This private cloud platform is part of the broader IBM Cloud portfolio and provides choice with  consistency across IBM public, private, and dedicated cloud models. IBM Cloud Private  delivers a choice of open-source application runtimes, consistent with IBM public cloud  offerings: Kubernetes and containers or Cloud Foundry technology. Your enterprise can choose the prescriptive development approach of Cloud Foundry, or the  more customizable and portable approach of Kubernetes and Docker Containers.  Along with the application runtime frameworks, IBM delivers a core set of management  services for these frameworks and the applications being developed on top. Some examples  of the management services include logging, monitoring, access control, and event  management.  Enterprises can use these management tools integrated with the platform and ready to use.  These are tools frequently used by enterprise clients today and leverage existing skills. If  needed, these tools can be integrated with enterprise instantiations, so that the management  needs are operationalized from one location.  One of the most beneficial aspects of the IBM Cloud Private platform is the application  services that move innovation from idea to reality. As shown in Figure 1-2, IBM Cloud Private  includes services for data, messaging, Java, integration, Blockchain, DevOps, analytics, and  others. These services are crucial for enterprise application creation, and with IBM Cloud  Private they can be deployed rapidly and ready to accelerate new ideas.  Figure 1-2 IBM Cloud Private components IBM Cloud Private supports choice in application development with Kubernetes, Cloud  Foundry, and function-based programming models. It provides these benefits: GLYPH<SM590000> Containers and orchestration that are based on Kubernetes for creating  microservices-based applications. GLYPH<SM590000> A common catalog of enterprise and open services to accelerate developer productivity. GLYPH<SM590000> A choice of compute models for rapid innovation, including Kubernetes and Cloud  Foundry. GLYPH<SM590000> Common base services to support the scalable management of microservices, including  Istio, monitoring with Prometheus, logging with Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana  (ELK). GLYPH<SM590000> Automatic horizontal and non-disruptive vertical scaling of applications. Chapter 1. Introduction to IBM Cloud Private  5
