The Data Center is evolving

Today’s organizations are challenged to meet increasing business demands, gain competitive advantage, and keep budgets flat, while IT departments must deliver more reliability, availability, and scalability from mission-critical database infrastructure than ever before. But managing and securing growing volumes of data on aging and expensive infrastructures has become a major obstacle to business growth. Not only is there an explosion in the sheer amount of data produced, but users access that data more often and through diverse devices that are more difficult to manage and secure. Furthermore, to reduce costs and simplify IT management, more and more organizations are considering server virtualization and extending mission-critical workloads to the cloud.

Modernize your mission-critical infrastructure
Aging IT infrastructure can limit an organization’s ability to grow and meet increasing business demands. To combat spiraling costs and inefficiency—and to scale flexibly to meet the demands of new applications and services—organizations seek new opportunities to transform IT. Intel and IBM offer an optimized solution: IBM System x* servers powered by Intel® Xeon® processor E7 family. The leading scalability and reliability of IBM System x servers, combined with the scalable performance and advanced reliability features of the Intel Xeon processor E7 family help companies solve today’s IT challenges and gain flexibility for the future. Because the migration of core applications and databases from older infrastructure to new environments can be risky and complex, IBM Migration Factory* offers proven services to help organizations install optimal solutions for their unique requirements.
