IBM and VMware partner to bring applications into the Cloud | #VMworld
by Nelson Williams | Sep 2, 2016
The cloud is real, important and not going away anytime soon. For businesses, though, this presents a problem. Most of their critical applications live inside the firewall. Moving those applications into the cloud is a treacherous process from both a business and technical perspective. Making that road easier would be a great step forward for the cloud.
To shed some light on how IBM and VMware, Inc. are working to solve this problem, John Walls (@JohnWalls21) and John Troyer (@JTroyer), host and guest host of theCUBE, from the SiliconANGLE Media team, visited the VMware 2016 conference in Las Vegas. There, they sat down with Bill Karpovich, GM of the IBM Cloud Platform.
Business and customer relationships
The discussion started as Karpovich explained the relationship between IBM and VMware. IBM and VMware go back a long way, he said. They’re working in the cloud to address something they saw with mutual customers. People wanted a way to take their virtualization running behind the firewall and get that public cloud experience. He stated that this service is now available to the market.
“Customers asked us to work together,” Karpovich said. The benefit customers get is when most of their portfolio is on VMware, the technology gives them the ability to move into the cloud in an evolutionary way while still running on VMware. It’s an opportunity to move their workloads without changing how they do things.
“This VMware play is an on-ramp onto the public cloud,” he said.
The business of clouds
The conversation moved to the topic of what the cloud means for IBM. Karpovich elaborated on the subject, saying there are many types of clouds, but IBM has quietly grown its cloud business. Part of that growth is enabling people to run their traditional technologies while extending their applications to the cloud.
Karpovich stressed there are two things to do in the cloud; build new applications or take existing applications and add the benefits of the cloud environment. Most of the work they’re seeing is people building those new applications. One sees a real evolution and that speaks to the future, he said.
