I recently had the pleasure of talking to some folks very
involved in IBM Bluemix and Pivotal Cloud Foundry field sales teams and although they are similar
technologies there was a difference in how they were going to market. I first
thought this was just two individuals with different styles but then I looked
at the home pages and they do seen to be targeting different audiences.

I’m not saying either approach is good or bad it’s just

next few years.
