Abstract

The IBM z15 is built to support users to deliver mission-critical workloads and services in a hybrid cloud environment. In this article, we describe the new capabilities that are intended to fit the platform into private and public cloud frameworks. This work is rooted in the broader IBM cloud strategy and point-of-view and based on ongoing efforts to identify and address critical pain-points for a key set of enterprise clients through applying Enterprise Design Thinking practices. By outlining the hardware, firmware, and software support added for z15, we show how we have been able to integrate the IBM Z platform into the IBM Cloud infrastructure. We also discuss how cloud-focused technologies and tooling enable users to access, deploy, and lifecycle manage z/OS resources and services for a seamless cloud experience.
