IBM software products now cloud-native for public and private clouds

IBM has announced that it has transformed its software portfolio to be cloud-native and optimized it to run on Red Hat OpenShift.

Enterprises can now build mission-critical applications once and run them on all leading public clouds, including AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Alibaba and IBM Cloud and on private clouds.

The new cloud-native capabilities will be delivered as pre-integrated solutions called IBM Cloud Paks. The IBM-certified and containerized software will provide a common operating model and common set of services – including identity management, security, monitoring and logging – and are designed to improve visibility and control across clouds together with a unified and intuitive dashboard.

IBM has also rolled out Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud, RedHat OpenShift on IBM Z and LinuxOne and Consulting and technology services for Red Hat:

The software and services announced today, which include more than 100 products from across IBM’s expansive software portfolio optimized to run on Red Hat OpenShift, will be delivered on IBM’s hybrid multicloud platform. It is built on open source technologies, including Red Hat OpenShift, the industry’s most comprehensive enterprise Kubernetes platform, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the world’s leading enterprise Linux platform.

As a result, clients can select the best architecture and approach to address the most critical application, data and workload requirements for their business.

“IBM is unleashing its software from the data center to fuel the enterprise workload race to the cloud. This will further position IBM the industry leader in the more than $1 trillion dollar hybrid cloud opportunity,” said Arvind Krishna, senior vice president, Cloud and Cognitive Software, IBM. “We are providing the essential tools enterprises need to make their multi-year journey to cloud on common, open standards that can reach across clouds, across applications and across vendors with Red Hat.”

“Red Hat is unlocking innovation with Linux-based technologies, including containers and Kubernetes, which have become the fundamental building blocks of hybrid cloud environments,” said Jim Whitehurst, president and CEO, Red Hat. “This open hybrid cloud foundation is what enables the vision of any app, anywhere, anytime. Combined with IBM’s strong industry expertise and supported by a vast ecosystem of passionate developers and partners, customers can create modern apps with the technologies of their choice and the flexibility to deploy in the best environment for the app – whether that is on-premises or across multiple public clouds.”
