Core capabilities of IBM Satellite
Use your AWS, Azure or Google Cloud infrastructure, your on-premises hardware or purchase from IBM or IBM partners.
Provision API-driven cloud services to all locations, operated as-a-service by IBM.
Use a single dashboard to centralize observability and management across all locations.
Extend access policies, logging, monitoring and other controls to all locations.
Take a guided tour through the Satellite GUI demo environment. Enabling the full screen mode is recommended.
How it's used
Unlock insights with cloud services access to your on-Premises data
Use Satellite Connector to utilize IBM Cloud services like watsonx and Cloud Pak for Data, among others, to generate insights from your on-prem resources, keeping the security and auditability of Satellite communications but with the lightest possible footprint.
Consume public cloud services in your data center
Bring the flexibility and agility of public cloud services to your secure on-premises data center. Build new apps quickly, while maintaining strong regulatory controls.
Get real-time analytics at the edge
Process data where it's generated to reduce latency for immediate action. Expand to new locations instantly and manage it all from a single console.
Leverage an open architecture
Run workloads consistently across the globe through highly distributed 5G deployments. Know which applications are running, where they run and when they run. Improve auditability.
Persistent connectivity
IBM Cloud Satellite Connector maintains data sovereignty with on-premises applications and services while connecting securely over a public network interface.
Bring AI to your data
Use a consistent set of data and AI services across all your environments. Bring analytics tools to your data to reduce latency, limit data egress charges and meet residency requirements.
