@jimjag And relatively soon after, 'personal cloud on-prem' will morph into something like 'managed on-prem infrastructure' (essentially AWS Outposts and other easily managed local infra), which will then spawn new 'cloud' providers: but this time it will be different ;-) Pendulums FTW!

Sprint reviews tend to be more engaging when they: are energetic, set high-level context, use visualizations, are prepared to walk through code but don't lead with it on a 32" monitor (consider your mobile stakeholders).
