And that's what Equinix provides, right?

So when I said earlier about this cloud utopia and people not caring, it was more about the personas, right?

So your persona of your end user is the one who shouldn't care.

The persona of the storage admin or the network admin, of course, is going to have to care somewhat.

In your specific scenario, your thing that you worked on, what ended up being the fix?

So what sort of best practices or tips and tricks are you recommending for networks when they're trying to interact with either private or public cloud?

What are the best things that people can think about before even starting to get there?

Yeah.

The AI in the cloud thing is interesting because you're dealing with these GPUs, which can get very expensive very quickly.

And they may not be things that you're using all the time.

So it doesn't make a ton of sense to buy them.

So then you start thinking about your lease model, right?

Like leasing a car, leasing a brand new BMW.

And then every three years you get a brand new BMW and it's even better than the last one.

And that's kind of the way you would handle a GPU here because if you're not going to keep it, right, that's the point.

So that's where you get your cloud burst use cases when you need to increase your production somehow.

You need to add extra GPUs.

Maybe there's not GPUs available because, honestly, the clouds are buying them all, right?

Does Equinix provide its own kind of neocloud solution where it's creating its own GPU as a service solution?

Well, that's the thing.
