IBM Power Systems are designed for the future and provide an alternative to x86 servers for Linux applications. Power Systems servers from IBM offer robust and scalable platforms optimized for enterprise cloud, analytics and open source software. IBM is investing heavily in technologies like 7nm chips, Linux on Power, and storage software to strengthen Power Systems' role in these areas.

Strengthening Power’s role in Linux, analytics and cloud
Linux is by far the dominant cloud platform (about half of enterprises use Linux to build
clouds)1. In 2013, IBM launched new Linux on Power capabilities, optimized for enterprise
cloud and analytics. Throughout 2014, IBM launched POWER8 offerings optimized from
the ground up for big data and analytics, and Linux

… věříme, že tento trend bude pokračovat, takže do roku 2018 bude
více jak 70% nových in-house aplikací vyvíjeno na OSDBMS a 50 %
stávajících RDBMS instancí bude přemigrováno nebo v procesu
migrace na OSDBMS.

• SugarCRM’s impressive 25 percent year-over-year growth in core ARR was marked by
growing demand for Sugar among larger businesses. In the second quarter, the
company saw:
• 175 percent year-over-year growth in the number of seats per new customer
• 164 percent year-over-year growth in average new deal size
• 68 percent year-over-year growth in core ARR from accounts greater than $100,000
• 42 percent year-over-year growth in average ARR per customer
