Companies rely on an efficient IT infrastructure to support business-critical applications. They need to know that their systems and business processes are deployed to meet the highest service levels defined by their business units plus can be adapted to handle every new business opportunity. The IBM® i operating system® running on an IBM Power™ Systems server offers a highly scalable and virus resistant architecture with a proven reputation for exceptional business resiliency. Running applications based on the IBM i operating system has helped companies over many years to focus on innovation and delivering new value to their business, not just on managing their data center operations
The IBM i operating system integrates a trusted combination of relational database, security, Web services, networking and storage management capabilities. It provides a broad and highly stable database and middleware foundation for efficiently deploying business processing applications, with support for over 5,000 solutions from over 2,500 ISVs. IBM i solutions are offered through an extensive, highly skilled worldwide network of IBM Business Partners that is backed by IBM's trusted services and support infrastructure.
IBM develops, fully tests and pre-loads the core middleware components of the IBM i operating system together up front, whereas on other platforms, operating system, database and middleware integration is done in the data center. The pre-integration and testing of the IBM i operating system is a key factor in enabling companies to deploy applications faster and maintain them with fewer staff. Virtualization and workload management are also built into the IBM i operating system to enable you to run multiple applications and components together on the same system, driving up system utilization and delivering a better return on IT investments.
