    When IBM blue mix goes down the employees can use the old arrested development joke “I blue myself”

    Also lol, 0% blue mix among current votes.

    I think Digital Ocean would've been a better place to work for over IBM Cloud.

      DO is also playing a good catch up game in the low cost segment (hence Amazon releasing lightsail) Just recently they started managed kubernetes masters (ala EKS) and managed Postgres. If you treat your systems properly like cattle there is massive realizable savings for small to mid scale companies. They have a lot of backing now too.

      Plus their WLB and culture seems hella nice.

    OP
    Alright this is not a fair assessment, I could only tag 3 companies, so IBM was left out. And I think it’s rebranded as “IBM Cloud”

    • I think it’s because Google not google cloud. And less customers means less ops work but more money for Google in general. Pretty good life I heard since people dun have expectations.
