Now, Blue Box integrates with IBM’s OpenStack private Cloud options where it will sit with subsidiary SoftLayer. “This gives Blue Box access to the whole network of SoftLayer locations,” said Todd Moore, vice president of open technology for IBM. “Enterprises have access to private Cloud as a Service through Blue Box and have its ease of getting onboarded and set up.” Moore spoke to John Furrier and Jeff Frick, cohosts of theCUBE, from the SiliconANGLE Media team, during OpenStack Valley 2015. OpenStack provides much-needed functionality OpenStack serves as the latest example of IBM’s long relationship with open source. “We all realize the benefits of working on the plumbing together, and OpenStack is a good example of that,” said Moore. “That togetherness gives you a much better result. It gives you the functionality that you need, it’s leading edge, and the long-term stable world and the innovative projects can live side by side.” From the outside, it seems risky for IBM to work in open source, but Moore explained that it would be risky not to. “The world’s turned upside down. Now, the user, the developer, has a tremendous amount of power,” he said. “We show them examples of things working, and we have our foot in the door with them. We can be part of their proof of concepts and sales and other things as a result.” @theCUBE #OpenStackSV
