As I am using IBM Servers for a long time so I am having good experience with it along there is multiple parameters where we have found IBM servers are the better one to run your application with minimal downtime. At the same time it is also an important kind of support you get from OEM in most cases IBM has delivered valuable support in case of need.
For me, I would suggest wherever you feel like you are heavy critical applications or databases with huge size where it can be a high-rated transaction on each second always go with IBM servers where you can get optimal performance along with a reliable environment. The good Part is in case of need you can scale resources.
