IBM Cloud usage for PPC infrastructure
I am testing it. Building backup servers and clients and virtual tape libraries on both x86 and ppc infrastructures.
- build servers in Power PC architecture (ppc)
- take advantage of IBM datacenters infrastructure around the world
- continue to use your apps running on AIX
- browser interface. a little slow and not many features as Azure has
- better information displayed on web interface. sometimes it does not return an error when it does not create the service.
- current ibm i OS images are not the lastest (not all fixes and patches are applied)
so far from our tests we did not had any issue. So i can´t really tell if we have benefited from it.
It is now being utilized as an inbound reverse proxy for DNS name resolution, TLS endpoints, traffic metrics, intrusion detection, source IP address limitation, and other firewall capabilities through IBM Cloud Internet Services. In addition, using DNS name resolution as a technique of intercepting and proxying requests is not always necessary or acceptable in some situations.
- No restrictions on the source IP address can be applied.
- Intrusion detection is supported by this software.
- Request proxying uses inflexible DNS name resolution.
- Proxies cannot function with wildcard DNS.
- Friendly and straightforward installation directions.

Super secure cloud services
IBM Cloud Internet Services is so far the best problem solver when it comes to providing security for any applications if someone is planning to combine their apps with other IBM app platforms. It is used by my department. Its UI is very interactive and easy to use, plus its security is reliable. I liked its smooth access without interruptions and good data retrieval speed.
- Firewall protection
- App accessibility
- No interruptions in access with well spread data centers
- Add more features to UI
- Easy installation
- Better price plans
IBM Cloud Internet Services can be considered the best problem solver when it comes to taking care of security
for any applications if we are planning to integrate the apps with other IBM app platforms like Watson. We used it in our department. Its UI is very interactive and easy to use; if some more flexibility can be added it will be best, plus its security is reliable. I liked its smooth access without interruptions; good data retrieval speed.

The best solution for security, reliability and performance on IBM Cloud applications.
IBM Cloud is being used by our organization to deploy and manage applications which mainly utilize IBM Watson services such as the Natural Language Classifier and Watson Assistant. We also use IBM Cloud to deploy applications that make use of CouchDB databases through IBM Cloudant. Through IBM Cloud Internet Services, we have been able to ensure that these applications are properly protected from external attacks.
- Integration with IBM Cloud applications
- Easy to manage web application firewall
- Ease of protecting CloudFoundry applications
- Good console UI
- Protection for rare managed service offerings such as CouchDB through IBM Cloudant
- Pricey
- Weak Identity and Access Management
Our organization deploys CloudFoundry and CouchDB-based applications on IBM Cloud, and the integration of IBM Cloud Internet Services has provided the levels of reliability and security that we required for these applications. Through the implementation of Web Application Firewall configurations, we were able to quickly and effectively ensure the security of our CloudFoundry applications, and through DDoS protection we were able to meet the security SLAs for these applications.

Secure and high-performance cloud solution
IBM Cloud Internet Services are being used for the storage of documents on the cloud repository. It is also used as a solution that has the ability to provide security for web properties. It is being used by multiple departments in the organization. It solves the problem of having a secure and globally accessible storage repository. Different options and plans offered help the IT department to best manage these services for the organization.
- Ease of accessibility.
- High performance experience for end-users.
- Dependent on a Chrome browser for good performance.
- Page rule setting difficulties.
As per our network and security team, distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) provided by IBM Cloud Internet Services is imperative in better protection from malicious attempts on the server. Server and network traffic statistics have been better for the last period.

IBM Cloud Internet Services provides a strong feature set for security-conscious users
IBM Cloud Internet Services is currently used as an inbound reverse proxy for DNS name resolution, TLS endpoint, traffic metrics, intrusion detection, source IP address limiting, and other firewall features.
In both single- and multi-tenant scenarios, IBM Cloud Internet Services is provisioned once per IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service cluster (one cluster per single- or multi-tenant solution).
In both single- and multi-tenant scenarios, IBM Cloud Internet Services is provisioned once per IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service cluster (one cluster per single- or multi-tenant solution).
- Supports source IP address limiting.
- Supports intrusion detection.
- Request proxying is done by way of DNS name resolution, which is inflexible.
- Proxy services do not work on wildcard DNS entries.
No benefits at this time as our product is still maturing.

The Cloud Services are ready and secure !!
[Note: reviewer is using a trial version] In the company where I work, we have applications in several public and private clouds from different providers, for purposes of centralizing the administration of the same applications. We are evaluating IBM Cloud Services, so that this is not a headache and there is a single manager for all these clouds solutions. At the moment we are conducting a proof of concept with the services provided by IBM and we hope it will help us quickly in the management of them, so far the management is simple.
- Protection against online threats.
- Domain management through IBM's intuitive interface.
- Prevents interruptions caused by harmful traffic, while allowing good traffic, keeping websites, applications and APIs highly available and high performance.
- Installation guides that are more friendly and simple
- Clearer messages for the installation processes

We chose IBM Cloud and don’t regret it. With some more simplification, it will be 100% ok.
We use IBM Cloud on a production basis, addressing data collected from IOT devices/smartphones and algorithm computing to deliver car driving quality scoring for any motorist. It is used by our back end development team. We deliver real time data analytics to make the roads cleaner and safer.
- Scalability
- High availability
- Local data centers allowing to fulfill customer’s data privacy policies
- Pricing model
- Ability to purchase online directly from IBM (vs corporate wholesaler)
