Jensen Huang and @nvidia want $120B in new data infra for agentic AI.
The bottleneck isn't GPUs. It's databases that can't do OLTP and OLAP at the same time.
Thread on why this matters for agent systems ↓

What if we could pick up a k8s cluster and move it w/out service disruption?
We demo’d this at Kubecon NA 2024 by moving a @kubernetes cluster running @valkey_io from AWS to Azure and then GCP all without disruption! This is pure magic from @pojntfx

Over a year delay on delivery of a @VanMoof bike and then rude customer service when you ask questions. I don’t care how cool your bike is, you may not make it.
