This document discusses IBM's hybrid multicloud platform and digital transformation. Some key points:
- IBM's hybrid multicloud platform is founded on Red Hat technologies like Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Red Hat OpenShift which allow applications to be built once and deployed anywhere across public clouds, private clouds, and on-premises.
- The platform provides consistent management, security, and services across heterogeneous cloud environments from different vendors through an open, standards-based approach.
- A case study describes how Deutsche Bank used Red Hat solutions to build an application platform that streamlined development, improved efficiency, and allowed applications to be developed 2-3 weeks instead of 6-9 months.
Continuous Delivery on IBM Bluemix: Manage Cloud Native Services with Cloud N...Michael Elder
Â
Development teams want to move quickly. Operations teams want to move forward with effective risk management. How do you balance these concerns? With IBM Continuous Delivery for Bluemix, developers are empowered to deliver changes at cloud speed, while release managers can establish policies that ensure compliance with standards. Promotions can be automated all the way to production while enforcing team policies around test coverage and automated test success. And of course, environment inventories are always just a click away. In this talk, youâll learn how to enable your enterprise teams to deliver like a startup, without violating corporate regulations like separation of duties.
How do you deliver your applications to the cloud?Michael Elder
Â
Cloud, Docker, Bluemix, and DevOps. You feel the pressure of a hyper-competitive marketplace, and you want to win. Your goal is to deliver apps to that make your users happy and excited about your brand and products, but how do you do that? In this talk, we'll provide a technical briefing for how you can use a DevOps-enabled toolchain to deliver your apps with speed and reliability to the cloud platform of your choice. We'll review how UrbanCode Deploy can deliver your applications to OpenStack, IBM SoftLayer, Amazon, and VMWare with a consistent and portable Infrastructure-as-a-Service approach; or how you can use Containers and Cloud Foundry for app tiers that change potentially many times a day. Weâll also focus in on some exciting new capabilities on our roadmap around Toolchains, Pipelines, Insights, and Releases.
Come take a look and ask your questions, and hopefully come away with a game plan to improve your delivery process today.
DevOps within the Hybrid Cloud Deploying to the VMware Platform on the IBM CloudMichael Elder
Â
Delivering quickly means leaving automation across applications and infrastructure as a wholistic approach to development, test, and operations. At IBM, we've made it easy to extend your existing VMware platform onto IBM Cloud - from provisioning new VMware clusters with vRealize Automation management all the way through deploying and operating your applications using IBM UrbanCode Deploy, the market leading DevOps release automation provider. We'll show you how to optimize existing app delivery processes without significantly re-architecting what you're running today. We will demonstrate how the creation of infrastructure automation can be done seamlessly onto the Cloud Foundation platform with direct UrbanCode integration into vRealize.

An architectâs guide to leveraging your incumbencyMichael Elder

O'Reilly Software Architecture Conference 2018 (London)
Continuous delivery for 12-factor Microservices works because itâs by design. When you can architect a solution for continuous delivery, you control all the angles but what do you do when you donât have that luxury? This session will highlight how modernizing existing IT infrastructure with containers enables you to manage change through continuous delivery and reduce ongoing operational costs.
Abstract
While the industry has promoted a dramatic trend to build new, improved styles of architecture; there remains a gap in how to address the ongoing and continuous improvement and operation of existing enterprise IT systems alongside these new 12-factor apps.
In this session, we will review why 12-factor apps are a natural fit for Kubernetes by design. We will demonstrate how Kubernetes addresses virtually all of the 12 factors for scalable web apps. Then we will take a step back and consider the important question: how well will stateful and transactional workloads that were not designed for 12-factor be able to run within Kubernetes?
Even with purist gaps from 12-factor for traditional enterprise workloads, there are real benefits to velocity and cost management to move stateful and transactional workloads to containers. With a container based orchestrator like Kubernetes, all workload types can take advantage of automated DevOps release pipelines, provide rich feedback loops with canary testing, leverage better automated failure recovery in production, and provide easier visibility into the operational health of services running within Kubernetes. Leveraging a standard platform for a blend of architectural types enables an enterprise to standardize operational practices for across the board. The end result might be the right path for your enterprise to drive your digital transformation.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

The foundations of the digital enterprise
Digital transformation is not a new concept for most IT leaders.
Itâs a journey they have been on for 5ââ10 years, driven by the
need to better serve clients, improve competitive advantage
and accelerate growth. That journey, though, is unique for each
enterprise. Itâs also specific to the various factors that define
an organization: the industry, business model, regulatory
environment, processes and culture.
While each journey is different, there are consistent patterns
across large to midsize enterprises:
⢠Cloud is strategic to virtually every digital transformation
journey because it provides rapid access to new
technologies from a limitless range of sources, helping
speed innovation and time to market.
⢠Data of all kindsâweather, social, Internet of Things (IoT),
patient, partnerâis at the heart of every transformation.
It fuels the insights needed to help automate business
processes, make informed decisions and personalize
client experiences.
⢠The blend of hybrid cloudâpublic and private clouds
used together, and multicloudâadoption of multiple
public cloudsâis making hybrid multicloud environments
the new normal.
This first chapter in digital transformation can be characterized
as borderless and heterogeneous, embracing technologies
and data, on premises and off, from many providers.
3. IBM Cloud 3
The new hybrid multicloud reality
While heterogenous environments are not new, the need
for visibility and control across a growing number of
external providers, proprietary tools and technologies
is a key difference.
In fact, 94 percent of enterprises today have a mix of cloud
modelsâpublic, dedicated, private and hybrid. Sixty-seven
percent of enterprises are using multiple public clouds,
mixing software, infrastructure and platform services from
different providers. While only 20 percent of core business
applications and workloads have moved to the cloud, with
80 percent still residing on premises in data centers.
This new hybrid and multicloud reality brings with it new
considerations for IT leaders who must continue to operate
business as usual, while embracing greater complexity. In
an IBM study, 82 percent of IT leaders expressed concerns
about how theyâll connect traditional IT with these clouds
to address their specific use cases. Seventy-three percent
needed better ways to move apps, workloads and data
between clouds so they can adapt to change, optimize costs,
and minimize lock-in risk. Sixty-seven percent worried about
how theyâll manage this new mix of cloud environments in
a consistent way, across vendors, without impacting service
quality, security and compliance.
Fundamentally, this shift from traditional on-premises
environments to hybrid, multicloud environments brings
with it very real architectural considerations.
Designing for a hybrid multicloud world
Hybrid cloud allows for a mix of cloud environmentsâpublic,
dedicated, privateâall working together on and off premises.
Multicloud enables choice of cloud-based technologiesâ
artificial intelligence(AI), blockchain, IoT, analytics,
infrastructure and platform as a service (PaaS) from more
sources. This is where the unique nature of every digital
transformation journey gets interesting, as it dictates the
range and specificity of use cases you need to address as
an enterprise.
Letâs explore some common hybrid and multicloud use cases:
⢠Data and AI. Enterprises are embracing more data sources
on the cloud, combining it with existing data on premises,
and applying analytics and AI on cloud to drive new insights.
⢠SaaS integration. As more workloads move to software
as a service (SaaS), itâs become critical to connect them
to other SaaS or existing apps and data on public, private
or traditional IT in a consistent and repeatable way.
⢠Enhance legacy. With 80 percent of applications still on
premises, many enterprises use public cloud services, like
natural language processing (NLP), image recognition and
short message service (SMS) to create new mobile-friendly
front ends that deliver new capabilities quickly to clients.
⢠Cloud scaling. To accommodate peaks in demand, such
as seasonal and holiday traffic to websites, enterprises
are using public cloud compute on demand to scale
on-premises private clouds and traditional IT.
âMulticloud is no longer a matter of
âifââitâs a matter of âwhenâ. Multicloud
computing lowers the risk of cloud
provider lock-in, and can provide
service resiliency and migration
opportunities, in addition to the core
cloud benefits of agility, scalability
and elasticity.â
âSanthosh Rao, Senior Director Analyst, Gartner
4. 4 Enterprise digital transformation with cloud
⢠Disaster recovery. To manage risk from disruptive events,
organizations are implementing complete failover sites on
public and private clouds that can accommodate outages
of core business systemsâwhether theyâre on premises,
on public or traditional IT.
⢠Hybrid DevOps. As the need for rapid innovation increases,
developers are embracing public cloud infrastructure as a
service (IaaS) and PaaS for speed, often in a follow-the-sun
approach, as well as deploying on premises to meet security,
compliance and business needs.
⢠Composite multicloud. With increased competition and new
technologies available from more cloud sources, enterprises
are building differentiating composite applications using
the best microservices from different vendors and across
on-premises and off-premises cloud environments.
⢠Optimization. As business needs change, organizations are
optimizing for cost, performance or compliance by moving
workloads to the lowest-cost provider, best-performing or
most-compliant cloud model, for example, private cloud.
⢠Edge computing. With data being generated in mass
scale from IoT, organizations are managing the cost and
performance of applications that rely on this distributed
data by using edge computing to process and send back
less data in a hybrid model.
While not all use cases apply to every organization,
understanding your requirements will make it is easier to
determine the best-fit approach to hybrid for your organization.
Hybrid monocloud and hybrid multicloud
Gartner defines two types of hybrid cloud: hybrid monocloud
and hybrid multicloud. These types are loosely defined as
follows, but the specific implementation can vary depending
on the provider.
Hybrid monocloud is a like-for-like model in which a cloud
provider offers the same consistent, proprietary software and
hardware stack running on premises as whatâs available on its
public cloud. The two environments are tethered to each other
to form a hybrid environment, which is typically managed from
the public cloud using public cloud management capabilities.
In essence, the hybrid model is an extension of the public
cloud to on premises.
If you have a cloud strategy that embraces infrastructure,
platform, and SaaS from a single vendor, there are real
advantages to a hybrid monocloud approach. You have a
single vendor to procure, bill and support with a consistent
approach to develop, integrate, deploy, secure and manage
applications and data, enabling greater efficiencies across
your staff and potentially greater economies of scale overall.
Hybrid multicloud is an open standards-based software stack,
typically based on Kubernetes, that can be deployed across
virtually any public cloud infrastructure and on premises. These
two environments are tethered to form a hybrid environment,
so management can be done on premises or off premises,
but also across multiple cloud providers using the same
management tools. A hybrid multicloud environment is,
therefore, agnostic to the cloud provider and infrastructure.
If you have multiple cloud providers today, then a hybrid
multicloud approach offers distinct advantages. You
can address more use cases while mitigating the risks
associated with a single vendor approach, such as vendor
lock in or a single point of failure. Like hybrid monocloud
environments, you can develop, integrate, deploy, secure
and manage consistently. However, this method extends
across all your cloud vendors, granting you access to new
cloud technologies and data from more sources. Plus, you
have the ability to move workloads between clouds and
vendors as needed to optimize for performance, costs,
security or compliance needs.
The advantages of cloud-native development
When we think about the term cloud native, weâre talking
about designing applications optimized to run in the cloud.
Microservices represent the cloud-native approach of choice
for developing new applications, but also for modernizing
existing applications. Microservices allow developers to
quickly iterate and deploy enhancements to an applicationâs
code on a continuous basis, without having to touch or
simultaneously modernize other parts of the application.
In essence, update only what you need, using whatever
programming language you want, and deploy new value to
clients quickly and continuously without waiting one to two
years for a major release. Further, each microservice can
be scaled or replicated independently, allowing for a much
better use and allocation of infrastructure resources.
5. IBM Cloud 5
Modernization can be done without containers, but containers
can offer a strategic advantage in the short and long term.
Unlike virtual machines (VMs), which each requires its
own operating system, containers are lighter weight and
allow enterprises to compartmentalize microservices with
dedicated resources. Furthermore, they deploy without the
added expense, performance impact or space consumed by
replicating the operating system for each microservice you
want to replicate or scale. On an enterprise-wide scale, the
return on investment (ROI) implications are significant.
Perhaps the biggest benefit of a cloud-native approach based
on microservices and containers is the least well known.
Yes, speed and continuous delivery of enhancements to
microservices is critical, but it doesnât represent the potential
long-term strategic advantage at an enterprise level. If you can
containerize microservices, you can now build applications that
live in a distributed state essentially anywhere, on almost any
environment. This versatility means that some applications
can reside on premisesâclose to sensitive dataâwhile some
data can reside on a public cloud, anywhere around the globe,
closer to your end user. At the same time, others can live on
the edge, a critical component of IoT. So, now you can mix
and match cutting-edge technologies from different cloud
vendorsâAI, blockchain, IoT, analytics, securityâsourcing
the best and latest technology innovations to build truly
differentiating client experiences. You can also drive greater
insights from a mix of data sources from virtually any data,
anywhere, in the cloud or not. In contrast, single-vendor
application innovation doesnât compare.
Cloud-native development and modernization practices also
bring opportunities to radically rethink and improve security
practices for building, deploying and managing enterprise
applications. Traditional perimeter-based security controls
and infrastructure practices are shifting to data and workload-
centric cloud security policies, technologies and practices.
As application teams are empowered with greater security
responsibility and accountability within DevOps process,
itâs fostering new DevSecOps practices that enable stronger
continuous security.
The next chapter in digital transformation
Build once. Deploy anywhere
The first chapter of enterprise digital transformation was
characterized by rapid adoption of cloud-based technologies
and data from more sources to better serve clients, improve
competitive advantage and accelerate growth. Yet today,
only 20 percent of workloads have moved to the cloud. The
next chapter in digital transformation aims to modernize and
bring the value of cloud to the 80 percent of applications and
workloads that remain on premises. This shift requires a better
approach for developing and deploying across a hybrid and
multicloud worldâan approach that offers choice, without
sacrificing visibility and control.
Fundamental to success is the consistency enabled by open
standards, such as container orchestration platforms like
Kubernetes. With it, enterprises can modernize application
and data architectures consistently regardless of where
they reside. Developers can build applications once and
move them freely across clouds and vendors. Because the
approach is standardized, visibility and control are achievable
everywhere, making it possible to create composite
applications using the latest technology from essentially
any vendor. By design, open standards democratize how
enterprises approach digital transformation.
âItâs not just about getting closer to the
people we serve and understanding
them, itâs also about driving an
agenda that lets us source in the
business and technology capabilities
that we need to serve them as well
as possible.â
â Claus Jensen., CTO, CVS Health
6. 6 Enterprise digital transformation with cloud
Open source leads the way
Most public cloud providers offer a proprietary, monocloud
platform to develop applications, with a choice of infrastructure
limited to one vendor. Open source ecosystems, however, can
accelerate innovation by bringing together the expertise and
collective power of many to advance consistent platforms for
all enterprises.
In fact, today Linux, an early open source project, is the
number one development platform, with 54 percent of all
applications developed on Linux, and 79 percent of container
hosts on it. Red Hat Enterprise Linux is the leader in Linux,
available on all public cloud platforms. Red Hat is also a top
two contributor to Kubernetes open source, which forms the
foundation for Red Hat OpenShift, the leading hybrid cloud,
container, and Kubernetes application platform. Its broad
accessibility makes it easy to consistently build and deploy
not only on essentially any public cloud, but on premises, as
well. As such, itâs broadly adopted and used by enterprises,
including 100 percent of the Fortune Global 500 airlines,
telcos, commercial banks, healthcare organizations, and
the US executive government.
The IBM hybrid multicloud platform
IBM believes that to address the needs of every enterprise,
its approach to cloud must be grounded in five key principles
that reflect the current reality IT leaders deal with every day:
⢠Hybrid. Enable enterprises to work across public, private
and traditional environments.
⢠Multicloud. Manage other vendorsâ clouds, acknowledging
the reality that client environments are heterogeneous.
⢠Open. Build capabilities that are open by design, enabling
client flexibility and reducing vendor lock in.
⢠Security. Provide reliability and continuous security across
our clientâs complete environment.
⢠Management. Offer consistent service-level support, logging,
management and delivery across cloud environments.
Red Hat is the foundation
The foundation of the IBM hybrid multicloud platform is an
infrastructure-independent common operating environment
that runs virtually anywhereâfrom essentially any data
center to multiple clouds to the edge. It lets you select
the best architecture and approach to address the most
critical application, data and workload requirements of your
business. The foundation consists of Red Hat Enterprise
Linux to build virtually anywhere, and Red Hat OpenShift
for application, workload and data portability.
Developers can access languages, databases and tooling they
already use, including public cloud services through the service
broker. Common services enable self-service deployment,
monitoring, logging and security. Standardized workflows,
support for multiple environments, continuous integration
and release management, help you simplify management
of the development lifecycle. Multicluster management lets
you visualize all your distributed application components.
This Red Hat foundation enables you to realize greater agility,
speed of innovation and economies of scale across your
vendors and clouds. With it, enterprises like UPS and BBVA
cut development time for new applications down from months
to mere weeks, reduced platform deployments to hours, and
cut application build costs by up to 60 percent.
âIBM Cloud allowed us to avoid any
security or regulatory issues by
keeping customer data on premises.
That was key for us.â
â Leo Frey, Head of Digital Platforms, Allianz Taiwan Life Insurance Co. Ltd.

Deutsche Bank streamlines development
platform, democratizes IT
Overview:
As a leading bank, serving private, corporate and fiduciary
clients, Deutsche Bank has embraced digital transformation.
The bank wanted to improve the experience of its banking
customers and users of its back-end technology, including
employees and external providers and developers who
use the platform to build and run applications. Using Red
Hat solutions, Deutsche Bank built an open source PaaS to
simplify DevOps collaboration, optimize capacity and increase
efficiency, cutting end-to-end application development time
from 6â9 months to 2â3 weeks.
Challenge:
Deutsche Bank wanted to shorten development cycles to get
products to market faster. But its restrictive infrastructure
made integration difficult and application development slow.
Managing thousands of servers and databases hindered growth
and the adoption of emerging technology. âMany operating
systems were being used across multiple data centers,â said
Emma Perkins, PaaS portfolio manager at Deutsche Bank. The
bank also wanted to replace its traditional waterfall processes
with a DevOps approach. To meet these needs, Deutsche Bank
sought to establish a PaaS that would streamline development
and management, reduce risk and scale easily to support more
agile work across its business.
Solution:
Deutsche Bank chose Red Hat to help build Fabric, a
containerized, microservices-based application development
platform. Fabric hosts systems and tools and offers on-
demand compute for every application development team
at the bank. âRed Hat offered that combination of open source
with vendor support, patching and managementâall of the
things that we need in a regulated enterprise,â said Tom
Gilbert, managing director, global head of cloud, application,
and integration platforms with Deutsche Bank. âThe shift from
virtual machines to containers, and traditional applications
to microservices, is a big one. We needed a partner that
could help us build our deployment capabilities and train
our global developer base so we could get maximum value
from our investment.â
Results:
Fabric provides faster resource access, helping developers
work more efficiently and speeding time to market. Instead
of 6â9 months, applications now go from proof of concept
to production in 2â3 weeks. âWhat weâve set out to do with
Fabric and OpenShift is to democratize IT,â said Gilbert.
âWeâve given access to powerful technologies to every
developer at the bank.â In addition, Deutsche Bank simplified
DevOps collaboration with flexible integration and an agile
approach. The bank also streamlined resource access,
optimizing its use of data center and cloud capacity, saving
time, money and resources. âWeâre running a global platform
thatâs supporting thousands of applications with a single
operating model and a large number of workloads on a small
portion of infrastructure,â said Gilbert. âItâs efficient from
both a utilization and cost point of view.â
âWeâve never provided capabilities
across so many infrastructure
providers or capabilities for devel-
opers to actually develop with the
platform weâre providing. All of this
happened because we started using
Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform.
Itâs setting us apart from competitors
because weâre able to make changes
quickly, effectively, and efficiently.â
â Emma Perkins, PaaS Portfolio Manager, Deutsche Bank
