What is IBM's Cloud Computing Reference Architecture?Represents the aggregate experience from hundreds of cloud client engagements and IBM-hosted cloud implementations

–Based on knowledge of IBM’s services,software & system experiences, including IBM Research

Provides prescriptive guidance on how to build IaaS, PaaS, SaaS and service provider clouds using IBM technologies

Reflected in the design of–Clouds IBM implements for clients

–IBM-hosted cloud services–IBM cloud appliances–IBM cloud products

Focuses on cloud specifics–Radical cost reduction–Achievement of high degrees of security, reliability, scalability and control

Consists of multiple detailed documents representing best-of-industry knowledge and insight

–How to architect, design and implement cloudsGovernance

Security, Resiliency, Performance & Consumability

Why Use IBM's CCRA?

The CCRA saves your business time and money by providing detailed documentation on the steps and components required for constructing a Cloud implementation across all deployment models.

Your business can benefit from IBM’s experience in creating Public, Private, and Hybrid Clouds with one common architecture with reusable assets or product recommendations.

Your business receives a quicker start to create an industrial strength Cloud with predefined use cases and documentation on the architectural requirements or decisions that must be made for security, service management, performance scalability, and virtualization.

The CCRA utilizes sound architectural principles to speed development and reduce errors across the entire development process, ensuring designs can scale for efficiencies and can fulfill important Cloud requirements such as elasticity, self-service and flexible sourcing.

The CCRA provides increased business flexibility with a common Cloud reference architecture across all deployment models.
