Overall Satisfaction with IBM POWER9 Servers

We have 2 S922 and 2 S924's in our environment that we've recently bought. We purchased them to migrate from the old P7's and do the hardware refreshes. Currently, we use it for our Brazil environment specifically, but we are currently in talks to buy the 950 and 980 for our NA domain.
  • IBM POWER9 Servers are very fast.
  • High availability.
  • Very affordable.
  • I am still in the testing phase with these servers, so I don't have an answer to this question.
  • We expect to get our Return on Investment in about 18 months since these servers are fast and can handle much more workload and partitions than the 750 did.
IBM POWER9 Servers are fast. They come with flexibility as far as accommodating partitions are concerned and also have a fast response time.
IBM POWER9 Servers are efficient and can easily handle the high availability cluster workload with an easy set-up process.
