Event Details

Building a cloud strategy for your company is not a simple task. If you are evaluating your cloud strategy and considering OpenStack, this session is for you. IBM is all about open technologies and building open cloud solutions that enable clients to quickly deploy their workloads on cloud infrastructure without vendor lock-in.

In this session, Jason McGee, IBM Fellow and CTO for Cloud Platforms and Azmir Mohamed, Blue Box Product Management, will share our cloud strategy and point of view on market direction.

You will then learn about different use cases for Local, Dedicated, and Public cloud deployment models and how they address different client expectations. Learn why public cloud is the key to hybrid and how IBM's open cloud platform, Bluemix integrates many open technologies (Including OpenStack, Docker and Cloud Foundry) and is far more than a PaaS. Learn how you can have a worry-free private OpenStack Cloud secure on-premise or in an IBM SoftLayer global data center that is dedicated to you; each providing a public cloud experience in a private cloud deployment. With so many companies supporting OpenStack you need to do your homework. It's all about the differentiators. Hear details about what IBM and Blue Box provides as market differentiators.
