JOHN HAS BEEN THINKING HOW TO TACKLE THE DEVELOPMENT OF HIS NEW PROJECT, WHICH HE HOPES

TO BE USED IN SEVERAL DEVICES.

THE TECHNOLOGIES HE’S BEEN USING DON’T PROVIDE THE NECESSARYPOWER WITHOUT ADDING A GREAT COMPLEXITY THAT IS MEANT TO BE

HANDLED BY BIG TEAMS...

...AS WELL AS MAKING HIM COMPROMISE BETWEEN SCALING, WITH A BIG COMMITMENT UPFRONT, OR GETTING STUCK WITH A LIGHTER

AND CHEAPER, BUT NON-SCALABLE PROJECT.
