 to be here. It's great to see you all here. I'm excited for another great event. We started this about 13 years ago and it's been growing ever since. Before we get started with the keynotes this morning, which I think you're going to really enjoy by the way, I want to give a shout out to our sponsors. If we didn't have our sponsors, we wouldn't be able to have this kind of well-nice facility and the visuals and the receptions and the food. I want to give a special thank you to our diamond sponsors, Intel and SyFive. Intel has been a sponsor of ours for many years. We're really grateful to them. SyFive is new this year. We're really excited to see them join the fold. I also want to thank our platinum sponsor Qualcomm and our gold sponsors, the Civil Infrastructure Platform and SUSE. Please join me in thanking them. We've got a lot of great content. I'm going to turn the time over to Philip to say a few words and introduce our first few speakers. Awesome. Thanks. I just wanted to ask folks, who's been here 13 years ago at the first event? Anybody? I see a few hands. You can put your hands up. What about four years ago when we added in IoT? Who was here four years ago when we added in the IoT event? The event was a lot smaller. It was about that size of the room for both events together. Four years ago, IoT was kind of in the emergent side. It was just kind of growing up a little bit and trying to figure out what it was. We're really on the birthing side of it. I think Linux at the edge was kind of a hidden thing that people hadn't really figured out fully. Not the people in this room, but people in industry. Tim and I were talking last night and this morning that four years later, and just four years, it's not that much time, when you look out in the marketplace at what's going on and the really seminal role of Linux at the edge, the reverse of the cloud, and the growth of little things beyond that and how that enablement really looks like a mirror of what we're doing on the other side of the world. We're taking little things and connecting them up to the cloud and now we're taking little things and connecting to the edge and bringing them together. Tim, you've been here through the whole thing. Oh, yeah. I've been around a long time. I didn't need these when we started. But I think that really comes to the agenda we have today and through the event. If you look through it, the intertwining, it was really hard as we were going through and reviewing. I know on your side and on the IoT side, it was really hard reviewing sessions because a lot of the sessions sat in both sides of the camp. Should this be on the embedded Linux side? Is this an open IoT or are they both? A lot of them were both and that really talks to how this is starting to really come together this year. Yeah. I think there's a great synergy between these two events. If you're doing IoT, there's stuff out in the leaf nodes, of course, and so there's stuff that may or may not be Linux, but they're definitely going through some Linux nodes on your edge and into the cloud. And so I think this is a great combination event for covering that whole range of things. Yeah. I think one of the things we're seeing in this year's session a lot is the emergence of some real patterns in this space that we're starting to really go from DIY to monoliths of solutions to real patterns of how you build at the edge for certain domains. Anthony our next speaker and I were talking a little bit ago, but enterprise patterns versus OEM patterns versus consumer patterns and how those are starting to emerge and really fit together these pieces in a unique way that's different than what the cloud is. It's complementary, but it is very unique to the edge and it is its own whole world that's really emerged. Right. Great. Cool. So I'll let you, uh, thank you.
