  • The server is expensive, so hardware upgrades aren't taken lightly.
  • Because of the requirements for our ERP system, the software cannot be virtualized. This is not the AIX's fault, however, we are forced to purchase what feels like an expensive dinosaur.

  • IBM AIX on Power hardware has been the backbone of our most critical applications.
  • The versatility of IBM AIX virtualization has been extremely useful, scalable, and provided configuration with redundant dual VIO servers.
  • IBM AIX is not Linux so special skill sets are needed to actually manage the systems. Finding qualified engineers can often be a challenge
