1. Introduction
The AB pty Ltd Company is a product deliver company by using tracks delivery system.
This company has three trucks to deliver the products for their customers and third parties. But,
this Company has business problems. So, it requires to resolved by create the new smart
applications by using the IBM blue mix services. These processes are will be analyzed and
discussed in detail.
2. IBM Blue mix
The IBM blue mix services are used to create and develop the smart application for a
company. To create a smart applications by using the below steps,
First, users must be create the IBM account and then login that account by using the below
link. Once users successfully login the IBM account, then launch the IBM cloud to open the IBM
cloud dash board. Here, user needs to create the cloud foundry application for a company by
choose the cloud foundry application from the IBM services list (Breeding, 2012).
3

In cloud foundry application window, users need to choose the SDJ for node to develop
and deploy the server for an application.
After, user requires creating the database by click the data analytics services.
4

Here, click the DB MYSQL to create the data base and then, database must be deployed
and established.
After, edit the configuration file for smart application.
5

The IBM blue mix DevOps service is used to edit the code. It is shown below.
If user needs to edit the deployment code again, click the red button on the centre of the
screen and it shows the pop up window to re-deploy code. It is displayed in below.
6

Then click the OK button and it display the GIT repository window. After, user needs to
click the commit button to commit the process. This is displayed in below.
Here, The IBM blue mix is display the information about the all changed file details.
