IBM - How Companies of All Sizes Leverage OpenStack Based Private Clouds

IBM is all about open technologies and pairing up with best of breed technology partners to build cloud solutions that enable customers choice and efficiency at scale.  With years of experience delivering private clouds for companies of all sizes, IBM has collected technical expertise and lessons learned that are re-invested upstream to the OpenStack community and ultimately codified into our solutions.

In this session, Azmir Mohamed, IBM Bluemix Private Cloud Offering Manager, will share customer use cases for hosted and on-premise private cloud deployment models and address how these models meet differing customer requirements. Duncan Johnston Watt, Founder and CEO of Cloudsoft, will join Azmir to discuss why Cloudsoft selected Bluemix Private Cloud two years ago and how the recently announced Bluemix Private Cloud with Red Hat option has extended the value Bluemix Private Cloud brings to the market.
