We did, you and I cover how QR is going to play a critical role in the cloud storage offering, but Microsoft strength is a hybrid, right? And then we have a lot of customers who use hybrid stories that, you know, both on-prem and cloud. And then I would think that QR is also working with the Azure local team. Yeah, that is, that's pure strength as well, right? As our start came through the data center and we've been helping our customers adopt cloud and operate in a hybrid fashion. And yeah, it's great. You bring up Azure local. So we've been supporting Azure local actually, even back to the days when it was called Azure Nexus or Azure for operators in really, really large scale environment, supporting telcos. We were the disaggregated storage option for that with our flash rate product. That's now come together. That product is now Azure local rack scale and the Azure local node scale that most of our enterprise customers are going to adopt recently announced support and public preview for external storage, pure storage, excited to be one of the vendors in that, in that mix. Again, the interest level from our customers has been incredibly high in this because Azure local window server, Hyper-V, these technologies are all in their accounts already. They're very mature. They have teams that know how to operate them. And so being able to bring that stack that they're really familiar with together with pure storage products that they have and they trust and can scale with, I think we're going to see adoption just absolutely spike for Azure local. And then we see that with the connection you guys have built with Azure arc and your hybrid capabilities. I think it's a perfect play right now. Yeah, that's a good point. Whenever we engage with the customer, I have to remind myself about not just like mentioning about the pure cloud capabilities, but that, you know, the hybrid stories is the thing that very resonating very well with the customer. Well, again, as a peer, this is why we, we talked to our customers about the enterprise data cloud as a virtual pool of storage and pure as endpoints there, but where that, where that pool of storage extends to from your data center in the cloud, moving backwards and forwards, that's, that's exactly what we want to see customers adopting. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
