IBM P, I, X series servers & hardware sales by Abtech Systems


IBM Series Include:
Abtech provides world-class UNIX and Linux implementations from IBM pSeries are the result of leading-edge IBM technologies including POWER4 processors and autonomic computing features. Through high-performance and flexibility between AIX and Linux operating environments, IBM pSeries delivers reliable, cost-effective solutions for commercial and technical computing applications in the entry, mid-range and high-end UNIX segments. The IBM System p™ technology provides systems that can help you to maximize your returns on your IT investments, improve responsiveness of systems and people.

IBM has become the industry's number one UNIX® systems provider by delivering more performance and reliability for clients' IT investments than any other UNIX or Linux® system provider. When you need to control costs, while improving overall performance, availability and energy efficiency, consider the IBM System p™ family of servers both AIX® [UNIX®] and Linux® [Linux on POWER™ applications] operating system environments. Here's why System p is perfect platform for your mission- and business-critical applications and a unique server consolidation platform for your datacenter:

1. IBM System p Virtualization enables you to do more with a single system than ever before
Achieve lower TCO with the combination of unique advanced virtualization technologies:
  • Dynamic logical partitioning increases the flexibility of partitioned systems by enabling administrators to add, remove or move system resources (such as memory, PCI adapters and processors) between partitions without the need to reboot each partition.
  • Micro-Partitioning™ technology supports both server consolidation and mixed workloads by allowing system resource allocation to be fine-tuned to changing business requirements through the activation of multiple partitions in each CPU in units as small as 1/10th of a processor.
  • Virtual I/O enables the sharing of physical LAN adapters and disk storage devices on a system, which can reduce the number of physical devices needed and help achieve greater utilization of those already installed.
  • Virtual LAN provides high-speed secure partition-to-partition communications—simplifying system configurations helping to reduce costs.
  • Cross-partition workload management allows dynamic workload adjustments to optimize throughput by continuously monitoring application workloads.
2. System p servers set dramatic new industry performance records
System p servers have achieved leadership rankings in a wide range of application and industry standard benchmarks—through the unique, integrated design of the AIX and Linux operating systems (OS) and the IBM POWER6™, POWER5™ and POWER5+™ technologies with simultaneous multithreading.

3. Sleep at night with proven IBM mainframe-inspired reliability features
IBM mainframes are the gold standard for reliability and availability. Many of these unique characteristics have been adapted for the System p family. Isolated logical partitions are designed to shield each application and advanced autonomic self-healing and self-configuring security features are embedded in the OS.

4. Get broad systems and workload management capabilities and unique accounting features
Use IBM Systems Director to manage heterogeneous infrastructures. Take advantage of workload management features in AIX and free staff from repetitive activities. And, advanced accounting features unique to AIX are designed to give you detailed data necessary for improved resource utilization and planning.

5. Use the right OS for your business, on the same system, on the same processor, at the same time
Simultaneously run AIX V6.1 and AIX V5.3 as well as multiple versions of Linux via logical partitioning on System p servers.
