The document summarizes key findings from an IBM study on data center design best practices for operational efficiency. It found that 21% of clients have highly efficient data centers that allocate 50% more of their IT budget to new projects rather than maintenance. Characteristics of these centers include optimizing assets, designing flexibility, and using automation. The implications are to right-size capacity and availability for best return, design flexibility, optimize long-term expenses not just upfront costs. Analytics can be used to right-size capacity tailored to a company's business growth needs.

Smart Grid Operational Services: Selecting the Right Mobile SolutionCapgemini
Whether you manage field service operations within the utilities industry or some other large business operation, a mobile computing solution can strengthen your field service capabilities, lower your operating costs and improve customer service.
With mobile devices in hand, field technicians, engineers and supervisors alike discover that information flow increases and costly data entry errors become issues from the past.
The mobile computing market abounds with “cool” devices, but embracing innovative technology alone can easily distract an organization from finding an intelligent mobile solution that will ultimately meet the needs of its users.
In other words, preparing for the technology is every bit as critical as selecting it.
This paper describes the 3 stages recommended for deciding on, and ranking the importance of, available solution options, and how proper planning can improve the total cost of ownership (TCO) of the solution. It also reviews common obstacles that impede deployment and thwart a positive return on investment.
Unprecedented performance and scalability demonstrated for meter data management. The benchmark was performed at the IBM Power Systems Benchmark Center in Montpellier, France, on
a single IBM POWER7® system, utilizing 16 cores
IBM collaborates with health benefits organizations to help them operate efficiently, achieve better quality and performance, and develop new care models to create member value.
Going Mobile Is Smart
Utility companies are quickly adopting mobile technology to drive efficiencies.
This is because mobile solutions present countless opportunities to improve employee workflow, maximize the quality of data in back end systems and cut paperwork from everyday processes.
How Intelligent Operations Enables Proactive Data Center ManagementITOutcomes
CIOs often live and die by the data center’s performance and availability numbers.
Nine out of 10 respondents to a 2014 survey of data center professionals showed that service availability is highly critical to their performance.
But at the same time, 41 percent of organizations missed their service availability goals for mission-critical systems in 2013. Not surprisingly, organizations with higher service availability goals were significantly less successful in meeting their goal.
But here’s a new way of thinking about improving data center metrics: IT departments should no longer be concerned with improving system performance and reducing downtime for its own sake. Rather, consider these as metrics for enabling IT to deliver more of what the business needs, when it needs it.
In other words, it’s time to transform infrastructure and application measurements from tactical to strategic metrics.
IBM software is optimized to work together in integrated solutions and architected on open standards that allow it to work with other software and hardware.
Green, Governance and Growth are the three quintessential features for a next generation data center; resulting in lower cost, better industry compliance and contribution to overall business growth.
HCL and EMC have joined hands to provide G3 data centers in post recession era helping CIOs to transform their Data Centers.

If you visit Revlon, Inc.’s data center in Oxford, North Carolina, don’t blink, or you’ll miss the infrastructure. Just two racks house roughly 3.6PB and 800 virtual servers that process an average of 14,000 transactions per second (TPS) from systems around the world, with 99.9999% uptime. When people walk into our data center, they ask, “That’s it?” The answer is yes, and it runs everything.

IBM Smarter Business 2012 - PureSystems - PureDataIBM Sverige
År 2013 kommer nästan 70 % av företagens driftkostnader att läggas på existerande IT. Endaste en av fem organisationer lägger idag mer än 50 % av IT-budgeten på nya projekt. Med vetskap om den digitala tillväxt vi har framför oss, handlar ödesfrågan enligt Don Boulia, Vice President Strategy, IBM Software Group, därför om hur väl ett företags infrastruktur klarar förändringarna. Nya lanseringen i familjen IBM PureSystems, PureData, adresserar utmaningarna med stora datamängder.
