The move is designed to help growing ecosystem develop and modernize application to the IBM cloud.
IBM and CSC have announced that they are building on their long-standing strategic alliance by extending IBM's digital innovation platform, Bluemix, to CSC's strong developer ecosystem to help global customers accelerate their transition to the cloud and modernize their applications. CSC and IBM are partnering together through the CSC IBM Center of Excellence to bring global, end-to-end service capabilities that give clients greater choice, agility, flexibility and cost savings.
Enterprise clients increasingly are adopting as-a-service-based platforms like Bluemix to speed development of cloud-based applications. Using an open environment based on cloud infrastructure from SoftLayer, Bluemix helps both born-on-the-web and enterprise developers build cloud applications with development tools from IBM and its partner ecosystem, cutting deployment time from months to minutes.
