This white paper will provide a road map to the most effective strategies and technologies to protect data and provide fast recovery should data be lost or corrupted due to accident or malicious action.

Achieving effective and efficient high availability protection for larger IBM i environments requires careful thought and clear understanding of the technology options. This white paper describes what you need to know in order to make an informed decision about IBM i high availability strategies so that your business requirements for Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO) are not compromised

This white paper provides a road map to the most effective strategies and technologies to protect data in AIX environments and provide fast recovery should data be lost or corrupted due to accident or malicious action. The paper also outlines the benefits of continuous data protection (CDP) technologies for AIX.

Continuous member service is an important deliverable for credit unions, and. the continued growth in assets and members means that the impact of downtime is affecting a larger base and is therefore potentially much more costly. Learn how new data protection and recovery technologies are making a huge impact on downtime for credit unions that depend on AIX-hosted applications.

If you are concerned about the future of your proprietary RISC platform, you need to consider a migration from proprietary to open, from UNIX to Linux while you still have options. You do not want to be forced to pour good money after bad upgrading an obsolete architecture in order simply to stay afloat. See how servers using Intel Xeon processors can offer better performance for a lower price while saving energy.

How New Technologies Are Making Data Protection,Recovery and High Availability Easier and More Affordable This white paper provides a road map to the most effective strategies and technologies to protect data in AIX environments and provide fast recovery should data be lost or corrupted due to accident or malicious action. The paper also outlines the benefits of continuous data protection (CDP) technologies for AIX.

DaimlerChrysler South Africa, a subsidiary to the global leader in the automotive industry, needed to reduce annual operating costs of its mainframe-based systems while maintaining service levels. The backbone of DaimlerChrysler's network of dealerships is the parts supply chain management system, making sure that the right parts are available for service technicians at the right place and at the right time so that customers' service needs are taken care of as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Valero Energy Corporation (NYSE: VLO) is one of the top U.S. refining companies, with about 22,000 employees and revenues of $119 billion. A market leader, Valero has approximately 5,800 retail sites and operates on a retail and wholesale basis across 44 U.S. states, Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean region. Valero needed to reduce the risks and costs associated with their core systems that were running on a mainframe and to increase competitive advantage in the delivery of energy services for both retail and wholesale. They chose to migrate to UNIX, achieving 50% increased performance and reducing system complexity.

A rewind button for applications, files and transactions? That's what continuous data protection (CDP) technology provides to managers of IBM AIX and i5/OS operating environments. CDP rapidly recovers accidentally deleted or otherwise corrupted data and provides many other valuable benefits. Read this informative eight-page paper to learn more about this breakthrough data protection technology.

Companies often need more than tape backup to protect critical applications running on AIX operating environments. Learn options and strategies, including how continuous data protection (CDP) technology makes any point-in-time recovery possible and how EchoStream technology has significantly improved the recovery time and data recovery points for AIX.

Continuous member service is an important deliverable for credit unions, and. the continued growth in assets and members means that the impact of downtime is affecting a larger base and is therefore potentially much more costly.

The ability to deliver and assure optimum availability to clinical systems and data is critical to the success of healthcare organizations. As providers become increasingly dependent on electronic medical records and medical delivery technologies, they must keep those applications, databases and networks available and accessible-no matter what. This white paper shows how information availability solutions ensure the availability and accessibility of AIX data and applications, regardless of planned or unplanned interruptions.

This report includes the input of over 4,000 companies surveyed during 2009 that run AIX and IBM i (i5/OS) environments. The survey focuses on data protection and recovery technologies/strategies as well as migration plans to new IBM Power System servers. Learn how your peers are striking the balance between the often conflicting priorities of IT availability, system performance, service level agreements, IT staffing and budgets.

For IT departments looking to bring their AIX environments up to the next step in data protection, IBM's PowerHA (HACMP) connects multiple servers to shared storage via clustering. This offers automatic recovery of applications and system resources if a failure occurs with the primary server. But clustering only makes the server resilient, not the data storage. That is where real-time replication of the data store is essential. Learn all about how AIX data replication works and how it benefits HACMP clusters.

This information packed 29-page report reviews the technology spectrum of resilience and recovery solutions available for IBM i (i5/OS) and AIX environments running on IBM Power Systems, including the latest, next-generation solutions. The goal of the paper is to help prepare IT professionals to better evaluate and adopt appropriate AIX and IBM i technologies for disaster recovery.

This course will cover common considerations when upgrading from AIX v5.3 (or 5.2) to AIX v6.1. It includes basic instruction for the upgrade and will also prepare you for some of the common "gotchas."

In this white paper, you'll see how Lotus Notes 8.5 boosts bandwidth by storing one copy of attachments, rather than allowing duplicate via threads. You'll also discover how upgrading lets you elevate collaboration and enhance efficiency with tools that empower users to take action, create and share knowledge, and collaborate with teams.

Read this astounding case study to see how migrating to IBM Lotus software with a broadly functional messaging platform increased the efficiency and support of mobile users for the Kentucky Baptist Convention. Then you'll learn how your own business can improve communications, drive down costs and eliminate the need for additional Web software.
