We still make fun of it.

We're really just scratching the surface, right? If you think about how big we are in relation to the opportunity or to what's out there, we really haven't started doing much in Europe and in Asia. We really haven't started dabbling in like the security space, which J-Dog's investing a ton of money into. We really haven't gotten into verticalization, which is where ServiceNow is making a big bet.

There's so much that we have yet to really lean into, and there's a ton to capture too. Right now, we're just like higher. We can't hire fast enough. There's a real world where I think we might have to look at acquiring companies or just acquiring talent in bulk, whatever the hell that means, or finding great engineers and bringing them on board faster. We need to capture the opportunity.

There's no rush to grow faster. But I don't think we're going to get that opportunity as fast as I think we can without doing some sort of acquisition or mergers or something. Our industry is very fragmented. There's a lot of very small players, 20, 30 people that are really great, like great engineers, that if we were able to join forces with, I think we could do a lot. That's really exciting.

It's a very exciting thought. The TAM is not shrinking, right? ServiceNow is a $10 billion company growing to $20 billion. Datadog is $2.5 billion, probably going to $5 billion or $6 billion in the next two, three years, I think $27 billion. Our portion of that TAM is growing as well. It's almost like an exponential, and we need to do something about finding the right team and growing the team.

What do you think about the future? What excites me? It's definitely that. It's not, and a lot of people ask me this, are you going to get into other industries? Are you going to start doing SAP? Are you going to start doing Azure? Are you going to start doing AWS? No. I think that's when you start to get diluted. That's when you get distracted.

There's still so much upside in the industries we're in that we've got to capture, and I really do think that's what we're going to end up doing. It's just going to be a ton of M&A.
