IBM i – Virtual by Design

� Six Dutch municipalities cooperate to implement a shared services model

– IT centralized in Gemeente Goes

– Collectively, some 1200 employees serving around 110,000 citizens

– Education, health, police & social services

� Originally, each managed its own IT

– Three ran SAP on Windows

– Three on Linux or Unix

� Today, all six municipalities operate SAP independently on a single, shared platform

� Multiple servers consolidated to a single Power Systems server running IBM i

– One partition

– Municipalities isolated in subsystems

� IBM i provides operational advantages

– High utilization, around 90%

– Stable operations

– Very fast system response times

� Lower maintenance, administration and software license costs

� Future growth without disruption

“We estimate that we will achieve cost reductions of approximately 40 percent, and the other Gemeentes should be making similar savings.”

IBM i and Software as a Service

� Over 90 ISVs currently offer SaaS solutions on IBM Power Systems with IBM i

– Lowers cost of solution acquisition

– Lowers cost of ongoing maintenance

� Unique technology that is core to IBM i enables ISV to deploy SaaS with little change to their applications

– Low cost for ISV to offer SaaS solution

– Multiple deployment models available today for varied customer needs without the need for complicated cloud computing technology

Delivering Competitive Advantage responsively & cost effectively

� FedEx Ground

– Nearly 3 million packages picked up daily

– 7 to 8 million packages in the delivery pipeline at any one time

– Average daily transactions exceed 1 billion

� Systems provide package rating and invoicing; optimized delivery routing; and timely, accurate tracking data

� IBM i is the foundation of operations

– Virtualization for flexible resource allocation and nimble growth in capacity

– High system availability to meet customer expectations for near-perfect reliability

– Rapid application development supports new function, faster

� Low TCO helps keep overall cost structure down, improving competitiveness

“Its stability, TCO and speed of development convinced us we should not only maintain our mid-range environment, but expand it to keep it at the center of our operations for the long term. IBM i has enabled us to grow the scale of our environment, while at the same time become more nimble and resilient.”
