So, click a button, move the data. If you want it to be a replica, click a button and say "replicate." If you want to just move it, just click a button and move it. It's literally that easy. >> And so the customers can choose where to put the data.
>> Yes. >> Can they do a public version of this, or only private? >> Both, it connects to public as well https://casinoslots.sg/online-roulette. >> Okay, so that was Jenny's mention, okay cool. What's the most exciting thing for you this week going on in your world? Obviously, center of the value proposition, and Jenny used your lines so I'm sure you fed her some good sound bytes there, because she was basically taking your pitch as the headline for the keynote. Is that the highlight, or is it customer activity? >> I think the exciting thing, and Jenny did talk about it, is connecting data to AI. I'd say many clients have kind of thought of those as two different topics. We do that in three ways. We say common machine learning fabric. You can build a model in Watson, you can deploy it where your enterprise data is or vice versa. We do that with the metadata. You create business or technical metadata on-premise, you can push that to Watson or vice versa. And like we just talked about, we make the data movement incredibly easy. So we're uniting these two worlds of data and AI that have tended to be different parts of an organization in many clients. We're uniting that, I think that's pretty interesting. >> All right, so final question, I've got to ask the tough one, which is, okay, Rob I love it, but I'm really not paying attention to the data because I've got my hands full in my IT transformation and we're making critical decisions on cloud globally, I've got multiple regions to deal with, I got different issues outside in each digital nation, but I'm going to get the data after. What's in it for me, your whole pitch? I'm dealing with cloud right now, so why should I be cross-connecting with the cloud decision and the cloud conversations that relate to the benefit of what you're doing? >> If you're not paying attention to the data, you're not going to be around. So your cloud decisions are kind of worthless, because you're not going to be around if you're not paying attention to the data. >> So I can make a bad cloud decision if I don't factor in what? >> I believe you have to think about your data strategy. Look, every organization is going to be multi-cloud, but you have to have a single data strategy regardless of what your cloud strategy is. You've got to think about all those building blocks I talked about. Manage data, collect data, govern data, analyze data. That has to be one strategy regardless of cloud. If you're not thinking about that, you're in trouble. >> Or making sure that I have Kubernetes? Is that a good decision? >> That is a great decision. >> (laughs) >> Makes it really easy, seamless to deploy applications, to deploy data, to move it around clouds. Makes it really easy. >> And what's the business model for containers? Kind of shifts to being a commodity? >> I think over time, yes, but there's so much to do around containers because containers, again, go back to the analogy. It's just the crate. >> John: Makes things easy. >> It's not the cargo, it's not the ship. It's just the crate, it's one piece. >> Yeah, and there's no, a lot of choice there, too. Clients can do whatever they want. >> Yeah. All right, we love Kubernetes. We'll be at KubeCon in Copenhagen next month, so keep a lookout there for us. This is Rob Thomas, here inside the Cube, here at IBM Think, breaking down all the action in the data science world, data world. It's the center of the value proposition. Main story here at IBM Think is data at the center of the value proposition for the modern enterprise. I'm John Furrier inside the Cube. We'll be back with more after this short break.
