Making it easier to turn innovative ideas into reality
Today’s products and services have become more personalized and software intensive – just look at how you check out at a grocery store these days or the features of today’s automobiles or how personalized and tuned to customers’ individual needs services have become. There’s no turning back.
To compete you need solutions that make it easier to create software and systems that can turn innovative ideas and new requirements into reality. The key is being able to bring diverse, distributed development teams together to deliver new business products and services faster through collaboration and automation -- and do it while leveraging your existing assets.
IBM Software design, development and deployment solutions provide you with the capability to:
- Improve your responsiveness to business needs by leveraging an open, modular integrated environment
- Improve quality by standardizing on a common set of tools, components and best practices for all platforms
- Achieve faster ROI through flexible reuse and optimization of core assets
Real results
EW AG Corporation, Germany’s leading developer for the energy and utilities industries, is helping its customers be aware smarter about their energy consumption with a “smart box” that interacts with company systems to provide consumers with full visualization of energy usage habits in real time. IBM Software solutions for design, development and deployment and a model-driven testing approach tamed the complexity of the interconnected system and streamlined the development, integration and quality process.
The Palace Museum in Beijing, China wanted to implement a first-of-a-kind, fully immersive, three-dimensional virtual world that re-creates a visceral sense of space and time of The Forbidden City. The museum partnered with IBM to create the first complete virtual world created for a major historical and cultural attraction. The solution is robust; it supports thousands of concurrent users with scalability comparable to that of massive multiplayer games.
