Unprecedented capacity and virtualization to meet consolidation needs
Just-In-Time deployment of resources
Specialty engines offer an attractive alternative when running new workloads.
The future runs on System z
In today’s world, IT is woven in to almost everything that a business does and consequently is pivotal to a business. Some of the key requirements today are the need to maximise return on investments (ROIs) by deploying resources designed to drive efficiencies and economies of scale, managing growth through resources that can scale to meet changing business demands, reducing risk by reducing the threat of lost productivity through downtime or security breaches, reducing complexity by reversing the trend of server proliferation and enabling business innovation by deploying resources that can help protect existing investments while also enabling those new technologies that can aid in business transformation.
The IBM System z10 Enterprise Class (z10 EC) delivers a world class enterprise server designed to meet these business needs. The z10 EC provides new levels of performance and capacity for growth and large scale consolidation, improved security, resiliency and availability to reduce risk, and introduces just in time resource deployment to help respond to changing business requirements. As environmental concerns raise the focus on energy consumption, the z10 EC is designed to reduce energy usage by greater than 80 percent and save floor space by greater than 90 percent when used to consolidate x86 servers. Specialty engines continue to help users expand the use of the mainframe for a broad set of applications, while helping to lower the cost of ownership. The z10 EC is at the core of the enhanced System z platform that delivers technologies that businesses need today along with a foundation to drive future business growth.
