π₯ Hot Takes Tuesday for 2025-03-25
Exploring futuristic hybrid cloud scenarios tied to geographical data sovereignty.
(Yes, Iβm avoiding a hot take on the bigger headline.)
Four hot takes on one story that caught my eye on Tuesday.
βοΈ + πΊοΈ If you can imagine what data sovereignty looks like in 2025, try to imagine a fully balkanized hybrid cloud that is inextricably tied to a landmass by law.
βοΈ + π‘ Next, try to imagine a hybrid cloud datacenter 1st tier primary / backup that is 20-40 milliseconds away.
βοΈ + π°οΈ Next, try to imagine a hybrid cloud datacenter 2nd tier primary / backup that is 500-700 milliseconds away.
βοΈ + π Now, try to imagine a hybrid cloud datacenter 3rd tier primary / backup that is 2-3 seconds away and tidally locked to Earth.

A quick message from Lida:
With 18 years building, marketing, and scaling products at startups, I work with founders and leaders stuck between where they are and where they need to be. I help you cut through the noise, make sharper decisions, and get your team executing with clarity instead of chaos.
Most founders mistake complexity for strategy. They keep adding when they should be subtracting. When I'm brought in, the team is usually doing a lot right, and the real issue is focus and direction. I diagnose what's actually going wrong across product, positioning, and execution, then reset direction and get everyone aligned around one clear path forward that will lead to growth.
A bit of what I've done: I was the first PM on a fintech product that hit 10,000+ users within months, built a national incubator that supported over $500M in startup funding, and led teams at 23 Design before it was acquired by frog (the design team behind Appleβs first products). I've spoken at Google, Microsoft, and LinkedIn, etc.
