IBM PureSystems

Unimaginable complexity, combined with a lack of resources has created a situation in corporate IT globally where $2.5 Trillion – 70% of the global IT budget – is spent just making sure the status quo works. As a result, 1 in 5 projects never see the light of day and there is a backlog in IT of more than 18 months.

For more than 100 years IBM has provided organizations with the advances in technology to help transform their work and meet the needs of clients. That tradition of enterprise IT innovation continues as IBM unveils a new class of expert integrated systems designed to help businesses address the complexity of enterprise IT. These first of their kind systems are the result of $2 billion in R&D and acquisitions over four years, an unprecedented move by IBM to integrate all IT elements, both physical and virtual.
