IBM today introduced a model for the new enterprise data center -- an evolutionary, highly efficient, dynamic infrastructure that addresses the business challenges our clients face today. The IBM vision is backed by deep technical capabilities, unmatched skills and a clear roadmap with assessments and solutions client can act on today. Using an open approach, with support from more than a dozen ecosystem partners, this new framework allows clients to leverage emerging technologies that address growing business challenges and position their companies to be more competitive.
The cornerstone of this launch is the next- generation IBM System z10 mainframe. The new System z10 represents decades of IBM innovation and collaboration with our most advanced clients. It delivers up to 100 percent more performance, up to 100 percent utilization, and potential costs savings of 80 percent or more versus competitive IT environments. The IBM System z10 is the most powerful tool available to our clients to reduce cost and complexity in their data centers.

A single z10 offers the computing power of 1,500 PC-style servers, uses 85 percent less electricity, and occupies 85% less floor space. The all-new z10 is IBM's first mainframe purposely built to handle the exploding demand for digital transactions enabled by the Internet, a trend that is creating crowded, over-burdened corporate data centers -- computer rooms that process everything from consumer banking transactions to drivers' license forms.
