Now an enterprise can easily use these IBM products as a utility. As IBM adds more of their products into the mix, cloud transition offerings (enterprise-to-cloud or cloud-to enterprise) will follow.
This also represents a huge turning point for cloud interoperability. IBM’s enterprise footprint paired with Amazon’s established lead in infrastructure-as-a-service could create a de facto standard within the cloud computing community.
I’m not sure if this is good or bad, but it is definitely a huge event.
