IBM has taken the IBM eServer ™ Integrated Platform for e-business to the next level and has created the Integrated Platform Express to assist both small and medium sized businesses, where there is growing need for Linux-based business applications.
The IBM Integrated Platform Express offering includes WebSphere Application Server - Express, DB2 - Express and the IBM eServer xSeries™ systems, along with disk storage and is well suited for businesses in a wide range of industries, including retail, finance, manufacturing, and government.
The hardware and software in this offering are specifically designed and priced to meet the needs of smaller businesses. WebSphere - Express is well-suited for building, deploying and managing Web sites, giving SMBs a reliable, easy-to-deploy foundation that’s based on open industry standards, like Linux, Java and XML.
DB2 - Express is a new, full function database with aggressively low per user pricing for the mid-market that can be pre-packaged with Partner applications, and features a convenient one or no-click "silent" database installation.
The IBM eServer systems and related storage can meet the needs of price-conscious small and mid-size businesses and are ideally suited for e-business solutions.
On October 28 2003, IBM Integrated Platform Express was honored by VARBusiness with a Tech Innovator Award in the Linux category.
