The increasing demand for cloud computing and business analytical
workloads by enterprises to meet business needs drives innovation to
find new ways to build informational systems. Clients are looking for IT
solutions that manage large amounts of data, easily scale
performance, and provide reliable real-time access to actionable
information.
Built on decades of innovation, IBM introduces its sixth generation of
IBM Enterprise X-Architecture technology, IBM X6 servers. IBM X6
servers are designed to be fast, agile, and resilient:
Fast application performance means immediate access to
actionable information.
Agile system design helps to reduce acquisition costs and provide
the ability to host multiple generations of technology in a single
server.
Resilient platforms maximize application uptime and promote easy
integration in virtual environments.
This IBM Redbooks publication covers product information as well as
planning and implementation information. In the first few chapters, we
provide detailed technical information about the four-socket x3850 X6
and eight-socket x3950 X6. This information is most useful in
designing, configuring, and planning to order a server solution. In the
later chapters of the book, we provide detailed configuration and setup
information to get your server operational.
This book is aimed at clients, IBM Business Partners, and IBM
employees that want to understand the features and capabilities of the
IBM X6 portfolio of servers and want to learn how to install and
configure the servers for use in production.
