The All-Everything Operating System: IBM i for Business Means Business!!! – hinnat ja saatavuus

Sometimes the best deal in town is a bona fide steal and you're the one robbed. Any "low cost" server that fails more often than its equally low business value would justify its worth no more than a bushel of pencils. The deceptive allure of low pricing has played bandit in more than a few episodes of server pillaging. Fortunately, cost is no longer the paramount factor, now displaced by business value and resiliency. Small and large businesses alike are fed up with their systems' chronic unavailability. There no longer exists the luxury of indulging the whims and caprices of every unresponsive system or lingering down situation. Resiliency is the new paradigm. The new business world operates in an exponentially more real time fashion. Transactions and information flow with the currents of broadband. Transactions execute immediately. Tolerance for downtime has dissipated. What can a business, of any size, use to stay afloat? The all-everything operating system, IBM i, is the best answer, short of a pencil. Trust the Casinos, who currently use IBM i. Any doubts of their pressing need for systems reliability?
