IBM Power 770

Everyone knows what “performance” meant for IT in the past. But the IT landscape is evolving rapidly. And, as processes become more interrelated and complex, IT is being called upon to solve challenging new problems—and implement new projects, both with higher service levels and in a more cost effective manner. IBM has the systems, software and expertise to help clients implement projects that make their IT an enabler of innovation and a catalyst for business change in this new world of critical information. Today’s IT performance means delivering services faster, with higher quality and with superior economics. The emerging measures of IT performance are around agility and the ability to help the business capitalize on new opportunities. IT is measured on providing an infrastructure that can handle rapid growth and manage business risk while meeting higher required service levels. And of course it is expected that new services will be delivered within tighter budget constraints—with IT expected to do more with less and find the most efficient solutions possible.
Designed for virtualized consolidation of business-critical workloads, the IBM® Power® 770 delivers on performance, availability, efficiency and virtualization in a way that is unique in the industry. PowerVM® virtualization enables continuous, dynamic resource adjustments across all partitions and operating environments to optimize performance and enable higher utilization levels while optimizing energy usage. Supported environments include AIX®, IBM i, Linux for Power applications, all on the same system.
Ever increasing numbers of IBM Power clients are reporting enormous savings from faster provisioning using cloud enabled technologies. Of course this comes in addition to the more traditional savings of reduced software costs, energy, floor space and administrative overhead. Additional benefits include increased application performance, operational availability and security that can only come from IBM. All of this is delivered on the latest technology from a vendor you can trust. No wonder more and more companies are switching to IBM Power Systems™.
