*For IBMers*

A new way to deliver and run your elastic workloads in your own trusted data centers

Last week, we introduced IBM Cloud Private to help companies create on-premises cloud capabilities similar to public clouds to accelerate application development –with the capability for clients to start on private cloud and easily move to a public cloud. We've differentiated ourselves by building the new platform on the open source Kubernetes-based container architecture and providing an extensive catalog of container-optimized software, databases and services to support enterprise developers.

Take 3 minutes now to catch up on the news that resulted in more than 70 press articles globally –such as these from TechCrunch, Enterprise Times UK and TechTarget –and share this offering with our many clients who have been asking for the capabilities that IBM Cloud Private delivers.
