Fingers crossed last chance for ibm to play in the cloud.

[@spacevertex]

This is probably about JEDI going now to IBM rather than AWS

[@Rothbardo]

Amazon and MSFT have already been working on secure hybrid cloud for years. IBM will still be playing catch up if they can survive.

[@abz998]

Cloud is a commodity and so are the related business services.

+1

She's a smart cookie good luck !!

[@jeffwspencer]

The low hanging fruit are the 16k subscribers of Oracle Linux, which is compiled from source of RHEL. Azure, Amazon S3, but also Google Storage Services....

[@jnorfleet3292]

The kiss of death for RedHat.

[@jnorfleet3292]

IBM is not known for software maintenance, this acquisition is for cloud computing. The majority of redhat's money comes from DoD, who will now make a hard right turn to Oracle Linux if patching starts to lag. Have seen this scenario play out time and time again with IBM.

@J Norfleet you’ve seen hybrid cloud computing occur at IBM over and over again? You must be a time traveler.

[@galanonim3050]

Ibm. The story was pronounce. Your property arose in the death camp, calculating how many were killed. This is the court over you

[@scretching08]

Good job!

[@Heavy_Distortion]

Storm on the horizon.

[@friedrichhayek3683]

IBM IS SOON GE LOL

[@dividendincome9685]

Yikes, you might want to rethink that comment
