me anyway, we do a lot of really hard work. We're hearing a lot about acquisitions, certainly AI and Coleman, how those acquisitions come together with your, you know, what Duncan Angove calls the layer cake, you know the wedding cake stack, the strategy stack, I call it. So do you feel like you've achieved those objectives of messaging that innovation, and what's the reaction then from the customer base? >> Without a doubt. I wouldn't characterize anything that we said last year as not innovative, we announced H&L Digital, our digital transformation arm which is doing some incredible custom projects, like for the Brooklyn Nets, essentially money balling the NBA. Look forward to seeing that in next season a little bit, and then more in the season to come. Some big projects with Travis Perkins and with some other customers, care dot com, that were mentioned. But this year we're unveiling Coleman, which takes a lot of pieces, as Duncan said sort of the wedding cake, and puts them together. This has been a development for years. And now we're able to unveil it, and we've chosen to name it Coleman in honor of Katherine Coleman Johnson, one of the ladies whose life was told in the movie Hidden Figures, and she was a pioneer African-American woman in Stem, which is an important cause for us. You know, Infor years ago when we were in New Orleans unveiled the Infor Education Alliance program so that we can invest in increasing Stem education among young people, all young people with a particular focus on minorities and women to increase the ranks of underrepresented communities in the technology industry. So this, Coleman, not only pays honor to Katherine Johnson the person, but also to her mission to increase the number of people that are choosing careers in Stem, which as we have shown is the future of work for human beings. >> So talk a little bit more about Infor's commitment to increasing number to increasing, not only Stem education, but as you said increasing the number of women and minorities who go into Stem careers. >> Certainly. We, you know Pam Murphy who is our chief operating officer, this has been an incredibly important cause to her as well as Charles Phillips our CEO. We launched the Women's Infor Network, WIN, several years ago and that's had some incredible results in helping to increase the number of women at Infor. Many years ago, I think it was Google that first released their diversity report, and it drew a lot of attention to how many women and how many minorities are in technology. And they got a lot of heat, because it was about 30, 35 percent of their workforce was female, and then as other companies started rolling out their diversity report, it was a consistent number between 30 to 35 percent, and what we identified from that was not that women are not getting the jobs, it's that there aren't as many women pursuing careers in this type of field. >> Rebecca: Pipeline. >> Yes. So in order to do that, we need to provide an environment that nurtures some of the specific needs that women have, and that we're promoting education. So we formed the WIN program to do that first task, and this year on International Women's Day in early March, we were able to show some of the results that came from that, particularly in senior positions, SVP, VP, and director level positions at Infor. Some have risen 60 percent the number of women in those roles since we launched the Women's Infor Network just a couple of years ago. And then we launched the Education Alliance Program. We partnered with institutions, like CUNY the City University of New York, the New York Urban League, and universities now across the globe, we've got them in India, in Thailand and China, in South Korea to help increase the number of people who are pursuing careers in Stem. We've also sponsored PBS series and Girls Who Code, we have a hack-athon going on here at Inforum with a bunch of young people who are building, sort of, add-on apps and widgets that go to company Infor. We're investing a lot in the growth of Stem education, and the next generation. >> And by the way, those numbers that you mentioned for Google and others at around 30, 34 percent, that's much better than the industry average. They're doing quote, unquote well and still far below the 50 percent which is what you would think, you know, based on population it would be. So mainly the average is around, or the actual number's around 17 percent in the technology business, and then the other thing I would add is Amazon, I believe, was pretty forthcoming about its compensation, you know. >> Salesforce really started it, Marc Benioff. >> And they got a lot of heat for it, but it's transparency is really the starting point, right? >> It was clear really early for companies like Salesforce, and Amazon, and Google, and Infor that this was not something that we needed to create talking points about, we were going to need to effect real change. And that was going to take investment and time, and thankfully with leadership like Charles Phillips, our CEO, and Marc Benioff were making investments to help make sure that the next generation of every human, but particularly women and minorities that are underrepresented right now in technology, have those skills that will be needed in the years to come. >> Right, you have to start with a benchmark and then know where you're moving from. >> Absolutely, just like if you're starting a project to transform your business, where do you want to go and what are the steps that are going to help you get there? >> Speaking of transforming your business, this is another big trend, is digital transformation. So now that we are at nearing the end of day two of this conference, what are you hearing from customers about this jaunting, sometimes painful process that they must endure, but really they must endure it in order to stay alive and to thrive? >> Without a doubt. A disruption is happening in every industry that we're seeing, and customers across all of the industries that Infor serves, like manufacturing, healthcare, retail, distribution, they are thinking about how do we survive in the new economy, when everything is digital, when every company needs to be a technology company. And we are working with our customers to help first modernize their systems. You can't be held back by old technology, you need to move to the cloud to get the flexibility and the agility that can adapt to changing business conditions and disruptions. No longer do you have years to adapt to things, they're happening overnight, you must have flexible solutions to do that. So, we have a lot of customers. We just had a panel with Travis Perkins, and with Pilot Flying J, who was on the Cube earlier, talking about how their, and Cook Industries our primary investor now, talking about how they're re-architecting their IT infrastructure to give them that agility so they can start thinking about what sort of projects could open up new streams of revenue. How could we, you know, do something else that we never thought of, but now we have the capability to do digitally that could be the future of our business? And it's really exciting to have all the CIOs, and SVPs of technology, VPs of technology, that are here at Inforum talking about what they're doing, and how they're imagining their business. It's really incredible to get a peek at what they're doing. >> You know, we were talking to Debbie earlier. One of the interesting things that I, my takeaway is on the digital transformation, is you know, we always say digital is data and then what we talked about was the ability to traverse industry value change, not just vertically but horizontally. Amazon buying Whole Foods is a perfect example, Amazon's a content company, Apple's getting into financial services. I wonder if you could comment on your thoughts on because you're so deep into micro-verticals, and what Debbie said was well I gave a consumer package good example to a process manufacturing company. And they were like what are you talking about, and she said look, let me connect the dots and the light bulbs went off. And they said wow, we could take that CPG example and apply it, so I wonder when we talk about digital transformation, if you see or can foresee your advantage in micro-verticals as translating across those verticals. >> Without a doubt. We talk about it as adjacent innovation. And Charles points back to an example, way back from the creation of the niche in glass, and how that led to additional businesses and industries like eyeglasses and fire preparedness, and we look at it that way for certain. We dive very deep into key industries, but when we look at them holistically across and we say oh, this is happening within the retail industry, we can identify key functionality that might change the industry of disruption, not disruption, distribution. Might disrupt the distribution industry, and we can apply the lessons learned by having that industry specialization into other industries and help them realize a potential that they weren't aware of before, because we uncovered it in one place. That's happening an awful lot with what we do with retail and assortment planning and healthcare. We run 70 percent of the large hospitals in the US, and we're learning a lot from retail and how we might help hospitals move more quickly. When you are managing life and death situations, if you are planning assortment or inventory for those key supplies within a hospital, and you can make even small adjustments that can have huge impact on patient care, so that's one of the benefits of our industry-first strategy, and the adjacent innovation that we cultivate there. >> I know we're not even finished with Inforum 2017, but we must look ahead to 2018. Talk a little bit about what your goals for next year's conference are. >> For sure. You're correct, we're not finished yet with Inforum. I know everyone here is really excited about Bruno Mars who's entertaining tonight, but we are looking forward to next year's conference as well, we're already talking about some of the innovative things that we'll announce, and the customer journeys that are beginning now, which we'd like to unveil there. We are going to be moving the conference from New York, we're going to move to Washington DC in late-September, September 24th to 27th in Washington DC, which we're very excited about to let our customers, they come back every year to learn more. We had seven thousand people attending this year, we want to give them a little bit of a variety, while still making sure that they can reach, you know, with one stop from Europe and from Asia, cause customers are traveling from all over the world, but we're very excited to see the growth that would be shared. This year, for instance, if you look at the sponsors, we had our primary SI partner Avaap was platinum partner last year. In addition to Avaap this year, we were joined by Accenture, and Deloitte, Capgemini, Grant Thorton, all of whom have built Infor practices over the last 12 months because there's so much momentum over our solutions that that is a revenue opportunity for them that they want to take advantage of. >> And the momentum is just going to keep on going next year in September. So I'll see you in September. >> Yeah, thank you very much. I appreciate you guys being here with us for the third year, second year in a row in New York. >> Indeed, thank you. I'm Rebecca Knight for Dave Vellante, we will have more from Inforum 2017 in a bit.
