IBM's two decade long push into services, software, business solutions and cloud computing

01/20/2008

A crisis in the 1990's with declining demand for mainframe computers resulted in the decision to move into business solutions, software and service as a separate product from mainframes. The move into cloud computing continues this trend. IBM has accomplished this with acquisitions, with internal shift of focus, and an increasingly globalized workforce.

Support LyrArc

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
