The actual throughput that any user will experience will vary depending upon considerations such as the amount of multiprogramming in the user's job stream, the I/O configuration, the storage configuration, and the workload processed. Therefore, no assurance can be given that an individual user will achieve throughput improvements equivalent to the performance ratios stated here. IBM hardware products are manufactured from new parts, or new and serviceable used parts. Regardless, our warranty terms apply. All customer examples cited or described in this presentation are presented as illustrations of the manner in which some customers have used IBM products and the results they may have achieved. Actual environmental costs and performance characteristics will vary depending on individual customer configurations and conditions. This publication was produced in the United States. IBM may not offer the products, services or features discussed in this document in other countries, and the information may be subject to change without notice. Consult your local IBM business contact for information on the product or services available in your area. All statements regarding IBM's future direction and intent are subject to change or withdrawal without notice, and represent goals and objectives only. Information about non-ibm products is obtained from the manufacturers of those products or their published announcements. IBM has not tested those products and cannot confirm the performance, compatibility, or any other claims related to non-ibm products. Questions on the capabilities of non-ibm products should be addressed to the suppliers of those products. Prices subject to change without notice.

3 Agenda - Trends and Directions zenterprise virtualization Linux on IBM mainframe systems 3

4 zenterprise redefining Virtualization and Platform Management 4

5 Strategy: Dynamic, Integrated, & Workload Optimized New Capabilities, Performance and Efficiency Continued Advancements in System z Technology and Performance Special-purpose compute acceleration for greater levels of workload performance and scalability IT Infrastructure Integration Business service workloads are inherently heterogeneous; deployed on heterogeneous system structures A hybrid system is a heterogeneous virtualized platform, providing One Infrastructure Integration Integration provides investment protection, reduction of complexity, improved resiliency, and lower cost of ownership Dynamic IT Infrastructure Management Align the speed of IT execution with the pace of business; dynamic, automated, policybased resource deployment and optimization Respond to new business opportunities faster; provision, reallocate, and optimize infrastructure resources Manage the infrastructure in accordance with customer specified workload service level objectives 5

6 Management Layering IT Process and Service Management Application and Middleware Management OS Management Hardware and Platform Management APP APP APP APP APP APP Middleware z/os, zlinux, AIX x86 Linux, Windows Virtual Servers, Storage, Network Firmware and Hypervisors Server, Storage, Network, Accelerators, Appliances 6

7 As a Service (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) APP APP APP APP APP APP Middleware Software Platform Infrastructure z/os, zlinux, Flexible IT Standardized, consumable webdelivered services AIX x86 Linux, Win Attributes Virtual Servers, Storage, Network Flexible pricing Rapid Service Provisioning Firmware and Hypervisors Server, Storage, Network, Accounting, Accelerators, Appliances Feature on Demand Metering & Billing Elastic Scaling Advanced Virtualization Service Level Management Integration Shared Infrastructure Insight Control Optimization 7

8 Virtualization & IT Optimization Strategy Lead with zenterprise as an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) platform for workload-optimized, heterogeneous computing Focus on advanced System z virtualization management capabilities as the industry leading consolidation platform Continued focus on extreme virtualization scalability, efficiency, and RAS Drive enterprise-wide large consolidations Data serving Application serving Business Intelligence / Analytics Collaboration tools 8

9 zenterprise Unified Resource Manager - Infrastructure as a Service Operational Controls Hypervisor Management Virtual Server Lifecycle Management Workload Context Platform Performance Management Network Management Energy Management Ensemble Availability Management (outlook) Integration with GDPS Business Continuity Operations Integrated Support for Storage Failover (outlook) Virtual Servers Networks Performance Energy Hypervisors 9

10 zenterprise Unified Resource Manager (cont d) Dynamic, Workload Optimized, Infrastructure Management To integrate, monitor, and manage the heterogeneous infrastructure resources as a single, logical, virtualized system To manage the infrastructure resources in accordance with specified business service level objectives associated with the business service workloads To provide dynamic deployment and management of virtual server images and virtualized appliances in a service optimized infrastructure To provide built-in capability for upward integration with Data Center Management Tools 10

11 Linux on System z 11

12 Linux, Linux Distributions and IBM IBM puts specific emphasis working very closely, and cooperatively With the Linux community With IBM Linux distribution partners: Novell/SUSE and Red Hat With customers assuring our Linux-based solutions fit their very needs IBM s focus for Linux on mainframes: as a hosting platform for business-critical applications RAS built into the software design and assured by rigid testing Security and cryptography Scalability CPU, memory, I/O, storage, networking Autonomic self-optimizations Stack integration and optimization Hardware Hypervisor Operating System Middleware Applications Infrastructure management 12

13 Linux on IBM Mainframe Systems Linux on IBM mainframes and Virtualization Deliver extreme Virtualization and RAS meeting business needs Scale-out and scale-up consolidation as well as business workloads in support of z/os Ready for enterprise-wide private Clouds and high-end, Unix-type workload hosting Workloads focus* Business Applications, incl. SOA-based Like SAP, or IBM WebSphere family-based (Portal, ESB, Process Server, ) Database consolidation Like DB2 LUW, Oracle, Informix, MySQL,. Business Intelligence and Business Analytics Like Cognos, IBM InfosSphere Datastage, ilog and SPSS Infrastructure and IT Service Mgmt Like IBM Tivoli, Computer Associates, and BMC product suites etc. Collaboration Like Lotus Domino, Lotus Connection, 13 * Also where not specifically mentioned this of course also includes respective ISV software!

14 Linux Technology Outlook (excerpt) SLES 10 Enhancements zenterprise IEDN & INMN networking support AD Tools Valgrind support Performance & Scalability HyperPAV support & read/write track optimizations SLES 11 Enhancements zenterprise IEDN & INMN networking support AD Tools Valgrind support Performance & Scalability z196 scheduler optimizations Multi-track extensions for High-Performance FICON OSA checksum offload (outbound) Optimized qeth defaults Optimized math libraries Improved memory ballooning z/vm integration cmsfs write support Usability Health checker framework & base plug-ins Security 4096-bit RSA support 14 RHEL 5 Enhancements AD Tools Valgrind support RHEL 6 Enhancements zenterprise IEDN & INMN networking support AD Tools Valgrind support Eclipse support for system z Performance & Scalability z196 scheduler optimizations Multi-track extensions for High-Performance FICON OSA checksum offload (outbound) Optimized qeth defaults Optimized math libraries Improved memory ballooning z/vm integration cmsfs write support Usability Health checker framework & base plug-ins SAN utilities (trace, ping, ) Security 4096-bit RSA support

15 z/vm: near future Outlook* (- Single System Image & live guest relocation (LGR) support Improve business resilience for z/vm customers Addresses vertical capacity constraints with SSI as a cluster of 2, 3, o4 4 z/vm systems* Make z/vm and hardware maintenance non-disruptive to virtual servers Clustering approach preserves data and network integrity Single image facilitates failover Definitive system status within cluster Consistent guest definition across systems Cross-system control Facilitate horizontal growth of z/vm workloads Extend and improve current z/vm clustering technology Remove requirement for additional software Manage multiple z/vm images as a single resource pool Ease deployment and maintenance of multiple images Reinforce System z s leadership position in virtualization * Statement of Direction ** z/vm SSI & LGR require z10 or newer platform hardware 15
