This is great news! I am not sure what happens to tectonic? Is is going to be part of OpenShift?

As per the question in the FAQ about open sourcing CoreOS's technology, we can assume it's going to become open source, at least:

https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/faq-red-hat-acquire-coreos

It will probably continue to be available in some paid commercial offering with well defined releases and lifecycles, as well as a community-supported free-in-both-senses offering which moves faster. Red Hat repeatedly uses this model across their portfolio.

Can't answer the OpenShift question - I have no inside info from either company. But open sourcing it is the bigger impact.

Thanks, I didn't see the FAQ link. Yea, let's see what happens with OpenShift.
