IBM's private cloud strategy focuses on providing high value solutions to customers through a workload-optimized platform. The strategy leverages integrated hardware and software to deliver solutions as managed services on either private or public clouds. This allows customers to focus on their applications and requirements while IBM handles the infrastructure details. IBM's vision is to provide these solutions and services across a continuum from private to shared clouds.

• Address new market segments with aaS
• Leverage existing SaaS functions
delivery models
• Leverage turn-key solutions
• Deliver differentiated, higher-value solutions
IT Operations
Goal: Efficient IT
• Extract the most value from HW, SW, labor by virtualizing standardizing, automating, &optimizing
• Improve QoS
• Optimize datacenter footprint by leverage compute resources outside of the datacenter on demand.

Standardization & Automation Requirements
1. Speed - build out environments quickly
• A new application infrastructure should take you minutes, not weeks
2. Repeatability - automation to avoid redundancy
• Your 2nd, 3rd, and Nth environment should be faster to build than your
1st environment
3. Consistency - limit the variables across deployments
• Your configurations should get seamlessly promoted from test -> pre-
production -> production, across different platforms
