See the latest in multi-cloud management at InterConnect
I can’t wait for IBM InterConnect 2017, where we will preview the new hybrid cloud management platform we are building for our clients. Why? Read on.
More companies are investing in hybrid cloud strategies. Many businesses have a multi-cloud strategy. And that strategy must include a cloud management platform that agnostically manages any cloud so developers are empowered to innovate. And they need it soon. IDC predicts that by 2018, 65 percent of companies will have a management platform for self-service automation that powers developers.
It’s my belief that today, most cloud services are managed in workload and platform silos. That needs to change. It is imperative that companies embrace a holistic approach to cloud management for service reliability, cost, and accessibility. IT leaders need to treat all cloud services as if they are one unified environment, and eliminate the multiple and redundant tools used to manage the cloud.
That’s why at IBM InterConnect 2017, we will preview the new cloud management platform we are building for our clients. We’re planning to show a comprehensive, multi-cloud management solution for IT operations and developers. And with the cognitive capabilities of IBM Watson, we’ll show how to use operational analytics across multiple cloud providers to optimize and govern public and private clouds.
InterConnect will feature IT leaders who will share their automation and hybrid cloud successes and lessons learned. Here are just a few of the sessions and client stories at InterConnect:
