Data has the power to transform the way the world works, connecting people, information, objects and ideas in real-time to improve efficiencies, eliminate waste and create new value. After years of theorising about the possibilities of a connected world, a new infrastructure paradigm is maturing as we speak and providing the framework to deliver the promise of a smarter planet. Welcome to the era of the cloud. Some people believe cloud computing has the potential to improve business flexibility while reducing operating costs. IBM has the experience and expertise to ensure this potential is realised, yet we also believe cloud offers a truly new way of thinking about the modern enterprise. Ultimately, we believe cloud computing has the potential to completely re-shape the business landscape.

An emerging compute model-cloud computing-addresses the explosive growth of internet-connected devices, and complements the increasing presence of technology in today's world. Cloud computing is massively scalable, provides a superior user experience, and is characterised by new, internet-driven economics.

Cloud represents a paradigm shift in the consumption and delivery of IT services. Built on the foundation of a dynamic infrastructure, IBM Smart Business cloud solutions are workload optimised and provide a choice of delivery options.
