High End Servers
Announcing the new Power™ 595, reaching the 5 GHz barrier, and again securing leadership benchmark status that simply cannot be paralleled. It is the ultimate platform for consolidation of UNIX, Linux and i applications with IBM's unique virtualization technologies that make it perfect for the New Enterprise Data Center since you can run separate, secure PowerVM partitions on a single server. It also includes the most memory and largest capacity ever built for a commercial SMP system running the UNIX operating environment
The new Power 575 puts an entirely different perspective on high performance computing – with its unique water-cooled design. Delivering up to 5X the performance and nearly three times more energy efficiency than its predecessor, the Power 575 is designed to help you solve the world's most complex computing challenges.
Mid-range and Entry servers
The modular design of the System p 570 and System i 570 combined with the performance of POWER6 processors has made the 570 the most popular mid-range server running UNIX® and Linux™ operating environments - with clients buying more units than any competitive option1. Now, the new Power 570 continues that tradition of modular growth by adding the flexibility of complete freedom of choice in running UNIX, Linux or IBM i applications on a single system that is the leading transaction processing system in it's class, delivering over 100,000 transactions per minute per core 2 – something no other mid-range server can deliver.
Choose the AIX, i, or Linux Edition that best suits your application and business requirements. Whether you need a high performing system for database serving, a distributed application server, an integrated business solution, or a reliable and efficient server consolidation platform, the Power 520 and Power 550 Express servers can fulfill your requirements in a small rack or tower form factor.
IBM Power Blade Express servers
Built on the promise of the IBM BladeCenter® family of products – easy-to-use, integrated platforms with a high degree of deployment flexibility, scalability and manageability – the BladeCenter JS12 Express is an extremely affordable 2-core POWER6 processor-based blade server with large memory and disk capacity and the capability to run AIX, IBM i or Linux applications – concurrently if desired. The JS12 Express is the perfect complement to the 4-core BladeCenter JS22 Express blade server and increases the ways clients can put this power to work with support for the latest BladeCenter chassis and a broad range of operating systems and applications.
IBM BladeCenter® delivers an innovative, open design and offers a true alternative to today's sprawling racks and overheated server rooms. So toss your cables and take the leap. Migrate to the blade solution that uses less energy and gives more choices and control.
IBM Power Systems Software:
IBM Power Systems unifies IBM's highly successful integrated platform, IBM System i™, with its fast growing UNIX® operating system platform, IBM System p™. Now you can take advantage of this single platform for all of your UNIX, Linux and IBM i applications, with mission-critical virtualization provided by PowerVM™.
