Object-Based is a Foundation for Trusted Security

Object Based Architecture enables integrity, security, and virus-resistance Integration of the operating system and middleware results in a system that is easier to secure IBM i has a track record of significantly fewer security advisories than Microsoft Windows Server
Secunia has issued 193 security advisories for Windows Server 2003 with only 2 for IBM i

Windows Server 2003

Between 2003 and 2009, Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition was affected by 193 Secunia issued advisories, 6% of which remain unfixed

Power 520 with IBM i running DB2 Web Query Stopped extracting data to Microsoft tools "Before the introduction of IBM DB2 Web Query, I would typically have to wait until the end of the month in order to discover if my key metrics were being met. Now with DB2 Web Query, my metrics are ondemand, interactive. I not only see my metrics daily through pie charts and graphs, but I also have both my dollars and counts tabled before me on one page! To update, I simply refresh my screen. This tool has reduced a laborious monthly task to daily usable data all with a simple key stroke! How great is that!

App App App App App App App App App

Power 550 with IBM i Six municipalities consolidated SAP applications from IBM i, HP-UX, and Linux into six IBM i subsystems within a single partition The beauty of the subsystem approach is that you can run completely separate systems within a single logical partition and a single instance of the IBM i operating system. This can significantly reduce software licensing costs.

Relied on IBM since its founding in 1985,

Technology Independent Machine Interface ensures IBM i application compatibility as the hardware technology changes
IBM i releases and versions offer binary compatibility and hardware optimization Recompilation has not been required OS upgrades available from N-2

We came to the conclusion that the IBM i was the best for our needs. 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.
Ken Spangler VP of IT

IBM i supports many applications languages

RPG applications are extremely efficient for running business transaction applications IBM continues to enhance RPG supporting Web Services, XML, Eclipsebased development tools, integration with Java and PHP
