zSeries
 | | |
| Today's IBM
eServer™® zSeries® offers some of the most advanced autonomic computing features available on the market. This includes features like CPU Sparing, dynamic LPAR as well as Intelligent Resource Director for dynamic workload and resource management facilities for the most demanding e-business environments. Some of the recent improvements include: setup wizards for VPN, IRD and security planner, security and clustering for improved "self configuration capabilities", Enterprise Identity mapping for improved enterprise-wide security and, intelligent resource director for improved resource utilization and management across a range of e-business workloads.
