Product Details

What is IBM Hybrid Cloud Mesh?

IBM Hybrid Cloud Mesh, a multicloud networking solution, is a SaaS product designed to allow organizations to establish simple and secured application-centric connectivity across a wide variety of public and private clouds, edge and on-premises. It bridges operational silos, giving granular network control to CloudOps and easy-to-consume interfaces to DevOps teams.

Features

  • Single UI Dashboard - This enables CloudOps and DevOps teams to work from the same dashboards. A unified dashboard where DevOps and CloudOps can get all the information they need to keep their hybrid cloud network running smoothly.
  • App to service - Delivers secured application centric connectivity between any app and service. Optimizes connections with zero trust architecture and end-to-end encryption to deliver enhanced security.
  • Hybrid app support - Supports applications deployed on public and private clouds to seamlessly bridge operational silos.
  • CI/CD pipeline integration - Leverages a full set of APIs/CLI to deliver control for IBM Hybrid Cloud Mesh actions by understanding what is deployed, where it is deployed to and when it is deployed.


The solution is used to create app-centric connectivity, or a secure app-centric network overlay in a hybrid, multi-cloud environment. This hybrid network will automatically change as applications move across multiple clouds, ultimately delivering a more consistent and predictable application experience, while improving collaboration between CloudOps and DevOps teams through a single portal.

It allows us to connect to multiple clouds in and out of our network, useful as we have public and private clouds as well as on-premise network equipment. This includes public clouds such as AWS or Azure but also our own locally hosted servers. IBM Hybrid Cloud Mesh helps to reduce complexity in managing these services.
  • Integration of different cloud services
  • Automation to handle routine tasks
  • Oversight of our cloud infrastructure
  • It requires a steep learning curve for IT teams
  • Allow for customizable dashboards or to build custom workflows
  • Continue to invest in AI capabilities to enhance security, optimization and compliance.
It is well suited for organizations that have a need to combine the cloud environments of various sources, whether public or private. If you do not require connectivity between different cloud networks, then obviously this is not a service for you. It also helps having AI enhancing cloud security, for example with threat detection or monitoring.
  • Difficult to measure as it does not result in additional revenue for us
You can also use a product already in the Azure environment, Microsoft Azure Arc. This also allows hybrid cloud management, with focus on security, compliance and connecting data services. This was less relevant for us being not users of Azure.
