Yeah, so we're part of a larger team called the Storage Transformation Group.
And, you know, it's all about helping customer get to that next-gen data center in all things, right?
Not just migration, but the whole operational aspect of it, you know, learning how to take advantage of new technologies, things like that.
So if there is some kind of question around, you know, how will the migration happen, you know, absolutely reach out to the partner, you know, that we're working with or the account team, NetApp account team, and just say, hey, we want one of these transition assessments in.
And we'll go in, we can go in and dig into the source array and, you know, pull some reports and learn about it and go in and show it back to you at a high level, show you something hopefully you haven't seen before, and also how to migrate to where we're trying to get to, right?
ONTAP 9 or SolidFire or cloud, right?
We, you know, we've been doing some of those types of assessments as well.
So a lot of our guys are, you know, cloud certified and,
you know, gurus that should be going to open stack world too.
Andrew, I'm kind of jealous.
I got nothing.
I want to come back with a fake Boston accent too.
It's true.
So, yeah, so just reach out, ask for NetApp Transition Solutions assessment, and we'll get going and turn it around in a few business days.
So, generally, they're pretty quick to deliver.
Sometimes when it's like a very large-scale migration and there might be multiple phases, right, saying, well, we have to migrate from this array first and then that array and then this third array, and, you know, what order should I do it in or, you know, how should I attack this?
then we can go, you know, in depth more than just an assessment, but doing a transition strategy.
So a lot of times, you know, the bigger customers that are trying to, you know, swap out a data center or something like that will need, you know, some more love.
And I got a lot of love to share.
I'm in Vegas.
