Linux and IBM

Stephane CapraceIT SpecialistIBM Corporation


Global forces are driving a fundamentally different world

The global financial crisis changed business priorities – and the IT that supports them

• New incentives to reduce cost • Financial crisis put new lens on TCO claims

The business landscape is evolving, and IT must evolve with it

• Increased M&A activity in a tight economy requires rapid integration

Technology has enabled solutions that weren't feasible in the last downturn

• Bandwidth has evolved, providing greater capacity and reliability at much lower costs

Fast-developing communities drive constant technology change

• Flexibility and rate of change higher than ever before
