So we're going to talk about storage grid, right?

Storage grid?

Is that what this is?

No, HCI.

So tell us about HCI.

So most people are either unfamiliar with the term HCI or hyper-converged, or they are not familiar enough to know what it actually means.

So I would challenge one of you to give us the elevator pitch for HCI here.

Yeah, it makes sense.

So let's talk about why someone would want to do that.

Like, why would I want to do something like HCI rather than traditional storage architectures?

Would you say this also consolidates and simplifies the overall buying of the storage units?

So, I mean, so instead of having to buy separate entities for this, would HCI simplify that?

So barring your printer scanner all in one combo example, would you also say that maybe HCI could save us some space, like in terms of rack space, data center utilization, or is that something that just is not really related to this whole solution?

I've heard the term next generation data center quite a bit.

And let's go ahead and just knock that one out right now.

So give me an example of what you mean by next generation data center so that we can kind of educate our listeners about what that might be.

Okay.

So let's go back to Andrew's original question that he asked before we got over the overviews here.

So, Andrew, if you could re-ask your bespoke question because I don't remember what you said.

Are we thanking Martin Cooper for that specifically?
