We want to enable your next billion dollar idea.

It starts with a line of code. Code should be

the focus.

Let’s review some common problems

Prototyping and experimenting costs money

tinkering.

Quickly deploy to the

Cloud and see results

No costs upfront (free

tier) allows freedom to

experiment.

Setting up a deployment environment takes time

Tour of Bluemix

Exploiting advantages of SoftLayer

• Dedicated network backbone – economic and speed benefits apply to

BlueMix

• Bare Metal allow for optimized services (e.g. Hadoop, DB on

iSCSI/SSD)

• Geographic footprint

Catalog: IBM and Third Party

• Watson services

• Enterprise services (Cloud Integration based on CastIron)

Based on open source (Cloud Foundry)

• Possible integration with other PAAS services

Key Bluemix Differentiatiors

Pricing (https://ace.ng.bluemix.net/#/pricing)

30 day free-trial with 2GB of RAM

Free tier: Up to 1125 GB-hours free per month (Allowance varies depending on runtime.)

$0.07 GB-Hour

Services and Add-ons can be priced:

• Flat-rate monthly fee

• Metered, based on usage

• Watson services are free while in beta

Within your app use this link to get best estimate of cost:

Pricing – Example

After the 30 day trial you decide to pay for the next 30 days to run the app you developed. You chose:

– node.js that costs 0.07 per GB-Hour and has 375GB-Hours free allowance/month

– two 512MB instances (i.e 0.5GB RAM instances)

– You run your app for 30 days (720 hours)

Total cost is calculated as follows:

– 2 instances x 0.5GB RAM per instance x 720 hours = 720 GB-hours

– Apply reduction of 375GB-Hours monthly free allowance:

720GB-hours – 375GB-hours = 345GB-hours

– 345GB-hours x 0.07$/GB-hours = $24.15
