ODM on Cloud for Business Rules Management

Bhaskara Rudraraju
Score 9 out of 10
Vetted Review

Pros and Cons

  • Capacity On Demand to scale up and down environments
  • SaaS model allows our team to have less involvement in managing or controlling the underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating systems, storage, or even individual application capabilities.
  • SaaS model allows our team to worry less about upgrades, fix packs, environment support etc.
  • Logging function: Currently use Kibana Logging Service, but [we expected] this feature to be integrated to ODM on the Cloud Dashboard.
  • Rule Artifacts Metrics should be available from ODM on Cloud Dashboard
  • Performance Improvement: Sometimes we experience very slow response time when using the Decision Center

Blue Box is a great for your changing business needs

Pros and Cons

  • Creating a project and users is very easy and I can manage my configurations anytime, which is ideal.
  • Self-service was a big selling point. At times there are issues that I can't figure out, but for the most part, I'm able to manage everything with little to no assistance.
  • Blue Box is scalable - I can quickly add capacity at any time. Easy to use and navigate.
  • A little on the expensive side, but not bad if you’re a large company.
  • Larger operating systems can take longer to configure. Not a huge problem, but expect to spend some time on it.
  • If you do need support, it can take a while to get the help you need.

About IBM Cloud Private

IBM Cloud™ Private is a scalable cloud platform that runs on users’ infrastructure. It’s built on open source frameworks, like containers, Kubernetes, and Cloud Foundry. In addition, it offers common services for self-service deployment, monitoring, logging and security, and a portfolio of middleware, data and analytics.

Key Features and Benefits

Security
Helps ensure security for data in transit and data at rest across all platform services. All services expose network endpoints via TLS and encrypt data at rest.

Kubernetes container orchestration
Brings orchestration primitives to support, enabling users to run Kubernetes containers in production.

Private Docker image registry
Integrates with the Docker registry V2 API to provide a local registry service that functions similarly to the cloud-based registry service Docker Hub.

A unified installer
Uses an Ansible-based installer to rapidly set up a Kubernetes-based cluster that contains master, worker, proxy, and optional management and Vulnerability Advisor nodes.

Transformation advisor
Provides recommendations for users’ cloud journeys by turning information about their environments and applications into insights.

Monitoring and alerts
Configures Prometheus collectors for custom metrics. Custom metrics help provide insights and building blocks for customer alerts and dashboards.
