Kubernetes reinvented virtual machines? That’s a bold statement. I’m still waiting for them to catch up to where OS/360 was 45 years ago.

People forget that mainframe did it first, mainframe still does it best, the only thing that’s changed is that now you can do it on consumer grade electronics for less then 5 million dollars.



Can you elaborate on what mainframes do better? I'm genuinely curious (not being too familiar with mainframes).
