Highly efficient partitioning guarantees service delivery for all priority workloads

High priority workloads can run at very high utilization and drive high throughput (2.5k tps)

No degradation in throughput when low priority workloads are added

High priority workloads run at lower utilization and drive less throughput (1.8k tps)

Significant degradation when low priority workloads added (1.2k tps)

On virtualized x86 servers, ‘noisy neighbors’ (low priority

workloads) steal valuable resources from high priority workloads

50+ years of Mainframe

16+ years of Linux development for IBM z System

34

z Systems and LinuxONE Virtualization Options

IBM z Systems and

LinuxONE now

has three strategic

virtualization platforms

Divide one physical server into up to 85 logical partitions (LPAR) running a mix of multiple z/OS, z/VM,

Linux, KVM for IBM z, Transaction Processing Facility (TPF) and z/VSE instances isolated and secured in

parallel. Share resources across LPARs or dedicated to a particular LPAR. Running a mix of multiple z/OS,

z/VM, Linux, TPF, KVM for IBM z and z/VSE instances isolated and secured in parallel.

PR/SM& DPM

KVM for IBM z provides an open source choice for IBM z Systems and LinuxONE virtualization for Linux workloads. Best for clients that are notfamiliar with z/VM and are Linux centric admins.

Proprietary Server Virtualization that is completely integrated into the full stack. Complete hardware

awareness. Supported on all IBM z Systems and LinuxONE servers. z/VM will continue to be enhanced to

support Linux workloads.

A Customer Example

43

Flexible infrastructure lowers cost and delivers platform for innovation

Challenge

Over 25 years, SNS Bank has relied on its core

banking application, running on a Unisys

mainframe and in daily use by 5,000 employees.

Business continuity is of paramount importance

and it was felt it was time for SNS Bank to rethink

its whole IT infrastructure and adapt to a more

modern and dynamic world where collaboration

between development teams could be fostered

while retaining a high-performance core banking

system. .

Solution

In partnership with IBM, moving the application to

an open environment, using:

• Micro Focus Visual COBOL

• IBM Power

Results

• Significantly reduced business risk

• Improved developer productivity

• Future-proof IT infrastructure

• Single, consolidated development

environment

Country – Netherlands

“Moving our core banking system to a

distributed environment has drastically

reduced our business risk and has given

us a path to the future.” — Ramakant Patki,

Head of IT Infrastructure and Operations
