Wix Uses IBM Cloud for Resilience
Wix, an information technology organization in Israel, uses IBM Cloud from IBM to support reliability engineering for SRE and operations.
IBM Cloud became the place Wix uses to keep critical services recoverable across regions instead of a single room of servers.
“Information Technology work at Wix spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in Israel.”
“SRE and operations asked for a shared way to run reliability engineering without freezing local judgment.”

Story
Information Technology work at Wix spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in Israel. Backup and failover was splitting across regional habits. SRE and operations asked for a shared way to run reliability engineering without freezing local judgment.
IBM (IBM Cloud) is what they standardized on. IBM offers hybrid cloud, AI, and automation software, including watsonx, Red Hat OpenShift, and observability products for large enterprises. Wix uses it as the system of record for backup and failover, with SRE and operations as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
