If you …… want a hybrid computing environment

managed as a single system – including z/OS, AIX®, Linux on IBM System x®, Microsoft Windows on System x

… are looking for an entry level mainframe with almost 100X growth options in same footprint for traditional capacity settings

… need a smaller mix of special engines (*zAAP on zIIP great option here!)

… have smaller Coupling and/or I/O attachment requirements

… need the lowest cost application development environment

… want the flexibility to manage across a hybrid platform

… want to replace your z10 BC or z114 server with one that has more capacity settings and more engines for IFLs, zAAPs or zIIPs

… want to replace your standalone coupling facility or Linux only server with a machine that provides more engine, memory and I/O scale out capabilities

… have future growth needs, but prefer growth in smaller increments and want to avoid disruptive outage during upgrade

… want the flexibility to manage across a hybrid platform

… have a large mainframe capacity requirement or desire for massive consolidation – scale to over 78,000 MIPS in one footprint

… have a large disk installment so in turn have large I/O requirements

… need new ways to address your ‘green’ requirements – like water cooling – or need a non-raised floor environment

… have a large CBU requirement – and like the control of having your disaster recovery site right in your own shop

The zBC12 H06 may be the perfect option.

The zBC12 H13 is just what you need.

Low latency, CPU Efficient Data Compression






Network Performance IssuesUse of traditional TCP/IP technology is not optimal for some environments

Many applications today use TCP/IP to communicate server to server Using traditional Ethernet technology, network latency and processor resource

consumption can be high. – Network latency can be seen when sensitive transactional workloads such as

WebSphere are accessing a database using TCP/IP.

– The amount of CPU resource consumed for applications moving big data such as file transfer programs, streaming workloads or some web based protocols can drive up total cost of operations.

These performance issues can be due TCP/IP communications being executed in software.– The amount of time needed for handshaking can propagate across the link and add to

latency in the transmission of information


Reduced latency,CPU consumption and improved wall clock time

How is it different Industry Standard: Exploits standard 10 Gb

Use cases for SMC-R and 10GbE RoCE Express for z/OS to z/OS communications

Use Cases

Application server such as CICS communicating (via TCP based communications) with a database server such as DB2 – particularly when the application is network intensive and transaction oriented

Transactional workloads that exchange larger messages (e.g. web services such as WAS to DB2 or CICS) will see benefit.

Streaming (or bulk) application workloads (e.g. FTP) communicating z/OS to z/OS TCP will see improvements in both CPU and throughput

Problem The complexity of today’s IT infrastructures stress

operation’s ability to resolve problems quickly and accurately.

Today The volume of messages is outpacing operation’s ability

to respond– Staff cannot digest message rate of 200-300 per second

– Multiple systems concurrently issue messages which must be interpreted together

Today’s tools cannot effectively identify complex problems– Tools cannot identify messages preceding a problem

– Many symptoms remain undetected for a long period of time

Current problem solving techniques are inadequate– Manual analysis of messages often requires collaboration

between multiple experts

– Brute force process of elimination method causes unnecessary disruptions

Goal: Improve the quality and speed of problem determination

to reduce IT operations cost and improve availability

Virtualized and Optimized: Virtualization means fewer resources are required to meet peak demands with optimized interconnection. Multiple resources (both blade types and optimizers) can reside in a single zBX.

Integrated: Integration with System z brings heterogeneous resources together that can be managed as one.

Transparency: Applications certified to run on AIX 5.3, 6.1 or 7.1 on POWER7 blades and those certified to run on supported releases of Linux on System x or Windows on the System x blades will run on those blades in a zBX. No changes to deployed guest images.

More applications: Brings larger application portfolio to System z.

What is it?

The zBX infrastructure can host select IBM POWER7 and IBM System x blades. Each blade comes with an installed hypervisor that offers the possibility of running an application that spans z/OS, Linux on System z, AIX on POWER®, Linux or Microsoft Windows on System x but have it under a single management umbrella.
