- djsumdog 9y agoI didn't realize they acquired Ansible.
- samstave 9y agoyep, I would suspect that too many at-scale ops are using either ubuntu/amazon/centos etc are eating at their market share capabilities... buying up these cements them in the devops toolbox a lot longer. Super smart. However, I would love to see how they have evolved their openstack offering and their integration with intel's secure compute since the last time I worked on that project... I havent really looked - but I wonder if at all the meltdown/spectre issue affected them at all. is there any at all risk from a security standpoint where redhat owns the tooling for many devops customers?
- pm90 9y ago> is there any at all risk from a security standpoint where redhat owns the tooling for many devops customers? They open source a lot of their tools, so I don't really think there's any lock-in (I assume that is what you meant by "insecurity" in them owning the tools, and not traditional computer security)
- samstave 9y agoYeah thats what I meant -- but "trust but verify" -- how verify?
- emmelaich 9y agoAnd their Kubernetes - Openshift - seems like one of the best options for K8S with it's extra sauces.
- manishjhawar 9y ago+1: They're really in to it with their OpenShift offerings which are really good and open source too! I really admire them for that.
