O(1)?

Edit: the site didn't make it, I just think the stylized name was cool.

O for Object and (1) cause it's fast.

Or it would be. I'm not building it.

this is legit a much better name while also being reductio ad absurdum, it also follows the convention (R2 = rapid, reliable, S3= simple storage service, O1 = object)
"Order one".. nice subliminal messaging.
Q1
I assume Q1 is just a service called Queen - it excels at everything and looks amazing doing it.
P0

O-1, On1?

I believe that the Japanese had an airplane with that designation once, famous for use in suicide attacks, but I cannot find reference to it. Some other models with Zero in the name I can find, but not the P-0.
Apparently the Zero was officially the "Navy Type 0 carrier fighter".
