Siemens as a global company wants to be more and more data and AI driven company and our team. Provides solutions, platforms exactly to do that for us is a big company. It's really important to understand which data we can trust because we have so much data around with DBT, with DBT mesh, it is now much, much easier for for us to release it. See, OK, what is trustful data product where we have proper quality with tests running with jobs running to really also ensure that yeah, we can. Rust and build on that data we provide you also for us, speed is super important, so our businesses expect to have results faster and faster and therefore we always have to keep up on that. Of course, we must not jeopardise on on quality on on making sure that data is properly documented and data is also safe always. What helps us a lot in using DBT is the fact that. We for example have macros, cells and of course in addition that we can reshare or reuse what is already there to a high extent. Since we have to introduce DBT, of course, it helped us a lot in understanding what are the cost drivers behind different transformation, different business logic. We also have been able to significantly reduce the cost we're having. I see the benefit in DBT also that it's not too close to any. Any platform, so it tries to be independent from the big players, so that it helps really to combine different things together. And what I really appreciate also about DBT is this just open community. People are trying to help out. We have a very good relationship with DBT that we can also openly discuss with each other, can see what works, what doesn't work, what can be improved. I really like that that mindset also DBT brings with her.
