IBM Unveils New Open Software: SmartCloud Orchestrator

IBM has disclosed plans to make all of its cloud services and software based on an open cloud architecture.

“This move will ensure that innovation in cloud computing is not hampered by locking businesses into proprietary islands of insecure and difficult-to-manage offerings. Without industry-wide open standards for cloud computing, businesses will not be able to fully take advantage of the opportunities associated with interconnected data, such as mobile computing and business analytics,” the company said.

As the first step, the company today unveiled a new private cloud offering based on the open sourced OpenStack software that speeds and simplifies managing an enterprise-grade cloud.
Robert LeBlanc, IBM senior vice president of software, said:
Just as standards and open source revolutionized the Web and Linux, they will also have a tremendous impact on cloud computing. IBM has been at the forefront of championing standards and open source for years and we are doing it again for cloud computing.
The winner here will be customers, who will not find themselves locked into any one vendor -- but be free to choose the best platform based on the best set of capabilities that meet that needs.
Based on customer-driven requirements, the new software, called IBM SmartCloud Orchestrator, gives clients greater flexibility by removing the need to develop specific interfaces for different cloud services.

With the new software, companies can combine and deploy various cloud services onto the cloud infrastructure by lining up the compute, storage and network resources with an easy-to-use graphical interface.
