These are just brandnames. WebSphere generally for the app server parts of Information Server (WAS websphere application server) and infosphere for everything related to information server and its related offerings.

WebSphere was the (internal IBM) brand name chosen when IBM first acquired DataStage, and they kept it for their first release (version 8.0).

From version 8.1 onwards, DataStage has been part of the InfoSphere brand.
