Blockchain! Machine learning! Cloud! This is the most Buzzword Compliant mainframe we've ever made!

IBM invented Buzzword Compliance. It's probably patented. There is likely an IBM Buzzword Compliance team. I bet they leverage Watson to ensure compliance.

  I bet they leverage Watson to ensure cognitive compliance for strategic solutionings.

   I bet they leverage Watson to ensure world-class, mission-critical cognitive compliance 
   for strategic cloud-aligned, value-added, blockchain-enabled solutionings.

That is horrible and beautiful, well done.

Maybe that's an indicator of a technology being at the tail end of the hype curve - IBM marketing no longer mentions it.
