Last week’s IBM Think 2018 conference brought together numerous IBM partners and other vendors interested in pitching their wares to the crowd of IBM employees, partners, and customers. Densify is cloud-agnostic, and it was at Think touting its support for the IBM Cloud. Nastel is also particularly adept at monitoring transactions within IBM-centric environments, which may include legacy IBM products like IBM MQ (formerly MQSeries), WebSphere Application Server, and DataPower XML appliances. Many IBM customers have one or more of these modules in place, but building new apps on this heterogeneous IBM platform is a complex, difficult task. In reality, the IBM portfolio remains diverse and perhaps overly complicated, and many enterprises have been IBM customers for so long.
