Abstract:
The technological innovation, always,
divides the companies and people between
disrupted ones and disrupters ones (the
winners).
Today we show the IBM vision about
technological innovation in the software
related sectors, and how this technology
can contribute to build and improve the
business.
In the same way we will show what are the
implications for our students and our
universities.
Computers are disappearing, the
computational power can be bought in the
cloud.
Reinvent the wheel is not a productive
activity, the modern software systems have
to be composed by services integration and
not only just programming. To reuse
everything can be reused is the mandatory
attitude. So, the importance of the
architectures and of the platforms is more
important than ever.
IBM Bluemix is the IBM digital innovation
platform for the actual and future
business: the place where find the
technology to build new systems and
instrument new business.
