>>How y'all doing? My name's Savannah Peterson, coming to you from Detroit, Michigan, where the cube is excited to be at Cube Con. Our guest this afternoon is a wonderfully brilliant woman who's been leading in the space for over eight years. Please welcome Gar Kapur. Gar, thanks for being with us. >>Well, thank you for having me to, It's a pleasure. Good >>To see you. So, update what's going on here? Co saw you at VMware Explorer. Yes. Welcome back to the Cube. Yes. What's, what's going on for you guys here? What's the message? What's the story >>Soupcon like I always say, it's our event, it's our audience. So, you know, Minayo, I dunno if you've been keeping track, Mani ha did reach like a billion docker downloads recently. So >>Congratulations. >>This is your tribe right here. Yes, >>It is. It is. Our >>Tribe's native infrastructure. Come on. Yes. >>You know, this audience understands us. We understand them. You know, you were asking when did we start the company? So we started in 2014, and if you see, Kubernetes was born in 2015 in all sorts of ways. So we kind of literally grew up together along with the Kubernetes journey. So all the decisions that we took were just, you know, making sure that we addressed the Kubernetes and the cloud native audiences, the first class citizens when it comes to storage. So I think that has been very instrumental in leading us up to the point where we have reached a billion docker downloads and we are the most loved object storage out >>There. So, So do you like your younger brother Kubernetes? Or not? Is this is It's a family that gets along. >>It does get along. I think in, in Kubernetes space, what we are seeing from customer standpoint as well, right? They're warming up to Kubernetes and you know, they are using Kubernetes as a framework to deploy anything at scale. And especially when you're, you know, offering storage as a service to your, whether it is for your internal audience or to the external audience, Kubernetes becomes extremely instrumental because it makes Multitenancy extremely easy. It makes, you know, access control points extremely easy for different user sets and so on. Yeah. So Kubernetes is definitely the way to go. I think enterprises need to just have little bit more skill set when it comes to Kubernetes overall, because I think there are still little bit areas in which they need to invest in, but I think this is the right direction, This is the right way. If you, if you want multi-tenant, you need Kubernetes for compute, you need Kubernetes for storage. So >>You guys hit an interesting spot here with Kubernetes. You have a product that targets builders. Yes. But also it's a service that's consumed. >>Yes. Yes. >>How do you see those two lanes shaping out as the world starts to grow, the ecosystems growing, You've got products for builders and products for people who are developers consuming services. How do you see that shaking out? Is just, is there intersections there? There is. You seem to be hitting that. >>There is. There is definitely an intersection. And I think it's getting merged because a lot of these users are the ones who dictate what kind of stack they want as part of their application ecosystem overall, right? So that is where, when an application, for example, in the big data workloads, right? They tell their IT or their storage department, this is the S3 compatible storage that they want their applications to run on or sit on. So the bridges definitely like becoming very narrow in that way from builders versus the service consumers overall. And I think, you know, at the end of the day, people need to get their job done from application users perspective. They want to just get in and get out. They don't want to deal with the underlying complexity when it comes to storage or any of the framework, right? So I think what we enable is for the builders to make sure they have extremely easy, simple, high performance software service that they can offer it to their customers, which is as three compatible. So now they can take their applications wherever they need to go, whether it is edge, whether it is on-prem, whether it is any of the public cloud, wherever you need to be, go be with it. With >>Mei, I mean, I wanna get your thoughts on a really big trend that's happening now. That's right. In your area of expertise. That is people are realizing that, hey, I don't necessarily need AWS S3 for storage. I gotta do my own storage or build my own. So there's a cost slash value for commodity storage. Yes. When does a company just dive to what to do there? Do they do their own? You see, CloudFlare, you seeing Wasabi, other companies? Yes. Merging. You guys are here. Yeah, yeah. Common services then there's a differentiator in the cloud. What's the, what's this all about? >>Yeah, so there are a couple of things going on in this space, right? So firstly, I think cloud model is the way to go. And what, what we mean by cloud is not public cloud, it's the cloud operating model overall, right? You need to build the applications the correct way so that they can consume cloud native infrastructure correctly. So I think that is what is going on. And secondly, I think cloud is great for your burst workloads. It's all about productivity. It's all about getting your applications to the market as fast as you can. And that is where of course, MIN IO comes into play when you know you can develop your applications natively on something like mania. And when, when you take it to production, it's very easy no matter where you go. And thirdly, I think when it comes to the cost perspective, you know, what we offer to the customers is predictability of the cost and no surprise in the builds when it comes, which is extremely important to like a CFO of a company because everyone knows that cloud is not the cheapest place to run your sustainable workloads. And there is unpredictability element involved because, you know, people leave their buckets on, people leave their compute nodes on it, it happens all the time. So I think if you take that uncertainty out of it and have more predictability around it, I think that is, that is where the true value lies. >>You're really hitting on a theme that we've been hearing a lot on the cube today, which is standardization, predictability. Yes. We, everyone always wants to move fast, but I think we're actually stepping away from that Mark Zuckerberg parity, move fast and break things and let's move fast, but know how much it's gonna cost and also decrease the complexity. Drugs >>Don't things. >>Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. And try, you know, minimize the collateral damage when Yeah. I, I love that you're enabling folks like that. How is, I'm curious because I see that your background, you have a PhD in philosophy, so we don't always see philosophy and DevOps and Kubernetes in the same conversation. Yeah. So how does this translate into your leadership within your team and the, And Min i's culture, >>So it's PhD in financial management and financial economics. So that is where my specialization lies. And I think after that I came to Bay Area. So once you're in Bay Area, you cannot escape technology. It is >>To you, >>It is just the way things are. You cannot escape startups, you cannot escape technology overall. So that's how I got introduced to it. And yeah, that it has been a great journey so far. And from the culture standpoint of view, you know, I always tell like if I can learn technology, anyone can learn technology. So what we look for is the right attitude, the right kind of, you know, passion to learn is what is most important in this world if you want to succeed. And that's what I tell everyone who joins the, who joins win I, two months, three months, you'll be up and going. I, I'm not too worried about it. >>But pet pedigree doesn't always play into it because no, the changing technology you could level up. So for sure you get into those and be contributing. >>I think one of the reasons why we have been successful the way we have been successful with storage is because we've not hired storage experts. Because they come with their own legacy and mindset of how to build things. And we are like, and we always came from a point of view, we are not a storage company. We are a data company and we want to be close to the data. So when you come to that mindset, you build a product directly attacking data, not just like, you know, in traditional appliance world and so on, so forth. So I think those things have been very instrumental in terms of getting the right people on board, making sure that they're very aligned with how we do things and you know, the dnf, the company's, >>That's for passion and that's actually counterintuitive, but it's makes sense. Yes. In new markets it doesn't always seem to take the boiler plate. Yes. Skill set or person. No, we're doing journalism, but we don't hire journalists. No, >>I mean you gotta be, It's adventurers. It is. It's curious. >>Exactly. Exactly. Yeah, I, yeah, I think also, you know, for you to disrupt any space, you cannot approach it from how they approach the problem. You need to completely turn the tables upside down as they say, right? You need to disrupt it and have the surprise element. And I think that is what always makes a technology very special. You cannot follow the path that others have followed. You need to come from a different space, different mindset altogether. So that is where it's important that you, like you said, adventurous are the people >>That that is for sure. Talk to us about the company. Are you growing scaling? How do people find out more? >>Oh yeah, for sure. So people can find out more by visiting our website. Min dot i, we are growing. We just closed last year, end of last year we closed our CDC round unicorn valuation and so on, so forth. So >>She says unicorn valuation, so casually, I just wanna point that out, that, that, that, that's funny. Like a true strong female leader. I love that. I >>Love that. Thank you. Yes. So in terms of, you know, in terms of growth and scalability, we are growing the team. We are, you know, onboarding more commercial customers to the platform. So yeah, it's growth all across growth from the community standpoint, growth from commercial number standpoint. So congratulations. Yeah, thank you. >>Yeah, that's very exciting. Grma, thank you so much for being, >>Being with us. Thank you for >>Having me. Always. Thanks for hanging out and to all of you, thank you so much for tuning into the Cube, especially for this exciting edition for all of us here in Detroit, Michigan, where we're coming to you from Cuban. See you back here in a little bit.

>>Hey, welcome back everyone. Through the cubes coverage of VMware Explorer, 22, I'm John Fett, Dave ante, formerly world, our 12th year extracting the signal from the noise. A lot of great guests. It's very vibrant right here. The floor's great. The expo halls booming, the keynotes went great. We just had a keynote announce. So our next first guest here on day one is car Capor C co-founder and COO min IO. Welcome to the cube. Thanks for joining us. >>Thank you for having >>Me. You're also angel investor of variety of companies of Q alumnis and been in the valley for a long time. Thanks for coming on sharing. What's going on. So, first of all, obviously VMware still on the wave. They've always been relevant and they've always been part of it. Yes. But as that's changing a lot's going on security data's big conversation. Yeah. And now with their multi-cloud we call super cloud. But their multi-cloud it's it's about hyperscaler participation. Yes. Yes. Cloud universal. Yes. It's clear that VMware has to be successful in every cloud. Okay. And that's really important. And storage is one of it. You guys do that? So talk about how you guys relate with min IO, the vision, how that connects with what's happening here. >>Yeah. So like you already said, right? Most of the enterprises are become data enterprises in itself and storage is a foundation layer of how, and you do need a system that is simple, scalable, and high perform it at scale. Right? So that's where min IO fits into the picture. And we are software defined, open source. So, you know, like VMware has traditionally been focused on enterprise it, but that world is fast changing. They are making a move in terms, developer first approach and min IO, because it's open source. It's simple enough to start, get, start deploying object storage and cloud native applications on top. So that's where we come in. We have around 1.3 million DACA downloads a day. So we own the developer market overall. And that is where I feel the partnership with VMware as they are coming into multi-cloud on their own min IO is a foundational layer. >>So just to elaborate on it, whenever you talk about multi-cloud, there are two pieces to it. One is the compute side and one is on the storage side. So compute Kubernetes takes care of the compute sites. Once you containerize an application, you can deploy it any cloud, but the data has gravity and all the clouds that you see AWS, your Google cloud, they're inherently incompatible with each other. So you need a consistent storage layer with industry standard APIs that you can just deploy it around with your application without a single line of code change. So that's what we >>Do. Oh, so you got a great value proposition, love the story. So just kind of connect on something. So we heard the keynote today. We gotta win the developers. They didn't say that, but they said, they said that they have the ops lockdown, but DevOps is now the new developer. Yes. We've been covering a lot of the poop coupon as you know, and shifting left everyone's in the C I C D pipeline. So developers are driving all the action and it has to be self-service. Absolutely. It has to be high velocity. Can't be slow. Yes. Gotta be fast. So that sounds like you're winning that piece. >>Yes. Yes. And I think more than that, what is most important is it needs to be simple. It needs to get your job done in a very simple and efficient way. And I think that is very important to the developers overall. They don't like complex appliances or complex piece of software. They just want to get their job done and move on the next thing in order to build their application and deploy it successfully. So whatever you do, it needs to be very simple. And of course, you know, it needs to be feature rich and high performant and whatnot that comes with the, with the flow in itself. But I think simplicity is what wins, the developers, hearts and minds overall. >>So object storage always been simple, get put right. Pretty simple, you know, paradigm. Yes. But it was sort of the backwater before, you know, Amazon, you know, launched. Yes. You know, it's cloud. How have you seen object evolve? You mentioned performance. So I presume yes. Yes. You're not just for cheap and deep you're for cheap bin performance. So you could describe that a little bit if you would, >>For, for sure. Like you mentioned, right. When AWS was launched, S3 was the foundation layer. They launched S3 first and then came everything else around it. So object storage is the foundation of any cloud that you go with. And over a period of time, when we started the company back in 20 end of 2014, beginning 2015, it was all about cheap and deep storage. You know, you just get, put it into one basket, but over years, if you see, because the scale of data has increased quite a bit, new applications have emerged as well. That require high performance. That is where we partnered very closely with Intel early on. And I have to give it to them. Intel was the one who convinced us that you need to do high performance. You need to optimize your software with all the AVX five, 12 instruction set and so on. >>So we partnered very closely with them and we were the first one to come up with, you know, you need high performance, object storage and that in collaboration with Intel. So that's something that we take a lot of pride in, in terms of being the leader in that direction of bringing high performance object storage to the market, especially for big data workloads, AI ML, workloads, they're all object first, like even, you know, new age applications like snowflake and data bricks, they are not built on sand or file system. Right. They're all built on object storage rates. So that's where the, you need >>Performance. And I think the, I think the data bricks, snowflake examples. Good. And then you mentioned in 2014, when you started yes. At that time, big data was Hudu and you know, data, legs, data swamp. Yes. Yes. But the ones that were successful, the ones who optimize had the right bets, like you guys. Yeah. Now we're in an era. Okay. I gotta deploy this. So you got great downloads and update from developers. Now we see ops struggling to keep up yes. With the velocity of the development cycle. Yes. And with DevOps driving the cloud native yeah. Security data ops becomes important. Okay. Exactly. Security and data. A lot with storage going on there. Yes. How do you guys see that emerging? Cuz that becomes a lot of the conversations now in the architecture of the ops teams. I want to be supportive in enablement of dev. Yes. Yes. Do you guys target that world too? Or >>Yeah, we, we do target that. So the good thing about object storage is that if you look at the architecture in itself, it's very granular in terms of the controls that it can give to the end user. Right? So you can really customize in terms of, you know, what objects need to be accessible to whom what kind of policies you need to implement on the bucket level, what kind of access controls and provisions that you need to do. And especially like with ransomware attacks and what not, you can enable immutability and so on, so forth. So that's an important part of it. Especially I think the ransomware threats have increased quite a bit, especially with, you know, the macro, you know, situation with war and stuff. So we see that come up quite a bit. And that's where I think, you know, the data IU immutability, the data governance and compliance becomes extremely, extremely important for organizations. So we, we are partnering very closely with a lot of big organizations just for this use case itself. >>So how's it work if I want to build some kind of multi-cloud whatever X, right. Okay. I, I can use S three APIs or Azure blah. Okay. And I, and are all different. Yes. But if I want to use min IO, what's the experience like describe how I go about doing >>So if you've had any experience working with AWS, you don't need to even change a single line of code with us. You can just bring your applications directly onto min IO and it just behaves and act same way transparently what you would've experienced in AWS. Now you can just lift and shift that application and deploy it wherever you need it to be. Whether it is Azure, blah, whether it is Google cloud or even on edge. Like what we are seeing is that data is getting generated outside of public cloud. And most of the data that, you know, the emerging trend is that we see that data gets generated on edge quite a bit, whether it is autonomous cars, whether it is IOT, manufacturing units and so on. And you cannot push all that data back in the central cloud, it's extremely expensive for bandwidth and latency reasons. >>So you need to have an environment that looks and feels exactly what you have experienced at the central cloud on the edge itself. So a lot of our use cases are also getting deployed with Mani on the edge itself, whether it is on top of VMware because of the footprint of that VMware has within all these organizations itself. So we see that emerging quite a bit as well. And then you can tier the data off to any cloud, whether it is mid IO cloud, whether it is AWS, Azure, Google cloud, and so on. So you can have like a true multi-cloud environment. >>So you would follow VMware to the edge and be the object store there, or not necessarily if it's not VMware Kubernetes or whatever. >>Exactly. Exactly. Depending on the skill set that the organization has within, within their setup, if their DevOps savvy Kubernetes is becomes a very natural choice. If they are traditional enterprise, it, VMware is an ideal choice. So yeah. >>So you're seeing a lot of edge action you're saying, and we, >>We, we have seen starting it increasing yes. And >>Are customers. So they're persisting data at the edge. Yes. Yes they >>Are. Okay. >>It's not just the femoral and >>No, they are not because what the cost of putting all the data through bandwidth is extremely expansive to push all the data in central cloud and then process it and then store it. So we see that the data gets persisted on edge cloud as well in terms of processing and only the data that you need for, for the processing through whatever application systems that you, whether it is snowflake or data, bricks and whatnot, you know, you choose what applications from compute side, you want to bring on top of storage. And that can just seamlessly and transparently work. Yeah. >>Maria, you were saying that multi-cloud yeah. Games around Kubernetes. You, yes. That Kubernetes is all about multi-cloud that's the game. >>Yes. >>Yes. Can you explain what you mean by that? Why is multi-cloud a Kubernetes game? >>So multi-cloud has two foundations to it. One is the compute side. Another one is the storage side. Compute Kubernetes makes it extremely simple to deploy any application that is containerized. Once you containerize an application, it's no longer tied to the underlying infrastructure. You can actually deploy it no matter where you go. So Kubernetes makes that task extremely easy. And from storage standpoint, you know, the state of applications need to be held somewhere. You know, it's it, people say it's cloud, but it's computer somewhere. Right? So >>Exactly it's the >>Container. It needs, it needs to be stored somewhere. So that's where, you know, storage systems like man IO come into play where you can just take the storage and deploy it wherever you go. So it gets tightly bound with application itself, just like Kubernetes is for compute. Mano is for storage. >>I saw Scott Johnson, the CEO of Docker in Palo Alto last week did yeah. The spring to his step. So to speak Dockers doing pretty well as a result, they got, you know, starting to see certifications. Yes. So people are really rallying around containers in a more open way. Yes. But that's open source, but it's the Kubernetes, that's the action. Absolutely. That the container's really there now Docker's got a great business. Yes. Right now going yes. With how they're handling. I thought they did a great job. Yeah. But the Docker's now lingua Franco, right? Yes. That's the standard. It >>Is. It is. And I think where Kubernetes really makes it easy is in terms of when the scale is involved. Right. If there are, if the scale is small, it's okay. You can, you can work around it. But Kubernetes makes it extremely simple. If you have the right Kubernetes skill, I just need to put a disclaimer around there because not lot of people are Kubernetes expert, at least not yet. So if you have the expertise, Kubernetes makes the task extremely simple, predictable and automate and automated scale. I think that is what is >>The, so take me through a use case, cuz I've talked to a lot of enterprises, multiple versions, we're lifting and shifting to the cloud, that's kind of the, you know, get started, get your feet wet. Yes. Then there's like, okay, now we're refactoring really doing some native development and they're like, we don't have a staff on Kubernetes. We do a managed service. Yeah. So how does, how do you see that evolution piece taking place? Cause that's a critical adoption component as they start figuring out their Kubernetes relationship yes. To compute yes. How they roll it out. Yes. How do you see that playing out as a big part of this growth for a customer? >>Yeah. So we see a mix, you know, we see organizations that are born within cloud. Like they have just been in mono cloud like AWS. Now they are thinking about two things, right. With the economy being, you know, and the state that it is, they're getting hurt on the margin. Some of the SaaS companies that were born in cloud. So they are now actively thinking in terms of what mode they can do to bring the cost down. So they are partnering with min IO either to, you know, be in a colocation at Equinix, like data centers or go to other clouds to optimize for the compute modes and so on. So that's one thing that we see increasingly amongst enterprise. Second thing that we see is that because you know of that whole multi-cloud and cloud does go down, it's not like it, you know, and it's been evident over the last year or so that, you know, we've seen instances where Amazon was down or Google cloud was down. So they want to make sure that the data is available across the clouds in a consistent way. So with man IO, with the active, active application and so on, you can make the data available across the cloud. So your applications, even if one cloud is down for Dr. Purposes and so on, you can, you know, transparently, move the applications to another cloud and make sure that your business is not affected. So from business continuity reasons as well, the customers are partnering with us. So like I said, it's a mix. >>So the Tansu, you know, 1.3, the application development platform that we heard in the keynotes this morning, critical, you have to have that for cross cloud services. If you don't have a consistent experience, absolutely forget it. I mean it's table stake. Absolutely. But there's a lot of chatter on Twitter. A lot of skepticism that VMware can appeal to developers, some folk John as well chimed in saying, well, you know, it's, don't forget about the op side of the equation as well. They need security and consistency. Yes. What are you seeing in the marketplace in terms of VMware, specifically their customers and, and what do you, what do you, how do you rate their chances in terms of them being able to track the developer crowd, your, your peeps? >>Yeah. So VMware has a very strong hold on enterprise. It, you know, you have to give it to them. I don't come across any organization that does not have VMware, you know, for, with 500,000 customers. Right. Right. So they have done something really right for themselves. And if you have such a strong hold on the customers, it's not that hard to make the transition over to the developer mindset as well. And that is where with VMware partnership with partners like us, they can make, make that jump happen. So we partnered with them very closely for the data persistence layer and they wanted to bring Kubernetes the VMware tan natively to the VSAN interface itself. So we partnered with them, you know, we were their design partner and in, I think, 2020 or something, and we were their launch partner for that platform service. So now through the vCenter itself, you can provision object storage as a service for the developers. So I think they are working in terms of bridging the gap and they have the right mindset. It's all about execution like this. Right. >>They gotta get it >>Justed >>And it's the execution and timing. Exactly. And if they overshoot and the, it shifts over here, you know, this comes up a lot in our conversations. I want to get your reaction to this because I think that's a really great point. You guys are a nice foundational element. Yes. For VMware that plugs into them. That makes everything kind of float for them. Yes. Now we would, we were comparing OpenStack back in the day, how that had so much promise. Yes it did. If you remember, and storage was a big part of that conversation. It, it did. But the one thing that a lot of people didn't factor in on those industry discussions was Amazon was just ramping. Yes. So assuming that the hyper scales aren't stopping, innovating. Yeah. How does the multi-cloud fit with the constant struggles? Cuz abs is not rah multi-cloud cause they're there for the cloud, but customers are using Azure for yeah. Say office productivity teams or whatever, and then they have apps over here and then I'll see on private, private. Right. So hybrids there we get hybrid. Yeah. The clouds aren't changing. Yes. How does that change the dynamics in the market? Because it's a moving train. Some say, >>You know, it is, I would not characterize it like that because you know, AWS strength is that it is AWS, but also that it is not outside of AWS. Right. So it comes with the strengths and weaknesses and same goes for Azure. And same goes for Google cloud where VMware strength lies is the enterprise customers that it has. And I think if they can bridge the gap between the developers, enterprise customers and also the cloud, I think they have a really fair shot at, you know, making sure that the organizations and enterprise have the right experiences in terms of, you know, everyone needs to innovate. There is just no nothing that you can just sit back and relax. Everyone needs to innovate. And I think the good part about VMware is the partnership ecosystem that they have developed over the years and also making sure that their partners are successful along with them. And I think that is, that is going to be a key determining factor in terms of how well and how fast they can execute because nobody can do it alone in, in the enterprise world. So I think that that would be the >>Key, well, gua you're a great guest. Thanks for coming on and sharing you for having perspective on the cube. And obviously you've been on a, this from day 1, 20 15. Yes. I mean that's early and you guys made some great moves. Thank you. In a great position with VMware. Thank you. I like how you're the connective tissue and bridge to developers without a lot of disruption. Right? Real enablement. I think the question is can the VMware customers get there? So congratulations. No, thank you. And we got a couple minutes left. Take a minute to explain what's going on with the company that you co-founded, the team what's going on. Any updates funding very well, well funded. Yeah. How many people do you have? What's new. Are you gonna hire where take a minute to give the plug, give the commercial real quick >>For sure. So we started in 24 15, so it has been like seven, eight years now that we are at it. And I think we've been just very focused with the S3 compatible object storage, being AWS S3 for rest of the world. Like we get characterized at and over the years we've been like now we, we are used 60% in fortune 500 companies in some shape or format. So in terms of the scale and growth, we couldn't be more happier. We are about to touch a billion dollar billion Docker downloads in September. So that's something that we, we are very excited about. And in terms of the funding, we closed the, our series B sometime I think end of December last year and it's a billion dollar valuation and we have great partners in Intel capital and Dell ventures and soft bank. So we couldn't be in a more happier >>Spot. You're a unicorn soon to be decor. Right. >>What's next? Yes. I think, I think what is exciting for us is that the market, we could not be more happier with how the market is coming together with our vision, what we saw in 2015 and how everything is coming together nicely with, from the, the organization, realizing that multi-cloud is the core foundation and strategy of whatever they do next and lot has been accelerated due to COVID as well. Yeah. So in those terms, I think from market and product alignment, we just couldn't be more happier. >>Yeah. We think multi-cloud hybrids here. Steady state multi-cloud is gonna be a reality. Yeah. It becomes super cloud with the new dynamics. And again, David and I were talking last night, storage, networking, compute never goes away, never goes the operating. System's still gonna be out there. Just gonna be looked different and that >>Differently. Yes. I mean, yeah. And like, you know, in 10 years from now, Kubernetes might or might not be there as the foundation for, you know, compute, but storage is something that is always going to be there. People still need to persist the data. People still need a performance data store. People still need something that can scale to hundreds and hundreds of petabytes. So we are here. You bet against data >>As indie gross head once, you know, let chaos rain, rain in the chaos. There you go. Chaos cloud is gonna be simplified. Yeah. That's what innovation looks like. That's, >>That's what it is. >>Thanks for coming on the queue. Appreciate thank you for having me more coverage here. I'm John furrier with Dave Alane. Thanks for watching. More coverage. Three days just getting started. We'll be right back.
