Ukuqala inkampani ukusuka ekuqaleni akuzange kube lula. Ekuqaleni kwayo, i-Apple yayinempikiswano engaphezulu kwesinye noMicrosoft malunga nokusetyenziswa kojongano lwegraphical ekucingelwa ukuba bayile. Kwiminyaka kamva, iMisebenzi yacela uncedo oluvela kuMicrosoft ukuba azame ukuvuselela i-Apple emva kokubuyela kwakhe kwiphulo, uncedo lwezemali uBill Gates anelisekile ngaphandle kweengxaki. I-Samsung yenye inkampani yomzekelo imbangi ahlala esebenza nayo ekugqibeleni ukwenza izinto ezahlukeneyo ezenza i-iPhone, i-iPad kunye ne-iPod Touch.
I-IBM yayiyenye yeentshaba zika-Apple kwixesha elidlulileyo. Kwiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo batyikitye umanyano ukuze basebenzisane kwiiprojekthi ezahlukeneyo ezivelise izicelo ezithile zecandelo lobuchwephesha kwaye ezingajoliswanga kuluntu ngokubanzi. Iindaba zamva nje ezinxulumene nale ntsebenziswano kukuba i-IBM eqinile iya kusebenzisa ulwimi lwenkqubo yenkampani yaseCupertino, ekuvumela ukuba usebenze ngokuthe ngqo kwilifu. Ngaloo ndlela I-Apple ifuna ukwenza lula inkqubo yophuhliso lwesicelo ukuya ekupheleni kwaye oko kuya kukuvumela ukuba uphuhlise usetyenziso lwendalo kwi-Swift. Ngokutsho kwe-IBM, ukusebenzisa iiseva zayo kuya kuphelisa imiqobo yophuhliso lwangaphambili kunye nomva.
I-IBM iya kunika iindlela ezintathu kubaphuhlisi ukusebenzisa i-Swift efini: Amalingo kwi-Swift sandbox, Phuhlisa kwaye usebenzise, kwaye Yabelana ngezixhobo ze-Swift. Ukongezelela, ngenxa ye-Swift Server, i-IBM iya kuvumela abaphuhlisi ukuba babe nesixhobo somsebenzi esilula kunye nesiguquguqukayo sokwenza izicelo zokuphela. Okwangoku intsebenziswano phakathi kweenkampani zombini inika iziphumo ezilungileyo kakhulu kumaqela omabini, kwaye kucingelwa ukuba le ntsebenziswano iya kuqhubeka isebenza ukuba zombini iifemu zifumana inzuzo kubudlelwane.
