No they are not (only) that. IBM is a global cloud provider on par with the rest as far as the basic offers go.

IBMs cloud is on par? With whom? Certainly not AWS and Azure. Nor GCP. Not even with OCI.

Seriously now? https://cloud.ibm.com/login

IBM cloud has nothing to do with AWS or any other provider. It is an autonomous provider just like AWS, Azure, Google, Alibaba, etc

Jesus, get your facts straight before shooting such inaccuracies.

That is an outright lie. I’ve seen IBM data centers.

The most basic googling will show this is a lie.
