They should merge all those products because apart from the Mark Server, they have the Web Portal, which requires a separate installation and license. And it's not easy to maintain, but very easy to use. So you need additional resources such as memory, unlike if they merge those Web Portal and Mark Server, which would be a great solution. I think they should be more open to or ready to be agnostic to any databases, such as MongoDB. Any database available in the market should be ready in their drivers because I don't think they can be ready. So all the popular databases like Oracle, MySQL, Microsoft, and SQL Server, but I haven't seen any connector in Cosmos DB SQL, so it should be in the big data or cloud solution.

erwin is pretty easy. I've been using it for so long it's like second nature. The visual data models are pretty easy for helping to overcome data source complexity and enabling understanding and collaboration around maintenance and usage. It's easy to add, change, and update things. We get feedback from retailers. For example, somebody wants to update something in the item area, they want to use a new item identifier and it's just a matter of going in and adding it to the numerations for that. Or somebody might come in and say, "We're using a little bit of a different pricing model so we need to add this information into the pricing area." Or people will say "We need to add Bitcoin," so we can go in and add Bitcoin and the attributes you need to support it and do it very easily. At this point, we're not adding new capabilities, we're simply expanding existing ones.
