Over half a billion of USD looks like real value to me, I wish I could make that much with vanilla Kubernetes and Helm charts. Let's be respectful for Rancher's fantastic exit.

They recently when through a Series D round for $75 million, but yet you believe they have half a billion in the bank? They were on their last leg begging for seed money to keep them afloat.

That's a lower estimate of the acquisition based on the info about this deal linked elsewhere in the thread and on the net.

Did they publicly announce the finances? They wouldn't have sold to SUSE unless their investors were getting desperate for some return.
