IBM expands Big Data Portfolio in India

Aiming to help companies to solve IT operations and issues more quickly and effectively, IBM has announced the launch of IT Operations Analytics in India. This new category of software leverages both cognitive computing and predictive analytics to help companies more easily predict and respond to opportunities and challenges hidden in data. The new software will help a company predict future outcomes, search and discover, and optimize its IT infrastructure by unlocking insights within the data generated by systems, files, databases and servers.
 
IBM has a rich heritage of innovation in applying analytics to numerous areas and industries. Now, we are extending that expertise to IT Operations data. By applying cognitive intelligence to clients’ IT infrastructure, they are now able to gain valuable insights from Big Data, instead of just focussing on how to cope with its volume. This access to real-time knowledge can help predict and prevent IT downtime, improve productivity and generate cost savings, and is something no other vendor can provide, said Omkar Nimbalkar, Director, Cloud, Smarter Infrastructure & Security Software, India Software Labs, IBM India.
 
There are three new offerings in the IT Operations Analytics family. The first, IBM SmartCloud Analytics  Predictive Insights, captures IT operations data (which most businesses currently typically discard or archive) and sifts through it in real time, spotting trends which are critical to network performance. 
  
IBM's business partners can take advantage of the new IT Operations Analytics software to differentiate managed service offerings. Through IBM’s India Software Labs, companies can leverage the SmartCloud Analytics offerings and local IBM expertise to gain insights from their volumes of IT operations data, bringing intelligence and efficiency to their IT infrastructures and, in turn, their business operations.
