pretty different things and also IBM owns Red Hat
Hashicorp’s Nomad is a k8s competitor. It has pretty nice tooling that is simplier than k8s, and directly supportes vms, containers, war files, etc.
It’s pretty common for companies to buy up their competitors, so IBM already owning openshift/etc and still making the purchase makes sense.

Capitalism “competition drives innovation” at its finest
I’m tired and OP’s title case is messing with my brain.
If I were to rank HashiCorp’s products by importance, Nomad would not be at the top
Of course, if I had ranked Red Hat’s products by importance at the time of acquisition, OpenShift would not have been at the top, so I am not a reliable ranker
The title is super confusing, it looks like Kubernetes is part of Red Hat
