PartnerWorld and Red Hat
CF: You have said that the Red Hat program and IBM PartnerWorld are going to remain separate entities. Is that still the plan?
DLR: We’re not looking at bringing them closer together. If you look at the Red Hat partner program, the partners are largely either reselling REL [Red Hat Linux] or Ansible. There’s very little crossover with the portfolios that we have and the set of partners that we have. For the foreseeable future, there’s no plan to bring those two programs together. We think they’re complementary, but independent of each other.
