Was this true before the acquisition?

Was probably truer of middleware than other areas. (Which I gather is largely going over to IBM.) Linux had a very significant DEC legacy. OpenShift was essentially greenfield from a startup acquisition (that got totally rewritten for Kubernetes anyway) and I'm not sure I would characterize people in that area as broadly coming from any particular large vendor.
