IBM Power Systems bring together the traditional IBM System p (RS6000) and System i (AS400) offerings into a new, unified hardware platform supporting three different operating systems - AIX, IBM i, and Linux - helping to maximise the total range of applications and services available from each server.

POWER7 processors provide unprecedented levels processing power per core. When coupled with the virtualisation capabilities of PowerVM, outstanding levels of consolidation and utilisation can be achieved with users being able to significantly reduce the number of servers and/or the size of servers required to run their production systems. This advantage has helped our clients to reduce the total cost of ownership with significant software cost savings being achieved for products licensed by the core, as well as energy costs, floorspace, and other operational costs.

The POWER7 processor technology and advanced system design of the IBM Power servers create a system with leadership-balanced performance. Powerful processors with very fast system busses, I/O bandwidth, and large memory capacity leads to the astounding performance proven by the number of leadership commercial and technical benchmarks. The result is a server which outperforms competitive platforms running twice the number of processor cores.

If you have legacy AS400, iSeries, RS6000 or pSeries and are looking to upgrade – Recarta can help identify the right upgrade path for you taking into account any legacy applications.
