IBM
Hybrid cloud, AI, and enterprise IT platform
About
IBM was incorporated in 1911 and has evolved from hardware and mainframes to a hybrid cloud and AI company. Core offerings include the IBM Cloud and Red Hat OpenShift for hybrid infrastructure, watsonx for enterprise AI and data, IBM Consulting for transformation services, and IBM Z mainframes for mission-critical transaction processing. Watson-era AI now underpins watsonx.ai, watsonx.data (lakehouse), and watsonx.governance. IBM serves enterprises across banking, healthcare, government, and manufacturing, differentiating from AWS and Azure through multi-cloud neutrality, hybrid cloud interoperability, and deep enterprise services integration.
