 Welcome back folks. That was up 150. You get the NASDAQ, up 112. S&Ps are up 31. I guess today folks is Michael Spytek. Michael is the co-founder and president of DTRAXI. Now DTRAXI folks is spelled D-E-T-R-A-X-I. Website is D-E-T-R-A-X-I dot I-O. This is a St. Peter's based company offering cloud solutions for the next generation of satellites. We're currently competing for a space force contract after receiving a small business research grant from the space force. And we start talking disruptive architecture, disruptive technology. That's what looks to me like this company's all about. Michael, welcome to TFNN. Thank you very much. Very nice to meet you. Thank you for having me. It's great for you coming on, man. I was going to your website today, man. This is so cool, man. I need more than nine minutes for you, but let's get what we can get in nine minutes. You just said it all. You got us right dialed in. It's about disruption, about innovation, about bringing something new and exciting and some options out to an industry that frankly needs them. Yes. So tell us right now, satellites and national security. Where do we stand with that right now? That's a very good question. We stand at a moment where the government, the Department of Defense is looking for innovation. They're changing the ways not only that they do business, but the way these entities all the way out to the software defined in the software-enabled warfighter works. You'll see a lot of stuff out there about the Department of Defense, the Space Force, the various elements moving over to the cloud, moving their infrastructure, cloud-enabling and virtualizing a lot of things, and our industry is going to keep up. So the way that these warfighters, elements, and sensors out in the field communicate are changing, and our industry is changing quickly as part of that. Now how is cloud computing going to give us an edge in this whole national defense deal? Well, in terms of satellite, cloud is playing catch up to some extent. In cloud computing, the satellite industry has only really been involved on the edges. It's utilized cloud computing as a little piece of the puzzle. And as the DOD moves some of its real core functionality into the cloud, our industry has to do the same. And it really has it. They put little pieces here and there. They've done some connectivity with the cloud, but what they haven't done is move some core, virtualized, true infrastructural satellite functions to the cloud, and that's what Detraxy is all about. And when that's accomplished, we're going to stand side-by-side in parallel with the Department of Defense's cloud capabilities in very good lineup. Now, folks, when you go to his website, and it's detraxy.io, it's a remembrance I-O, D-E-T-R-A-X-I-O. It's really cool. When you go to the architecture pod, you're going to see disruptive architecture. And you know what's so interesting, Michael, is that you got Jazzy taking over for Jeff Bezos on Tuesday, right? And when you read that whole deal about cloud computing between visual, I mean, because it's a virtual deal that we're talking about, right? First off, if the listeners and the watchers don't know, virtualization and cloud computing, AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform have changed the way we live our lives. They've changed everything, everything. If you don't know, you can start looking into those elements. And they've brought down the cost. The company that we started back in St. Petersburg in 2002, I used to go into big data centers down in Miami. We would spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on infrastructure, on servers, on satellite modem infrastructure, on all these elements. We had to buy all these super expensive, hard pieces of metal. You don't have to do that anymore. And when you've done that, guess what? They're not that flexible. They're not that, you know, you pick up and have to move that stuff. You have to replicate it elsewhere. You're spending tons of amounts of money, but on top of that, that every function that we do in our daily lives, from banking to email, everything, it's all virtualizing cloud hosts. Those companies are massive, massive impacts on our life. And the interesting part is the satellite industry is a niche of a niche of a niche. And we've kind of been a holdout. You know, 10 years ago, the satellite industry was really locked up and no more than a dozen very large companies and those companies, you know, obviously wanted to keep their piece of the pie in their businesses, you know, profitable and moving forward. But a lot of that positioning and the result of that is a kind of stifled innovation in our tiny, tiny little sector. Well, democratization is coming and democratization of space and what we call Space 2.0 is here. And a big part of that power is virtualization. It's also accessibility, accessibility to the space and accessibility to capital and investment. There's a lot of companies coming to bear. We read weekly about companies getting funded in our sector and it's really exciting to companies that are out there and following in the footsteps of some guys that have really kind of broken the glass ceiling in the last 10 years in our industry. So it's a great time to be in space. How did you get in this business? Oh, God. Do you remember the old days? I think you would remember in the 1990s when a phone call cost $3 a minute to call internationally? Yes, yes, for sure. And then in the blink of an eye, it cost $10 a second. You know, I'm sorry, $0.10 a minute. Yes. You know, our calling cards, we were part of that. That was an early space-based democratization where we would go out and build satellite antennas and infrastructure in these countries and, you know, there would be competition where there was no competition before. And once those big entities, the major phone companies that were making millions and billions off of international long distance, once there was true competition, in this case, enabled by space, look what happened to that industry. And that's really how we got into it. It was actually a hurricane down in the Caribbean that knocked out long distance communications for more than a year. And my brother was down in the Caribbean. I was here in Miami at the time and we picked up the yellow pages calling around and figuring out how to do satellite. That is so cool. So now let me ask you. So you have, you got a grant, you know, from the space force that basically gets something going. So you're taking that grant money and what is your goal right now? Well, our goal at the moment is to socialize and introduce our technology around the space force, find individual elements of the space force and define, help understand what their problems are and how our technology can positively impact. And that's been a very, very informative and positive evolution here in the last two months that we've been doing in feeling around the space force. Our next phase, if we're successful in the space force pitch day in August, is to actually make a demonstration of real space force traffic across our virtualized elements. And what we're doing is actually taking all those expensive pieces of hardware out of their very, very expensive places where they live today in access space and we're going to move all those pieces of the cloud. It's happening here and there in little pieces but it's not happening holistically in one overall architecture and that's what we're working towards and we've had a lot of positive traction forward. We've got a plan going forward and a technology roadmap and it's all green lights. We just have to find the adoption and we're hoping that the United States Space Force can really help us open some doors. Well, congratulations. I think you're going to score here, man. I mean, I went through your website. We'll make sure you pump out there, man. You have a great idea, man. For the normal, I'm not a geek, but the bottom line, it's hard to understand but because of cloud computing, I think more of us can understand it every day.
