Few people saw the collab between IBM and Red Hat coming but they’ve hooked up, and it has opened a plethora of opportunities.
Red Hat made IBM’s enterprise hardware more accessible!
Failing to leverage this new collab is like… well, preparing to fail.
Workloads should perform as expected regardless of where they are deployed from and if they don’t, you may have a problem, an unnecessary one.
Red Hat-IBM facilitates streamlined workload performances when used consistently as well as providing an improved developer experience and development offerings, upgraded distributed infrastructure operations, as well as rich ecosystem partnerships and integrations.
Are you feeling collared?Cloud native is an approach to building and running applications that fully exploit the advantages of the cloud computing model, setting you as free as a pup off leash in the park. There’s no limited access or exclusivity either. Now the expensive box under lock and key can be opened to developers!
Until recently you couldn’t build mission-critical applications and run them on any public cloud or platform. You couldn't move any software around on your mainframe. You were on a short leash. Time to cut loose.
Now, the IBM and Red Hat collaboration has deployed a containerised system that can offer a hybrid cloud. There’s no longer any need to feel harnessed when you can have access to the best of both worlds.
For more than a century IBM has been dedicated to creating innovations that matter for the world. Together with Axiz, the IBM partnership has delivered such successes to the African continent for more than 25 years. Product solutions include hardware, software cloud-based services, and cognitive computing. Red Hat is another feather in the cap that will allow us to provide more solutions and improved service.
Enterprises that don’t use cloud AI developer services will already find themselves at a disadvantage as they now play a crucial role in next-generation app development.
Let’s unpack five ways you may miss out if you don’t use a decent cloud-native infrastructure framework.
1. You CAN teach an old dog new tricks
Now the 60-year COBOL developer can run on a front-end. Like the pup, the old dog has also been unleashed. Your boxes have been expensive and outdated, but now they can be inexpensive, pre-integrated, pre-automated, built properly and secure while you continue be at the top of your game.
There is no longer a need for deep data science skills to empower development teams and business users to leverage AI models via APIs and SDKs.
2. Does your integration need work?
We all know that integration is not easy, and it costs money. Usually, you need to source a handful of developers from wherever you can and then wait for them to decipher the code before they can get cracking on new and better code. There is an easier way to ensure stable, secure integration and end-to-end performance.
Alternatively, you can keep coughing-up for your high alignment and developer tool costs on legacy infrastructures.
3. Run your enterprise-class system on any public cloud or platform
Your options in the past were limited because you were held within a primary lock-in but now you can run your enterprise-class system on any platform or public cloud.
Imagine data was still paper based. Everything would still be progressing at a glacial pace. Time to migrate from the app dev equivalent of the filing cabinet to the cloud.
Just like data storage has been liberated by the cloud, cloud-native frameworks offer the same freedom and flexibility. Data models are simplified and standardized, infrastructure is aligned and adaptable and the migration is stable, secure, and integrated.
4. The proprietary lock-in with IBM has gone
IBM and Red Hat want you to be free because they appreciate that business resilience, adaptability and innovation now require more options. The future is open source. Infrastructure options such as cloud-native, converged and containerized must be invested in and made accessible.
You need consistent and reliable app and analytics performance regardless of your geographic location and connections and quick exchanges of data and resources between these various places and partners must also be possible. You need to migrate and manage your workloads to a cloud-based environment.
5. The final plug - futureproofing
Red Hat-IBM is now offering cloud-native software that provides you with more options and seamlessly upgrades your box from prehistoric to a futuristic enterprise that can build mission-critical applications once and run them on all leading public clouds enjoying continuous integrations and continuous delivery capabilities.
Its secure, reliable, pre-integrated, and autonomous infrastructure is designed to improve your visibility and control across many clouds and platforms, and it makes your business more flexible, compliant, and modernized.
Exploit your assets to greater use, modernize and migrate your IT now so you have investment and resilience protection. It’s time to get with the times and fly in the cloud.
