Cloud Paks · OpenShift · IBM Cloud
IBM workloads, on a hybrid cloud you can operate.
Cloud Paks on Red Hat OpenShift give IBM middleware a consistent runtime across on-prem, private, and public cloud. We design the architecture, migrate the workloads, and stay for Day-2 operations.
Why Cloud Paks still win for IBM estates
Cloud Paks bundle IBM middleware — integration, automation, data, security — into subscription packages that run the same way on-prem and in the cloud. For organizations with significant IBM entitlements, this preserves investment while enabling genuine agility. Cloud Pak subscriptions often include credits toward IBM Cloud infrastructure, unifying license and infrastructure spend.
Five-stage migration framework
A structured, low-risk path from on-prem IBM workloads to hybrid cloud, with governance in every phase.
- Discover — inventory IBM workloads, dependencies, TCO
- Architect — reference architecture, cluster sizing, network design
- Pilot — 2–3 representative workloads, prove performance
- Migrate — phased cutover with regression tests and rollback
- Operate — tuning, FinOps, Instana and Turbonomic for ongoing observability
Day-2 is the actual product
We provide version upgrades, fix packs, capacity planning, and performance tuning so the platform does not rot after go-live. Security is consistent across environments: QRadar, Guardium, and MaaS360 as part of a unified hybrid-cloud control plane, plus IBM Cloud VPC, Satellite, Direct Link, and Transit Gateway when IBM Cloud is in the picture.
