  • Session 17503 - z13 and Brocade Resilient, Intelligent and Synergistic IO Processing (2.3 MB)
  • Technologies are rapidly changing the business environment.  The proliferation of mobile devices, social media access and the massive amounts of data to be processed make it imperative for organizations to adapt to meet these demands.  Having a robust IT infrastructure is absolutely essential in order for organizations to thrive in this new reality.

    IBM’s Institute of Business Value made this observation: “an IT infrastructure must adapt to changing technologies and business requirements, and be prepared to address numerous disruptions that can halt a digital enterprise”.  C-level executives are paying attention to this information and acknowledging that a robust IT infrastructure is essential.  What that means to you professionally is that in order for you to thrive and prosper in this age of technology evolution in the data center you must arm yourself with knowledge about the newest and best tools and capabilities that are at your disposal today.

    This session will focus on how IBM’s z13 distinct advantage over older mainframe processors – coupled with Brocade’s Gen 5, 16 Gbps switching platforms – provides many unique, intelligent, valuable and synergistic capabilities to ensure that your enterprise is as resilient as possible as the tides of technology continue to change the data center landscape.
