Yeah.

There's a lot of utilities out there and tools that allow you to choose your foundation model being run as a service, but none of them manage the interconnection of it.

It's all going over the internet.

So imagine if you could pair that with automated private interconnectivity to those same resources that you'd pick, the hypothetical example that would let you go to CoreWeave or this or Nebius, but imagine the ability to go and have that privately without having to do that manually every time.

And being able to do that via

intent-based agentic workflow through MCP.

Like saying in some prompt, I want to connect to AWS and Azure out of this region and I want to connect to my locations at Equinix in Dallas and in Silicon Valley.

Type it in and it's done.

Imagine that, right?

Because right now, you want to go get this done.

Part of the problem is that

Does a storage guy really need to know BGP?

Or does he want to know BGP to make all the stuff I'm talking about before work?

That's been kind of the challenge.

Is that, okay, well, oh, so you want to do what used to be Blue XP in a NetApp console, right?

You want to have your NetApp send this volume, a copy to this VCP, this FSXN in this region, and I want it to send it to this ANF in this region.

Okay, sounds easy enough, but in order to get that done, I've got to go fire up the FSXN.

I've got to go fire up the NF, and I've got to do all the security stuff.

Then I've got to go fire up the Direct Connect.

I've got to go to Equinix Fabric.
