Dave Littman: Bruce, you must have stories that your clients tell you about, you know, real world stories. Some of the success stories, I mean, if you want to relay any. If not, we can wait. Bruce Kornfeld: Yeah, yeah. No, I've thought. Yeah. So, you know, we sell our solution around the world. We've, you know, we've got thousands of customers in all sorts of vertical markets. I'd say a couple that come to mind that are, you know, maybe most interesting is there's a, there's a retailer, quick serve retailer, up in the Northeast called Sheetz. Folks that live up there know the brand. But yeah, they they went through a virtualization project where they they were in a world where they had different applications running on different pieces of hardware, whether maybe it was a desktop here, a small server there. So they had a massive company-wide initiative to virtualize the stores and we were part of it. So they and you know, they went with StorMagic because we were the only ones that could deliver a simple to install, simple to use and manage for the comments we were just making about management. They, they manage everything remotely obviously, but it's only two servers and that was the big thing for them is that everyone else was needing to put three servers in there. We only need two. Now's not the time to explain all the technical details of how, but it's basically a remote witness that runs anywhere and we can we have very, very high availability. We have customers that have been running for years and years and years. I was looking last night there, one of our customers telling us it's been up for eight years. It just runs. It just runs in the background. So she's used our two server solution for the simplicity of it, but it gave them the high availability they needed to now virtualize all of their in-store apps, run them on two servers and they're as happy as they can be. They keep adding stores every year to our environment. So there, you know, there's one good case study in the retail space.

Sheetz, a well-known retailer in the Northeast, partnered with StorMagic for their virtualization project. Unlike other solutions that required three servers, StorMagic's efficient design needed just two, ensuring ease of installation and management. This enabled Sheetz to seamlessly virtualize their in-store apps, ensuring high availability and performance. Pleased with the outcome, Sheetz has been progressively adding more stores to the StorMagic environment.
