Hybrid clouds are increasingly being
viewed as a norm by large enterprises. This cloud marketplace will
initially provide cloud space ranging from Big Data analytics to
security purpose for mobile and web.
Back in February, IBM also launched
BlueMix open cloud platform with a billion dollar investment
and now also looking to accelerate the investment. This platform also
offers an oppurtunity for developers to build and test various
applications just like in a sandbox environment.
IBM is planning to launch 30 new
services in BlueMix for growth in various areas such as big data
analytics, cloud integration, dev-ops and Internet-of-Things. IBM
has made a series of investments on cloud technologies with around
$1.2 billion with global data center expansion for SoftLayer, $1
billion for establishing Blue PaaS and more than $7 billion in 17
acquisitions, including Aspera, Cloudant and Silverpop.
