Most of the time, server utilization is reliable and stable during peak times. Truly amazing, this product offers a lot and gets it done in no time without any confusion.It is reliable, too accurate and the performance is top-notch. It seems to be competitive in all virtual energy systems and its connectivity is also good. It's available at a low cost, but it's enough to have as many low-cost, more efficient systems as possible. It's a minor thing, but very rarely, it can cause work interruptions while it can get stuck due to more frequent use such as restless work. These power servers are very efficient and really help when things go wrong. I am using this product to retrieve data much faster.
SAP Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence as a stand-alone platform seems to be quite powerful with a wide range of capabilities and integration options. The integration itself proved to be challenging which was mentioned before. We also had some issues with delays in data queries which resulted in delays of the visual representation on the SSCE dashboards.Incentivized
Virtualization for Scale-Out and Scale-Up in the same footprintSecurity for different workloads: Large Confidential Computing and lightweight Secure ExecutionPerformance is a true game changer: extreme throughput powered by amazingly huge caches.The one and only FIPS 140-2 Level 4 HSM on this planetQuantum Safe Encryption NOW!AI infusion to every transactionIncentivized
MII is particularly good at providing and customizing dashboards for quick analysis of industrial IoT data.MII also has built-in analysis functionality to make more sense of all the IoT data being streamed.MII (and ME) are particularly effective at identifying outliers and problems with equipment/processes before they cause delays or other cascading issues. This allows for effective preventative maintenance.Incentivized
It would be good if IBM could demonstrate more use cases for Z to potential clientsA migration strategy from Open Systems to Z would be helpfulAny additional marketing to could explain the benefits of Z/Linux, especially now that RedHat is in the mix.Incentivized
Using the plant connector and setting up a proper stable connection proved challenging.Defining the tags and subscription aliases in the workbench took a lot of time.Documentation is somewhat outdated and difficult to come by.Incentivized
The IBM Z mainframe capabilities are unmatched for cloud readiness and optimization the learning capabilities are matched perfectly with Watson and the expandability of the cloud makes it a perfect choice.Incentivized
Once you learn how, it easy. It's different than most other systems Incentivized
The Z in IBM Z is for zero down time. If you configure your system according to IBM's best practices, you can achieve zero downtime Incentivized
Performance is a major part when you configure your system. IBM has many tools to study your system and suggest the appropriate configuration. With the right contract, you can add processing power dynamically and remove it when no longer needed Incentivized
Support is usually superb, only occasionally dropping to very good. We participate in some of the CD (Continuous Delivery) aspects of z/OS, IMS, MQ, and DB2.Incentivized
We required a bit of support setting this product up and as always the representative was both knowledgeable and helpful. The landscape we had (ME, PCo, ERP, MII, SolMan) made it a little more complicated and they were very good at finding the answers we needed. They also replied in a timely fashion. We have not needed any further support.Incentivized
Over my 33 years on this platform, I attended many in person courses, conferences, and other training opportunities.Incentivized
There are many online courses from both IBM and other vendors. Most are great. All of the documentation is available online.Incentivized
I do not personally have any key insights regarding implementation of IBM Z Enterprise Servers as that is what our mainframe architects do.Incentivized
IBM Z is the best storage solution as it provides the best in class data protection with the cryptographic hardware keys, no loss in data while migration, and a user-friendly interface that makes it easy for develops to understand and has less of a learning curve. This makes it well above the competition.Incentivized
SAP MII is a robust platform for data visualization and data integration. It isn't very intuitive and has the shortcomings explained throughout the review. It still uses old Java versions which is incompatible with updated versions. The SAP ME and SAP CP provide cloud-based solutions that seem to provide a more innovative approach.Incentivized
If you need more processing power, just add more CPU's or memory. The largest system can have close to 200 CPU's and 40 TB of memory. If that is not enough, you can add more physical computers, and connect them using a sysplex Incentivized
With IBM Z we really feel a different positive impact on our company. A trustworthy and the most powerful place we have ever.A unique computing platform that helps a lot for the progress of our company.It keeps our data save, encrypted.Incentivized
SAP MII is a more robust, feature-rich solution than any in-house application would be.Our experiments have granted us the skills necessary to help our clients with their own industrial IoT journey.Incentivized
