Everything in the cloud, part 2

We have already talked about the cloud technologies offered by IBM. Today I would like to continue this topic and talk about the new SmartCloud services, allowing enterprises to gain control over cloud environments.

On October 12, 2011, IBM presented in New York the industry's best cloud services and software products for corporate clients - IBM SmartCloud Application Services, IBM SmartCloud Foundation and IBM SmartCloud Ecosystem.

More about each - under the cut.

IBM SmartCloud Application Services

IBM SmartCloud Application Services (SCAS) offers enterprises a platform to save time and costs for the cloud environment for their most important enterprise applications, as well as provide high levels of security and control when deploying and providing access.

SCAS hides the complexity of managing the infrastructure behind its services and simplifies installation, configuration, configuration and management tasks for applications, middleware and application tools, allowing enterprises to focus on the business needs of the applications themselves.

During testing, the platform demonstrated significant improvements in terms of management and time savings:

IBM SmartCloud Foundation

This is a family of private cloud solutions that will enable companies to quickly design and deploy private cloud environments with a new level of control over the provision and management of cloud services. Organizations that take the next step, going beyond the virtualization of the data center and embarking on the expansion of their cloud environments, are concerned with the problem of “growth of images”. The new SmartCloud Foundation offers help to cope with this problem by simplifying and speeding up cloud deployment and management.

New services for IBM business partners and independent software developers designed to help thousands of small and medium-sized business customers master the cloud computing model and manage millions of cloud transactions.
