Realize innovation
At IBM, our ultimate goal is to help you realize innovation in your day-to-day business. Not just in using technology to make things "run faster" but in truly changing how your business is run.
You've told us you're running multiple business-critical applications — all on x86 servers. You need a provider you can count on. IBM is the right choice. Combining open, industry standards with deep business experience and renowned research, the IBM X-Architecture® blueprint equips System x™ and BladeCenter® servers with innovative technology that makes IT easier and more reliable. Proactive tools that help you manage complexity and support the growth of your business and data center. Capabilities that help you become more efficient so you can go green and start saving. Imagine enterprise servers, blade servers, modular servers and solutions that are open, easy and green with innovation that can help set you apart from the competition.
- IBM System x enterprise servers
IBM System x enterprise servers are the ideal platform for today's business-critical applications — like database processing, customer relationship management and enterprise resource planning — and highly consolidated, virtual server environments. With multiple workloads running on the same server, performance remains important but reliability and availability become more critical than ever. IBM System x enterprise servers are built with X3 and eX4 technologies, which include a unique chipset and other advanced capabilities that give you higher throughput, exceptional reliability and the ideal platform for virtualization.

- IBM BladeCenter blade servers
By integrating servers, storage and networking, IBM BladeCenter is helping companies in every industry sweep complexity aside. The blades contain all the necessities to run an application — processors, memory, I/O and storage. The chassis contains shared redundant power, shared hot-swap cooling, DVD, integrated Ethernet, storage, switching and consolidated powerful management. Its innovative, open design offers a true alternative to today's sprawling racks and overheated server rooms. So toss your cables. You have nothing to lose but complexity. Learn more
- IBM System x modular servers
The philosophy regarding IBM System x rack-based servers is "innovation comes standard". IBM delivers next-generation technology today that the competition can't match. Some server vendors view uni- and two-socket servers as commodities, using off-the-shelf components to produce cookie-cutter servers with no added value. Instead, IBM X-Architecture system design begins with standard parts and adds innovation to create something more practical: outstanding dual- and quad-core performance, high availability, scalability, power efficiency and proactive manageability.

Manage growth and complexity
The proliferation of servers, along with their management and asset control can make it difficult to manage your data center. Proactive, integrated tools — for tracking and deploying assets, optimizing performance and enabling remote maintenance — provide a single, consistent interface so you can better manage your IT. An intelligent system design that includes multiple layers of redundancy and memory protection combined with advanced availability tools help keep your systems up and running. And with the ability to scale up to 32 processors on rack servers or add blades on demand, you can grow as needed to create a dynamic and scalable infrastructure.
With a data center that's easier to manage, you can focus on growing your business. Learn more
Go green and save
You've told us that managing energy in your data center is a growing concern — because of the increasing numbers of servers, the incremental heat they generate and ultimately, the rising cost of energy. With System x and BladeCenter servers, IBM can help you cut costs with technologies that not only increase performance per watt, but also help you budget, plan and control your power usage. And, by consolidating and virtualizing on IBM System x and BladeCenter servers, you can increase the utilization of your hardware and decrease the number of physical assets you need to watch over. This translates into real dollar savings through better energy conservation and IT resource usage across the data center. Learn more
