The document discusses IBM's Cloud Paks and multicloud management capabilities. It introduces Cloud Paks as enterprise-ready cloud software solutions that are containerized, certified, and can run on private and public clouds. It then summarizes the key capabilities of several Cloud Paks for applications, data, integration, automation, and multicloud management. It positions IBM as providing solutions for building, deploying, integrating, analyzing, automating, and managing applications and infrastructure across hybrid and multicloud environments.

5. Certification Characteristics
IBM Cloud Pak
Built from IBM Containerized SW products.
Delivers a unified experience for a well-defined
use cases.
• Single install path
• Adds additional IP not available outside the Solution Pak
• Embeds ICP Foundation
• Single, unified experience
• And, all features of IBM enterprise grade certified container SW
Certified Container
Standard for building enterprise-grade,
container software. Delivers a “product
edition” integrated with a platform.
• Production Grade topologies
• Secure from the start, managed over time (image and workload)
• Lifecycle Managed / Upgradable
• Integrated with platform services
• Open Deployment Technologies - Helm (+ operators/brokers)
• Multi Platform / Multi Cloud
• Governed for best practices
• And, all features of Red Hat image certification
Red Hat Certification for Containers
Red Hat based images to be certified on to be
officially supported on OCP
Help ensure that applications (images) are built
and packaged according to Red Hat's
recommended practices.
• Red Hat based images
• Secure / Individual images
• Compliant with Red Hat base image best practices (tags, labels, layers)
• Partner managed health of images
• Partner managed to “up to date” and manage vulnerabilities

7. IBM Multicloud Management
Application
Lifecycle
 How are containers built,
packaged, and deployed
across all clouds?
 How are conditional gates
enforced with tamper-proof
controls?
 How do applications scale
from zero to right-sized on
demand to conserve
resources and costs?
Data
Lifecycle
 How is data preserved and
restored based on system
failures?
 How is data moved to the
right location across a hybrid
architecture?
 How are machine learning
models trained and then
continuously delivered to the
right points of presence?
Security &
Compliance Lifecycle
 How is identity managed across a
hybrid architecture?
 How are the overall compliance
and risk management controls
enforced and audited?
 How are keys and certificates
managed for access and
revocation?
Cluster
Lifecycle
 How are clusters created,
scaled up or down, and
retired?
 How are nodes within the
cluster kept up to date with
the latest operating system
and Kubernetes patches?
 How are costs and tenancy
associated with clusters
maintained?
