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.
