 IBM Autonomic Computing
for IBM
iSeries
| | |
| Many of the foundation technologies encompassed by autonomic computing manifest themselves in IBM
eServer™® iSeries™. From the day this advanced architecture was introduced to the marketplace it has contained many forward-looking autonomic technologies, such as the ability to automatically phone for service in anticipation of a failure, and the ability to automatically allocate data to all available disk drives while self-optimizing disk drive utilization. iSeries remains a leader by yielding a low overall total cost of ownership among platform choices. As iSeries has grown in performance and versatility, the autonomic advances have kept coming, including dynamic LPAR (Logical Partitioning) for efficient resource allocation, dynamic optimization of workloads and DB2, graphical tools for wizard-assisted setup and systems management, and Enterprise Identity Mapping for improved enterprise-wide security. iSeries -- it’s “enterprise computing made simple.”
