Lower Total Cost of Ownership IBM i has a track record of delivering
lower total cost of ownership than x86servers
IBM i and Power servers offers three-year IT costs that are: (ITG Study*)
41% less than for use of x86 Windowsservers and SQL Server
47% less than for use of x86 Linux serversand Oracle
7-Eleven Stores Pty LtdRunning SAP applications on IBM i for 10 years
Features like dynamic logical partitioning andintegration with Windows-based systems meanthat IBM i and Power Systems can provide near-100 per cent availability for our SAP and non-SAP
applications, while ensuring high utilization ofresources and a very attractive TCO.

"Before the introduction of IBM DB2 Web Query, Iwould typically have to wait until the end of the monthin order to discover if my key metrics were being met.Now with DB2 Web Query, my metrics are on-demand, interactive. I not only see my metrics dailythrough pie charts and graphs, but I also have bothmy dollars and counts tabled before me on one page!To update, I simply refresh my screen. This tool hasreduced a laborious monthly task to daily usable dataall with a simple key stroke! How great is that!

Work Management - Virtualization from Day 1Multiple Applications on a Single Server
Almost all customers run multiple
applications on a single IBM ienvironment
IBM i subsystems provide workload isolation
IBM i systems typically run at a higherutilization rate than x86 systems
Virtualized to manage multipleapplications and processes
Gemeente Goes
Power 550 with IBM iSix municipalities consolidated SAP applications
from IBM i, HP-UX, and Linux into six IBM isubsystems within a single partition
The beauty of the subsystem approach is that youcan run completely separate systems within asingle logical partition and a single instance of theIBM i operating system. This can significantly
reduce software licensing costs.
