IBM Power Systems - Accelerating the Path to Optimized Systems

The explosive growth businesses are seeing today places new demands on Information Technology (IT). Some challenges include a noticeable growth in information sources, exponentially increasing data, level of complexity of business applications and an alarming rate at which hardware is proliferating in data centers. Managing and maintaining storage and servers is a huge challenge and adds to the existing hardware infrastructure, thus increasing an organization IT costs.

In this white paper, we discuss how IBM’s Smarter Computing, in particular IBM software that includes WebSphere Application Server, DB2 and AIX, has been optimized to leverage the massive parallel architecture and virtualization capabilities of Power Systems to help alleviate many of the challenges IT organizations face today.
