IBMCloud

Ease of Use for End Users (you can’t control end users)
• Cloud security should not require users to change behaviors or tools

Inconsistent Control (you don’t own everything)
• The only thing you can count on is guest VM ownership

Elasticity (not all servers are steady-state)
• Cloudbursting, stale servers, dynamic provisioning

Scalability (highly variable server counts)
• May have one dev server or 1,000 production web servers

Portability (same controls work anywhere)
• Nobody wants multiple tools or IaaS provider lock-in

Disruptors are reinventing business processes and leading their industries with digital transformations.
1) Frontline Decision Making- Business Leaders go Mobile First
2) Real Time Insight Driven Processes- CIOs enable fast
decisions

Can you tell us about companies that are leveraging the cloud to transform their businesses?

For example: Airbus is transforming the way they deliver value to their customers by using mobile devices analytics to improve the speed and efficiency of airplane maintenance.

Another example: Citigroup is fostering innovation in banking and investments, by creating an external ecosystem of technology collaborators and 3rd party developers.

@IBM@CloudRaxak @VMware provide a seamless and cost-effective way to leverage the cloud, manage risk, and maintain continuous security compliance.

@JamesLBerke @CloudRaxak has eliminated non-IT user risk by integrating security compliance into the VMware vRealize IT service catalog.

A line of business user with no security experience, can now provision a VM on the @IBMCloud or on-prem with a CISO defined security profile (eg.PCI-DSS).

Join the 9/14 webinar to see demo of @CloudRaxak@VMware vRealize service catalog,@IBM Cloud. See how enterprises can quickly and securely move VMware workloads in the IBM Cloud.

Three areas of value: 1) Speed with security and performance on demand

2) Scale to enterprise-class data centers globally

3) Control, providing full ability to manage the on-prem/cloud environment seamlessly

vCloud Air Network is a good play by VMware

Automation Provides Scale and Reduces Costs
‒ Automation saves 40% of cloud operational costs

to remediate drift

Security Compliance requires a consistent policy on-premise and in the Cloud

The security profile should be developed by the CISO

and applied consistently to public, private clouds, and traditional IT.

IBM has 4 guiding principles
• Choice with Consistency
• DevOps Productivity
• Industrialized Hybrid Cloud
• Power, Accessible Analytics with Cognitive

Thank you great Q&A. I hope everyone is able to make the webcast.

The IBM Cloud presence at #vmworld was really impactful
