VP & Principal Analyst, Datacenter Compute, Matt Kimball, dives in as the latest release of LinuxONE—IBM LinuxONE Rockhopper 4—the company seems to be setting its sights on enabling smaller organizations to afford the benefits of IBM technology.
Today, IBM’s ability to deliver a platform that can cohabitate in the same racks as x86 servers is a smart move. The company understands its customers' environments and is making its technology more easily consumed. Further, there's something symbolic about this deployment model—namely that the barriers between x86 and non-x86 technologies are falling in this cloud-native world.
In practical terms, that means fewer servers that IT has to manage and lower software licensing costs mission-critical workloads require fewer cores . When considering the “per core” licensing of many commercial database systems, and the ability for a LinuxONE core to perform so much better than an x86 core – the economics becomes very compelling.
If I were an IT executive in today's digitally transformed world, I would initially look at LinuxONE as a deployment target for the business-critical workloads powering my organization. Those applications require high performance and “seven nines” availability. Once I started to realize the benefits of using this platform, I would be expanding its footprint in my datacenter.IBM has a winner with LinuxONE.
With LinuxONE, IBM doubled down on this strategy by delivering the platform first to existing customers. So when its existing customers who wanted zSystems levels of reliability and performance on an x86 architecture, IBM had an answer ready.
