mission statement

  • #1 software from developers
  • #1 cloud OS
  • #1 linux desktop
  • free software
  • free tools
  • support is optional
  • 100% open source
  • ‘upstream only’
  • hybrid by design
  • latest and greatest linux kernel
  • releases on time, every time
  • feature parity across platforms

Delivering the economics and agility of hyperscale innovators to enterprises globally

infrastructure trends

Hybrid cloud adoption

Private + 2 x Public will be the norm

Containers

All pervasive change to infrastructure

New workloads

Machine learning, Artificial intelligence & Blockchain

Big Software challenge

Sharing of Ops code to be norm

  • Acceleration of use of public IaaS (AWS, Azure, Google) based on developer demand and CTO / CISO

concerns being addressed

  • End state will be hybrid cloud for all orgs (i.e. Private cloud and 2+ public IaaS suppliers)
  • Private IaaS will being aggressively economically benchmarked vs public IaaS. Modernisation

needed

  • Evolving standards to avoid lock-in (i.e. policing of services & APIs being used)
  • Modern app development will be micro-services using containers NOT virtual machines
  • Extensive organisational & developer demand for modern container infrastructure
  • Battle of container schedulers playing out - Both Docker Enterprise Edition & Kubernetes with real

traction

  • Trade-offs between Monolithic PaaS (Pivotal Cloud Foundry & OpenShift) vs CaaS (using a

container scheduler and best in breed workflow solutions). Most orgs will do both.

  • New building blocks driving very significant waves of innovation / disruption
  • ML and AI will be both embedded in ISV provided applications and be used directly by industry
  • GPU acceleration will be common
  • Innovation originates with Hyperscalers and is often open-source
  • The amount & complexity of software that organisations need is increasing exponentially
  • There is a skills gap around development and particularly operations impacting business
  • Recruitment & retention harder than ever - Competition from Hyperscalers and start-ups
  • Will require broad adoption of Netflix / Google style ‘Application / service modelling’

case studies

IBM Beacon Innovation Awards 2017

  • LinuxONE and Ubuntu deliver pervasive encryption of data,

workload isolation with security and massive scalability.

  • Ubuntu provides the platform openness for the community behind

the project

  • Hyperledger Fabric provides the blockchain infrastructure, and

Hyperledger Composer is an extensive, open development toolset and framework to make developing blockchain applications easier

  • LinuxOne and Ubuntu deliver best in class cloud native environment

that is attractive to any public cloud developer.

  • T1RC started to have a too strong dependency of its applications to

Public Cloud.

  • Ubuntu was the platform of choice of the developers who could

leverage a familiar environment on-prem from OS to container

  • rchestration.

Bring your developers from public to private Z cloud with Ubuntu

KVM VMs created and OS deployed into VMs using MAAS API more efficient use of resources by dynamically allocating hardware

MAAS KVM pods support

MAAS - IBM Z and LinuxONE

Configure KVM in Ubuntu host and register KVM in MAAS as a pod (type virsh)

  • Ability to build a HW

heterogeneous cloud including IBM Z managed by MAAS

  • Full cloud experience with MAAS

+ Juju

  • Cross LPARs / servers experience

○ Cloud regions and HA zones

  • Resources allocated only when

needed

  • Benefits from IBM Z scale-up

features

  • Standard PXE boot now available

with KVM for IBM Z
