If a big vendor such as Oracle, IBM, MS, and others buys your fav software, start the migration procedure ASAP

Posted on 2020/12/10 by Carl Robitaille

IBM buys Red Hat: CentOS is going to >/dev/null.

Note to self: If a big vendor such as Oracle, IBM, MS, and others buys your fav software, start the migration procedure ASAP.
