The Era of Smarter Networking for Smarter Data Centres

The smarter data centre with improved economics of IT can be achieved by connecting servers and storage with a high-speed and intelligent network fabric that is smarter, faster, greener, open and easy to manage. IBM System Networking solutions:

Flatten and converge your network (US)

IBM takes an open, standards-based approach to implement the latest advances in today’s flat, converged data centre network designs. IBM System Networking solutions



enable clients to deploy a high-speed, low-latency Unified Fabric Architecture.

Optimise and automate virtualisation (US)

Advanced virtualisation awareness reduces the cost and complexity of deploying physical and virtual data centre infrastructure.

Simplify management (US)

IBM data centre networks are easy to deploy, maintain, scale and virtualise, delivering the foundation of consolidated operations for dynamic infrastructure management.

Network Services

New design and implementation services added to an extensive networking services portfolio help optimise networks for IT consolidation and virtualisation initiatives.

Systems

IBM offers a broad systems and storage portfolio combined with decades of experience solving real business problems. With x86, POWER and mainframe systems, disk, tape and network storage systems, IBM can offer the right combination of systems to meet the challenges of your business.

Storage

Storage efficiency is more vital than ever. Your disk utilisation rate may be as low as 20% — while the amount of data you are required to store is exploding. IBM Storage can help.

The smarter data centre with improved economics of IT can be achieved by connecting servers and storage with a high-speed and intelligent network fabric that is smarter, faster, greener, open and easy to manage. IBM takes an open, standards-based approach to implement the latest advances in today’s flat, converged data centre network designs.

Software

IBM's comprehensive Systems Software solutions help to centralise, streamline and automate your physical and virtual infrastructure, allowing you to optimise workloads and increase your ability to deliver IT services that align with business goals. Let us show you how IBM Systems Software helps you realize the value of IBM smarter computing, by allowing a more effective use of the advanced features in IBM hardware and operating systems.

Integrated solutions

The reality is that you need an IT infrastructure designed for data, tuned to the task and managed in the cloud. If your IT staff spends all of their time managing IT, they won’t be working with you to drive innovation. You need your infrastructure to help you in the marketplace, to help you innovate, to help you be more competitive, to help you succeed.

Systems-related services

IBM Systems-related services offers a full range of services to help design, develop, integrate, optimise, validate and deploy comprehensive solutions that support On Demand Business.
