IBM Cloud Security Broker, Db2 Warehouse, M365 Backup

Key Points

  • IBM Cloud Data Security Broker (now in beta) acts as a reverse‑proxy “broker” between applications and data stores to provide field‑level encryption, masking and tokenization without any changes to application code, supporting both BYOK and KMS key models.
  • The third‑generation IBM Db2 Warehouse separates compute from cloud‑native object storage, cutting storage costs and boosting performance while letting users independently scale compute and storage and work with open table formats such as Iceberg, Parquet, and JSON.
  • IBM Db2 Warehouse also adds cataloging, ingest, query, and data‑sharing capabilities, giving organizations a cost‑optimized, always‑on analytics platform for real‑time decision‑making.
  • Microsoft 365 Backup as a Service, launched on the IBM Cloud Marketplace through a partnership with StoragePipe, provides automated cloud‑to‑cloud backup, compliance policies, and disaster‑recovery for Microsoft 365 data, ensuring continuous availability and protection.
