The sale of IBM's Qradar is a one-sided win. Not for IBM... but for the Palo Alto network. Palo Alto is about 15 years old with $8B in revenue, growing at roughly 20% YoY. IBM is a 100+ year-old company with $66B in revenue, growing at 2% YoY. Their security revenues have rather fallen recently. For IBM, this is a play of operational efficiency, defining its priorities, and focus. But, for Palo Alto, this is another rocketship deal. It gives them: 💡 Access to a Gartner-leading SIEM solution. 💡 Access to a massive customer base 💡 1000s of IBM sales reps who will now sell Palo Alto solutions.

IBM THINK is happening now in Boston…. Enterprise Customers are firmly supporting a number of key priories regarding AI. 1). TRUST is critical. Both the data used to train models and the governance used to ensure they act consistently in accordance with policies, intent and regulatory environments. 2) OPEN provides critical flexability to use the right model - for the right use-cases. 3) ECONOMICS matter - to go from pilot to production requires both a compelling aggregate business case and efficient inferencing unit-costs.
