IBM Deutschland GmbH, Booth 4

In IBM's view, today's networked economy has created a global business landscape and a mandate for business change. Integrated global economies have opened markets of new opportunity and new sources of skills. The Internet has enabled communication and collaboration across the world and brought with it a new computing model premised on continuous global connection. In that landscape, companies can distribute work and technology anywhere in the world.

Given these opportunities, IBM is working with its clients to develop new business designs and technical architectures that allow their businesses the flexibility required to compete in this new landscape. The business is also adjusting its footprint toward emerging geographies, tapping their double-digit growth, providing the technology infrastructure they need, and taking advantage of the talent pools they provide to better service the company’s clients.

Our values as IBMers shape everything we do, every choice we make on behalf of this company. Having a shared set of values helps us make decisions and, in the process, makes our company great. But their real influence occurs when we apply these values to our personal work and our interactions with one another and the wider world. IBMers determined that our actions will be driven by these values:

  • Dedication to every client's success
  • Innovation that matters, for our company and for the world
  • Trust and personal responsibility in all relationships

IBM's clients include many different kinds of enterprises, from sole proprietorships to the world's largest organizations, governments and companies representing every major industry and endeavor. The majority of the company's enterprise business, which excludes the company's original equipment manufacturer (OEM) technology business, occurs in industries that are broadly grouped into six sectors:

  • Financial Services: Banking, Financial Markets, Insurance
  • Public: Education, Government, Healthcare, Life Sciences
  • Industrial: Aerospace, Automotive, Defense, Chemical and Petroleum, Electronics
  • Distribution: Consumer Products, Retail, Travel, Transportation
  • Communications: Telecommunications, Media and Entertainment, Energy and Utilities
  • Small and Medium Business: Mainly companies with less than 1,000 employees

About Quotium Data Sentry

Big Data Archives are now reaching huge volumes of data and must have data protection fully embedded into the architecture, as volumes are too large to keep multiple copies.

These archives are storing dozens of petabytes of content : video, audio, scientific data, images, social media data, financial data, corporate data… This content can sit idle for years and then a portion of it becomes required or is more active, triggered by specific events.

As this data is born digital (or being now digitalized), its protection becomes a real challenge. Companies need to keep it in good health, available in the right digital technology and the right format for future use to generate business. This protection process shall be cost effective as IT resources are limited and cannot scale at the speed data is growing.
