The cloud native operating model is changing the way businesses operate and compete globally. It provides flexibility and speed, aligning with business strategies to create a unified and agile infrastructure. As businesses grow and evolve, cloud native platforms offer the scalability needed to manage fluctuating workloads, allowing them to adjust resources in response to changing demands.
Kyndryl, the world's largest IT infrastructure services provider, recently acquired Skytap, a privately held Seattle company that helps organizations move operations to the cloud. This acquisition will expand Kyndryl's hybrid cloud solutions portfolio, providing customers with the flexibility they need to scale their workloads up and down within Azure, using its modern features for surrounding applications.
Dave Simpson, Global Cloud Practice Leader at Kyndryl, said that the expanded portfolio will offer a more integrated service offering, with Skytap's unique IP enabling an easier transition to the cloud.
"Kyndryl and Skytap are a natural fit, and we are excited to join forces," said Brad Schick, CEO of Skytap. "Kyndryl's industry-leading services are ready to lead businesses through cloud migration and modernization utilizing Skytap's capabilities for running complex workloads in supported hyperscaler environments."
Here, Simpson talks about the synergies between the two companies, hyperscaler growth and the future of cloud at Kyndryl.
