The press release pretty clearly positions Apple devices as front-ends for IBM's big data and cloud offerings.
E.g., compute some "big data analytic" on the IBM server and view it in a dashboard on a mobile Apple device; or interact with client records or job tickets stored in IBM's cloud.

The sort of places that run IBM stuff will run away screaming from running "big data analytics" from, nevermind viewing results on, an iOS device. Trust me I've learned all there is to learn about IBM software - while working there.
