Hybrid Cloud is the secure consumption of services from two or
more sources, including private cloud, public cloud, or traditional IT.

“I have apps and data that
must stay on-prem but I want
the Bluemix experience.”
“I want to create new
hybrid applications that
use enterprise data &
services.”
“I want to move fast
but retain control.”

6. Hybrid Cloud – Key Ingredients

Services Integration Portability
Flexible Deployment Models
DevOps + Management
• Bluemix Public and Softlayer deployment
models are just the beginning
• Expanding into domain focus, infrastructure, IaaS+
and SaaS
• Increasing our capability around enterprise and
cloud connectivity
• Making it easy to move applications and services
between different deployments
• Providing common and consistent management
across deployment models

14. On build completion, the
latest artifacts are published
to UrbanCode Deploy and
deployed to a development
or SIT environment.
After deployment, automated
tests are started. If they pass,
we mark the tested versions
as such.
Before any deployments
to production, manual
approvals are required.
The exact combination of
component versions which passed
tests is captured in a snapshot.

28. Amica – Adopts IBM UrbanCode Deploy software to speed software
release processes
“Now, there is always a source of truth that we can go
back to. The UrbanCode Deploy software can give us
a real-time view into our deployments.”
—Greg Calderiso, information systems officer, Amica
InsuranceIBM Systems
RAP14510-USEN-00
The transformation: Issues with the software deployment processes at
Amica resulted in broken deployments that brought testing teams
to a halt and left developers scrambling to troubleshoot the problems.
The company now uses IBM® UrbanCode™ Deploy software to create
consistent, automated and repeatable deployment processes.
Liberates developers
from having to troubleshoot
deployment issues
Slashes downtime
for testers who previously lost
productivity when deployments failed
95 – 98% reduction
in software deployment times
