Computer Guidance Corporation Announces Migration of Hosted Clients to IBM Cloud in Partnership with GlassHouse Systems

by

Scottsdale, Arizona — April 28, 2026 – Computer Guidance Corporation, a provider of cloud-based ERP solutions for the construction industry, today announced the migration of all hosted clients to IBM Cloud, in collaboration with GlassHouse Systems.

The migration represents a consolidation of hosting services offerings onto IBM Cloud, an enterprise hybrid cloud platform designed to support secure, scalable, and distributed workloads across IBM Power and x86 environments. IBM Cloud provides robust infrastructure and platform services that enable organizations to manage mission critical applications across hybrid environments.

As part of IBM’s broader hybrid cloud ecosystem, IBM Cloud is used across regulated industries and supports workloads requiring high availability, security controls, and operational resiliency. The IBM Cloud environment also enables integration with hundreds of cloud services including artificial intelligence (AI), analytics, and automation capabilities used in modern enterprise application deployments.

The central part of the infrastructure supporting Computer Guidance Corporation’s hosted environment is based upon IBM Power Virtual Server built on IBM Power systems technology, which is designed for enterprise workloads requiring high performance and reliability. IBM’s Power platform supports hybrid cloud deployment models and is used in environments where continuous availability and workload optimization are required.

“This migration reflects our continued focus on providing a stable and supported hosting environment for our customers,” said Akshay Choudhary, Director of Information Technology, Computer Guidance Corporation. “Working with IBM and GlassHouse Systems allows us to align our infrastructure strategy with enterprise-grade cloud capabilities.”

“IBM Cloud and the IBM Power Virtual Server service is designed to support a broad range of mission-critical workloads, including IBM i based applications provided by ISVs. With its strong focus on security, resiliency, and hybrid flexibility, IBM Power Virtual Server is the ideal place for ISVs to run their as-a-service offerings” said Anthony Ciccone, Director Product Manager, IBM. “We are pleased to support Computer Guidance Corporation in their transformation and to host their clients as part of this environment.”

“For IBM i-based software construction companies, the next phase of growth starts with a stronger foundation. GlassHouse Systems is proud to partner with Computer Guidance to extend their trusted IBM i environments to IBM Power Virtual Server, giving them the agility of cloud while preserving the reliability their customers count on. That means less time managing infrastructure and more time building the software and services that keep construction businesses moving.” Said Alex Talmor, President, GlassHouse Systems

The migration is intended to provide a standardized hosting environment for all Computer Guidance Corporation hosted clients and to support long-term infrastructure consistency and operational efficiency.

Computer Guidance Corporation will be discussing IBM Cloud, the migration and hosting strategy in more detail at its upcoming Customer Focus 2026 event, where IBM and GlassHouse Systems executives will also participate.
