Phenomenal analysis. Doesn't it just make sense for CRM to try and take out TWLO? Could be construed as a merger. Jeff Lawson would make a formidable future heir to the combined entity.

Awesome read. A more structured thought that my simple thought circling through mind lately - Salesforce is a system of record and just a customer database.

Nowadays 80% of SFDC workflow is better outside of it (Scratchpad, Dooly.ai, etc - more beautiful UIs) - which makes the question - is the "$150/seat/mo Postgres deployment worth it? Especially in recession times for smaller cos [startups, small saas, etc])

Fantastic as always! One question, how does a CDP like Segment differ from what Mulesoft does or all the other middleware/integration tools out there? Are they solving the same problem but in different ways?

As a new grad trying to understand the vast software ecosystem, this helped me finally understand what Saleforce does. Not only what they do, but how they fit into the greater ecosystem of other companies. Thanks!
