Recent Success

Platform Computing

For 17 years, Platform was the leader in the niche field of high-performance computing. In 2009, Platform made the bold decision to move into the much larger and faster growing enterprise-computing markets of cloud and big data. Platform’s experience and expertise was a good fit, but the competitors were iconic companies. How did Platform transform from a relatively unknown company to become a credible player in cloud and big data? It did so in two ways. It focused not on the broad-based cloud market, but rather on the emerging space of private cloud and big data favored by large enterprises. It embraced a challenger brand stance by establishing a compelling positioning platform and rallying cry around a provocative point-of-view: Clusters, Grids, Clouds, Whatever. Everything flowed from that – product decisions, sales training, messaging, analyst relations, biz dev, go-to-market efforts. In two years, Platform achieved what it set out to do. It grew at double-digit rates, attracted new talent, won new important enterprise relationships, generated credibility with customers, analysts and the media for its newest products, and it got noticed. And, in so doing it attracted the interest of IBM which acquired Platform in November 2011.
