October 7, 2025 — Leads & Copy — IBM unveiled new product capabilities at TechXchange 2025, aimed at helping enterprises move beyond AI experimentation and unlock productivity gains across development, operations, and business workflows.
The advancements address challenges such as fragmented hybrid environments and gaps in data quality and AI readiness, with products built for production readiness, real-time governance, and integration across hybrid cloud ecosystems.
Key announcements include enhancements to watsonx Orchestrate with AgentOps for agentic observability and governance, Agentic workflows, and Langflow integration. IBM also plans to extend these capabilities to the mainframe with watsonx Assistant for Z.
Following its acquisition of HashiCorp, IBM announced Project infragraph, which replaces fragmented tools with a unified control plane for observability. Project Bob, a new AI-first integrated development environment (IDE), is also in private tech preview.
IBM is also partnering with Anthropic to integrate their large language models (LLMs) into IBM software products, starting with Project Bob. A new guide, Architecting Secure Enterprise AI Agents with MCP, focuses on the Agent Development Lifecycle (ADLC).
Dinesh Nirmal, Senior Vice President of Products, IBM Software, highlighted that these features will help clients remove bottlenecks across their entire technology lifecycle, taking developer productivity, agentic orchestration, and infrastructure intelligence to the next level.
