IBM在收购的SoftLayer后,对IBM云计算的开展具有战略意义,而最近IBM的云计算战略转型也是都是围绕SoftLayer所展开,可以看出SoftLayer在IBM云计算战略中扮演着多么重要的角色。
IBM宣布SoftLayer正在将IBM Power Systems集成到其云基础架构中,该基础架构将有望超过传统云环境范围提供更加广泛的服务。其发布的全新服务和工具帮助企业部署混合云与私有云环境,而且将充分利用为满足大数据需求所构建的IBM Power Systems系列服务器,从而使其更好地获取、理解和运用不断增加的数据。

另外IBM承诺投资12亿美元扩展全球云业务,特别是计划从全球五大洲15个国家40个数据中心提供云服务,包括北美、南美、欧洲、亚洲和澳洲。从下季度开始,SoftLayer第一种基于Power Systems提供的服务将是IBM Watson解决方案,随后将有更多产品利用Power Systems优化数据和分析的优势。
IBM在宣布正式收购数据库即服务DBaaS提供商Cloudant后,Cloudant DBaaS平台利用SoftLayer云计算平台来创建一个全球性的数据传输网络,使应用程序大幅度扩展且随时可以获取。Cloudant和SoftLayer的搭配显然是IBM有意为之,凭借SoftLayer的云平台,Cloudant的DBaaS服务将会获得强有力的业务支持。
公有云相较于私有云来说,对于IBM的硬件基础设施的进入,从SoftLayer成立之初,就自己设计硬件平台,所以不管是英特尔、AMD还是Power对于SoftLayer已经不存在问题。对于SoftLayer来说,Power只不过是一个计算节点罢了,硬件底层的变化已经不会对本身的服务产生任何影响。
