Cloud Adoption has matured enough and now enterprises are looking at Cloud Optimization for costs, scalability, and agility. Some customers are migrating from On-Premise Data Centers to Cloud using Virtual Machines while majority customers are looking at optimizing the move by directly adopting the Containers and Serverless Architectures. IBM CloudPak/Containers have been utilized by many customers over the last 2 years. IBM Containers have been certified to run on OpenShift and other Kubernetes environments. Containers allow us to isolate applications, deploy rapidly, and scale securely in a modular fashion, thereby improving the costs, agility, and flexibility of updates.

Sterling B2B Integrator/Sterling File Gateway 6.1 introduced new certified containers for cloud deployments that include entitlement to the RedHat OpenShift Container Platform. The IBM Containers for Sterling B2B Integrator, Connect Direct, MQ, ICC and WTX are having various options to run them natively even on other Kubernetes environments like AWS EKS, Azure AKS and Google GKE.
