A new era of computing Previously SugarCRM required the customer to install the middleware manually. Now Sugar can provide complete End to End provisioning, reducing the typical deployment time from 2-3 days to 10 minutes. IBM PureSystems provides amulti-platform environmentthat is ideal for Infor's integrated industry suites, with optimized performance managed through a unified management structure. Together, IBM’s PureFlex platform and Juniper Networks’ QFabric and vGW Virtual Gateway help customers accelerate their cloud computing initiatives by redefining security and application scalability. Once enabled on IBM PureSystems, the cross public cloud and private deployment options enable The Innovation Group to explore further deployment opportunities in the US market using IBM Smartcloud Enterprise. IBM's PureFlex System will enable our clients to tune their server and storage infrastructures, matching the various SAP workloads onto an IBM PureFlex optimized system. It promises to be a new way of simplifying the deployment and management of enterprise applications. Fully automated system deployment enables rapid customer on-boarding which is repeatable and doesn’t force a labor based growth strategy. This allows Kingdee to control its cost while growing their revenue.

Good candidates for PureFlex System Have applications that are only available on Power or system i and therefore not immediate candidates for Application System Heavy dependency of 3rd party competitive middleware (Oracle) Middleware / Tools providers who do not leverage IBM middleware Want to create an integrated solution that they can sell & own end client relationship Working with ISVs 55 ISVs available for launch PureFlex System provides a flexible infrastructure offering for ISVs that want to create bundled solutions that they co-market / co-sell with IBM. New Virtual Appliance Toolkit available now
Good candidates for PureApplication System Working with ISVs • Enterprise Focused and aligned to Industry client initiatives • On-premise deployment model • Runs on Intel (and Power for 2H’12) • Java Application • Utilizes at least one IBM middleware (WAS, DB2, Informix) and/or open to supporting IBM middleware • Does not require 3rd party competitive middleware (i.e. Oracle) SMB focused applications (e.g. Intuit) 80 ISVs available for launch PureApplication System represents a significant opportunity for us to engage ISVs in an IBM Core Run Time discussion based on superior client experience and IBM go to market support
How can you enable you app on Pure AppSystem? 1. Adopt a pattern – Start with Virtual App Pattern first Virtual App Pattern (VAP) • Enable your web based app using built in JEE web apppattern directly or create new plugin to fully customize its user experience. • Web app pattern support limited WAS+DB2 configuration • Built in scaling policy and highest level of automation. Virtual System Pattern (VSP) • Enable your app using bundled HV images AND creating script package. • More flexible WAS+DB2 configuration, ISV can also add its own middleware via customized image • Manual implementation of elasticity and limited built in automation. Recommended
Where can I start? 2. Pick a enablement method – use IIC if you can
Next Steps • Nominate your solution to be Ready for IBM PureSystems • Work with an IBM Innovation Center to complete a readiness assessment • Build your ISV Application pattern and test on IBM PureSystem • Build your IBM PureSystem Centre entry • Become Ready for IBM PureSystems and go to market with IBM Contact your IBM representative, your local IBM Innovation Center or visit ibm.com/partnerworld/puresystems to get started
