ARMONK, N.Y., Aug. 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- IBM (NYSE:
IBM) is unveiling a new set of services for IBM's
platform-as-a-service (PaaS), Bluemix, that enable developers to
quickly infuse new analytics capabilities into cloud-based
applications.
The new IBM Cloud tools are designed to help developers broaden
the capabilities of their applications to give users a more robust
cloud experience that enables integration of data analytics and
visualization seamlessly in their apps. They include:
- IBM Streaming Analytics service is now in open beta;
providing capability to instantaneously analyze data, scaling to
thousands of sources, on the cloud. Streaming Analytics service
enables an easier and more efficient way to visualize data. The
service is completely scalable; dynamically building out the
infrastructure as needed, giving developers time to focus on
building important business logic and analytics.
- IBM dashDB™ is a generally available high performance,
massively scalable cloud data warehouse service that enables simple
and speedy information management, analytics and business
intelligence operations in the cloud. Among the updates to dashDB
include:
- Enabling Enterprise Performance: IBM added MPP
(massively parallel processing) capabilities to enable faster query
processing and overall scalability.
- Compatibility Enhancements: With Oracle and Netezza
compatibility, dashDB MPP easily connects with existing database
investments to reach new performance heights built on massively
parallel processing cluster architecture.
- Existing Ecosystem Integration: Businesses can solve
harder problems faster with built-in Netezza analytics libraries,
and integration with Watson Analytics, R, Cognos and third party BI
toolsets including Looker, Aginity Workbench and Tableau. dashDB
can integrate with Twitter data and Open Data, and supports data
preparation with DataWorks.

The developer-friendly, open-standards-based Bluemix catalog
includes over 100 tools and services of the most prominent
open-source technologies combined with IBM and third-party services
that allow developers to build, run and manage cloud applications
with more flexibility. IBM launched Bluemix via a $1 billion investment in 2014, rapidly becoming
the largest Cloud Foundry deployment in the world, and was recently
shown to be growing 10-times faster than the overall PaaS market by
research firm ESG.
Combining Bluemix and IBM Design Thinking methodology, the
Bluemix Garage network creates a bridge between the scale of
enterprises and the culture of startups, by establishing physical
collaboration spaces housed in the heart of thriving
entrepreneurial communities around the world, including successful
implementations in San Francisco, London and Toronto.
