IBM Cloud Paks

There are many paths toward modernizing applications, systems, and infrastructure. Cloud computing offers the scale and the speed that is needed for fast execution, cost benefits, innovation, and business growth. Hybrid cloud and multi-cloud architectures are going to take the lead and organizations will start building fully cloud-enabled services themselves. Pedab believes IBM Cloud Paks will open new business for IBM´s channel partners.

Use IBM Cloud Paks to help your customer

IBM Cloud Paks are six containerised software solutions to move core business applications to any cloud. Each IBM Cloud Pak includes a Red Hat OpenShift container platform, IBM certified containerized software and open source components, and common software services for development and management, on top of a common integration layer – designed to reduce development time by up to 84% and operational expenses by up to 75 per cent.

Designed for Red Hat OpenShift

IBM Cloud Paks are designed for the leading application platform, Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, which is built on an orchestration platform, Kubernetes. The fact that IBM has designed Cloud Paks specifically for deployment to the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (as a service, PaaS), is positive to our customers because Red Hat OpenShift is the leading application platform.

Kubernetes automates many of the manual processes

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) builds on top of the Kubernetes technology. Kubernetes is an open source orchestration platform for containers. Kubernetes automates many of the manual processes involved in deploying, managing, and scaling containerized applications. Kubernetes also maximizes resources needed to run the enterprise app and control and automate application deployments and updates.

VMs dominance will be eroded

The shift from a predominantly VM-based world to a more mixed cloud-native and VM-based world is the new reality. Over the next five years, the dominance of VMs will be eroded as more workloads are developed and deployed in a container-based environment.

Big cultural and skills shift

Although we do not believe that all workloads will become container based, it is expected to represent a significant proportion of workloads in a few years. This shift requires an equally big cultural and skills shift, which is holding back faster adoption of containers, along with the difficulty in modernizing legacy systems.

By including the industry’s most complete set of automation capabilities and business-friendly tooling, Cloud Pak for Business Automation helps companies get up and running quickly with a wide range of automation use cases. Customers can start small – deploying only the capabilities they need – and grow over time.

IBM Cloud Pak for Watson AIOps

IBM Cloud Pak for Watson AIOps, running on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, provides consistent visibility, governance and automation from on premises to the edge. Enterprises gain capabilities such as multicluster management, event management, application management and infrastructure management. Enterprises can leverage this IBM Cloud Pak to help increase operational efficiency that is driven by intelligent data analysis and predictive golden signals and gain built-in support for their compliance management. IBM Netcool Operations Insight is found in this Cloud Pak.

IBM Cloud Pak for Integration

IBM Cloud Pak for Integration helps support the speed, flexibility, security and scale required for the customers integration and digital transformation initiatives. IBM Cloud Pak for Integration can rapidly and securely connect applications and data across clouds and on-premise environments to transform operations, build engaging digital experiences, and launch new business models. Cloud Pak for Integration offers a single, unified platform to support an agile approach to integration that empowers decentralized teams to quickly build and deploy secure, reusable integrations, increasing overall productivity while reducing risks and costs.

IBM Cloud Pak for Network Automation

IBM Cloud Pak for Network Automation is an AI-powered telco cloud platform for communications service providers (CSPs). This Cloud Pak provides a full suite of automation and AI features to orchestrate, operate and optimize multivendor network functions and services while evolving to autonomous operations. As a result, CSPs will reduce their operational costs, deliver services faster, and onboard network functions with greater ease from any vendor.

IBM Cloud Pak for Security

As more business moves to the cloud, security data is frequently spread across different tools, clouds and IT environments. This creates gaps that allow threats to be missed – that can only be solved by undertaking costly complex integrations. IBM Cloud Pak for Security provides a platform to help more quickly integrate your existing security tools to generate deeper insights into threats across hybrid, multicloud environments, using an infrastructure-independent common operating environment that runs anywhere. You can quickly search for threats, orchestrate actions and automate responses—all while leaving your data where it.
