2013年IBM宣布收购云计算服务商SoftLayer,基于SoftLayer的云服务模型,IBM构建SoftLayer平台上的OpenStack生态圈,而之前OpenStack开源云平台发展迅速,IT巨头们希望借助OpenStack达到和其它电商网站竞争的目的。
IBM认为SoftLayer的裸机云服务能力是SoftLayer与其他云服务商的区别,并将成为IBM与亚马逊AWS以及其他云服务商竞争的关键,IBM把SoftLayer和IBM SmartCloud 合并形成一个全球平台的新部门,并于2013年12月再次投入12美金的巨额资金,在全球范围内建设15个新的云服务数据中心,并计划在2015年向中东和非洲扩张。
此外IBM计划在SoftLayer云服务架构上提供Openstack API,这样用户可以使用行业标准的OpenStack接口访问SoftLayer的云服务。OpenStack将成为IBM云计算战略规划中的关键部分,通过OpenStack,IBM可以以标准化接口将私有云和公有云通过统一的界面提供给用户,为客户提供公共云、私有云及混合云多种选择。

IBM一直是开源世界的推手,而SoftLayer公司是目前全球最大的IDC公司,SoftLayer的数据中心采用40G带宽到机架,100%全思科网络,Cisco ASA硬件防火墙,服务器稳定性好,速度快,美国知名主机商HostEase就提供SoftLayer机房服务器,并且在国内外取得非常好的口碑。
如今IBM借助SoftLayer的硬件平台和OpenStack的开放API,相信IBM在云计算市场的布局已经铺开。
