Congrats to FIS. I wonder if this will result in additional jobs for Jax?

After weeks of rumors of a possible deal, Fidelity National Information Services Inc. announced Wednesday morning that it agreed to buy SunGard for $9.1 billion.
Jacksonville-based Fidelity National Information Services, or FIS, said the merger will create a company with $9.2 billion in annual revenue that offers a range of financial technology services.

The two companies will have more than 55,000 employees serving clients in more than 100 countries, FIS said.
