Okay, so thanks for the question. As you'd felt the jump in the short term kind of unbilled and then the short-term backlog and total backlog, primarily, our multiyear deals has been in the space side of our business. And we started selling multiyear deals early in 2017 after Eyal, our Chief Revenue Officer, joined us in December of '16. And we really started getting some tractions more in Q3 and Q4 of last year in the space side. What was really exciting on our HCM side, a good chunk of those contracts are annual or month-to-month, so you wouldn't necessarily see them building into that backlog. And what happened, especially with the Wells Fargo acquisition, we were able to move those customers over to multiyear contracts. And in fact, we had 100% success rate of all of them signing 3-year deals. And so that's the reason why you start to see that visibility that we have coming in, in that commitment to three year deals. And I think in the future, you're going to continue to see more of that. Additionally, as Pat has said, which is not in our backlog numbers today is that we're cross-selling those opportunities, understanding the take-up breaks with, say, our advanced HR products or, perhaps, COBRA and benefit. But as customers say in the back half of 2018 and certainly in 2019, as they start to take these new products, they're getting attached at the same time to these multiyear deals. So it's basically, in this quarter, we really saw the results of our kind of incubating this, and you're going to see more multiyear deals in the HCM products. As far as the $3 million as we look at cost savings, it truly is a mixture. There is a piece of that, that is certainly AWS. There is a piece of that, that's going to come out of -- after we get the new ERP system in, you're not going to need as much -- you're going to be able to scale and not hire more people to be able to grow with the business. It's things like -- it's different tools that we can consolidate now, and we now have things that have increased volume, such as freight and supplies that as you think about how much more we're doing, we're able to go out and negotiate much better rates with, say, FedEx or DHL. Or -- and in that fact, given the amount of fund flow that we have now from the payroll side of our business, going out and reaching out to banks in driving cost savings and ACH charges and bank fees. So it truly is a mixture, not necessarily one large piece.
