Public cloud gives developers the possibility to provision resources on-demand and only pay for what they use, but what makes up a public cloud?
Recently, I argued why IBM Public Cloud is unique and what makes it an industry-leading platform for businesses to run their applications. In this blog, I will help you break down some basics about the possibilities and technical foundations. Furthermore, I will pinpoint why choosing IBM is something you will not regret.
