Trying to make a global data graph seems to be an appealing problem to try and solve, but anecdotally seems to just result in an eventual acquihire rather than a successful product (even if they do have cool tech). From the press release and supporting document, I’m not really understanding what this is all about, and why one should be excited about this pivot. What does the world look like with a successful version of this? If I’m building a product that consumes multiple third-party APIs at various points in its lifecycle, I’m not seeing a compelling value in talking to one huge borg graph rather than surgically accessing specific APIs, other than maybe only having to manage one API key. Can someone paint a cleaner picture for me of why this matters?
