IBM-Red Hat: Should developers worry we’re headed back to the 1990s?

IBM/Red Hat appears to want to prescribe a monolithic stack of Red Hat products from top to bottom, all
the way down to the operating system. Its leadership recently said, “This is the problem that we’re aiming
to solve — providing a single, common operating environment across the hybrid and multicloud world.” But
any solution that results in less choice, not more, is a regression that will leave a bad taste in the mouth of
today’s developer.

A bad taste indeed. . .

The saddest thing is that a great innovative software company is going to end up obliterated in 5 years. I'm not talking about IBM.

Yep, they want to take it back to the Good Old Days!

Today developers buy à la carte from the cloud.

Maybe secretly IBM thinks "private cloud" means "monolithic cloud"?
