IBM System z: helping you take back control

JD Williams

Being the first company to put it into production, JD William demonstrates how the z196 performs tasks traditionally run on many x86 servers at an enterprise scale. Not only does the z196 simplify and streamline workloads, but it also ensures the quality and manageability that JD Williams need.

Dundee City Council

Dundee worked with IBM to upgrade its z9 mainframe environment with two powerful IBM System z10 servers, and introduced the IBM XIV Storage System to replace a mixed storage environment. The new infrastructure runs a range of Linux applications and Oracle databases – supporting key systems such as social services 24x7.

Atos Origin

Atos Origin decided to implement the new applications in Linux environments running under z/VM on an IBM Enterprise Linux Server (ELS). The ELS is an IBM System z10 Business Class server which uses Integrated Facility for Linux (IFL) engines to deliver excellent price-performance.
