Wonder what caused such a high valuation. They definitely didnt seem to have enough revenues to justify it.
I would imagine it is not so much about Ansible's general valuation in the industry but about its value for Red Hat (a.k.a -- Red Hat is not buying Ansible for its revenues but for its technology).

#17Supposedly a > $100mm deal. Both companies are already headquartered in N.C., and Ansible has a ton of momentum in the RHEL and OpenStack arenas, so it would make sense to pull the project into the fold. One thing I wonder is how much the project's priorities would shift away from (if at all) anything non-RHEL-centric.
