Call your Geico insurance agent to save 15% or more on car insurance.
But the kicker is imo this:
> The new mainframe is also designed -- when used with IBM's GDPS software and DS8000 series storage with HyperSwap -- to deliver 99.999999% (eight 9s) availability when running Red Hat's be-spoke Kubernetes OpenShift Container Platform.
Yes, I also like my over-the-horizon-radar system to be powered by RedHat software. NORAD powered by Kubernetes coming to a US border near you.
