Platform as a Service: The IBM point of view

The Platform as a Service market has lagged the Software as a Service and Infrastructure as a Service segments in customer adoption. The team at IBM believes that a key reason for this is that today’s public cloud implementations of PaaS lack the ability to cover current and new-application use cases simultaneously. Leaders at many enterprises are interested in becoming service providers for their organizations; they are interested in implementing a private PaaS along with consuming platform services. IBM leadership takes a broader point of view on Platform as a Service, including the service provider and the consumer perspective, with a definition that can support existing enterprise applications that are moving to the cloud.
