what is the verdict on compose.io? will it be blue-washed?
- guitarbill 10y agowell, like e.g. Ustream and unlike the infamous storage mergers (Softlayer, Cleversafe, Cloudant, XIV, Storwize, TMS, etc) it seems to have remained a separate company. maybe because it doesn't fit an existing IBM division? so it might be safe, as long as it isn't incorporated into the shitshow that is bluemix.
- johnward 10y agoIt's typical to be a separate company until bluewashing occurs.
- mrkurt 10y agoMost compose.io people are still there. Integration is/was pretty thoughtful, so lots of what crushes tiny companies within IBM was delayed. I think these acquisitions go wrong for customers _after_ the original team leaves, for the most part.
