Business challenge
When large financial institutions expressed interest in adopting its mobile payments solution, Dream Payments needed a fast, flexible way to deploy hosting infrastructure for enterprise customers.
Transformation
Evaluating Amazon Web Services (AWS), IBM and Microsoft offerings, Dream Payments chose an IBM Cloud solution. With IBM Cloud for VMware Solutions technology, the company migrated to an IBM® Bluemix® environment, gaining access to high-performance cloud resources for quick, easy deployment.
“IBM has been a great partner in regards to sharing industry knowledge, opening doors and advising on best practices for migrating to cloud.”
