IBM Launches Cloud Satellite
IBM Cloud® Satellite helps you deploy and run applications consistently across all on-premises, edge computing and public cloud environments from any cloud vendor. It standardizes a core set of Kubernetes, data, AI and security services to be centrally managed as a service by IBM Cloud, with full visibility across all environments through a single pane of glass.
The result is greater developer productivity and development velocity. Lumen Technologies partners with IBM to integrate IBM Cloud Satellite with its edge platform enabling clients to harness hybrid cloud services and build innovative solutions at the edge. It will integrate IBM Cloud Satellite with its edge platform enabling clients from 180,000 connected enterprise locations to harness hybrid cloud services and build innovative solutions at the edge.
With the Lumen platform and IBM Cloud Satellite, customers can now deploy data-intensive applications across highly distributed environments such as offices and retail spaces. It will also help enterprises to deliver low latency, at the edge, without compromising on the levels of security, data privacy, interoperability, and open standards of hybrid cloud environments, as per IBM .
Many organizations today operate multiple environments, including on premises, edge and public cloud. Building, deploying and running applications in hybrid and multicloud scenarios can bring challenges that impact performance and user experiences. Examples include:
Latency issues that degrade the response time of mobile payment processing requiring payment receipt acknowledgement in less than two seconds
Data residency laws that require data to remain “in country”
Lack of agility, as applications sprawl across many locations, decreasing development velocity
Lack of visibility, as IT teams may be operating as many as 5 – 8 cloud environments and need visibility of their digital platform and applications for each site
IBM Cloud Satellite addresses these challenges by launching consistent cloud services across any cloud, on premises or at the edge - with speed and simplicity. This is based off the concept of distributed cloud (08:59), defined as the distribution of public cloud services to different physical locations, while the operation, governance and evolution of the services remain the responsibility of the public cloud provider.
IBM Cloud Satellite can help address data privacy and data sovereignty issues for industries like telecommunications, financial services, healthcare, and government. IBM Cloud Satellite can also increase efficiency and security for workloads like online learning, remote work and Telehealth services.
