In the post-pandemic era, organizations around the world have embraced digital transformation at a more rapid pace than ever before. Managing and modernizing critical processes and operations is the key ingredient to driving agility, offering superior customer experiences and reducing costs.

IBM’s hybrid cloud approach on IBM zSystems and IBM LinuxONE with Red Hat® OpenShift gives businesses the flexibility to choose where to deploy workloads: on-premises, on private or on public cloud. Clients and independent software vendors (ISV’s) can take advantage of the hybrid cloud platform to develop new cloud-native applications and modernize existing applications with speed and agility. The enterprise qualities of IBM zSystems  and IBM LinuxONE like best-in-class uptime, security and performance are vital for today’s most critical workloads.

With the IBM LinuxONE Partner Network (LPN) program, IBM has been working closely with ISVs to ensure applications developed for these platforms provide additional value to customers.

LinuxONE Partner Network reimagining the ISV journey

Since its launch in April 2021, LPN has evolved to be a single-stop portal for ISVs to gain self-serve access to the expanding IBM zSystems and Linux application market.

The new LPN release offers ISVs IBM Cloud® Hyper Protect Services in addition to LinuxONE VM’s and Red Hat OpenShift environment to build, market and grow their solutions.

Some of the benefits that ISV’s enjoy by joining the LPN include:

• Build smarter – Gain quick access to the IBM LinuxONE platform and IBM Cloud Hyper Protect Services for faster application development and certification.
• Market faster – Activate go-to-market programs to promote solutions and win new customers with customized ISV-ready marketing campaigns on My Digital Marketing.
• Accelerate growth – Create new revenue streams by publishing ISV solutions on IBM Cloud Catalog and Red Hat Marketplace
