Dette er en stor oversikt som IBM UK publiseres ca annen hver måned jevnlige til IBM’s partnere, vi kan videresende dette til IBM’s kunder, og den består av artikler relatert hovedsakelig til IBM POWER plattformen. Selv om det er mye så er hensikten at dette er noe for enhver smak. Noen liker noe, andre synes andre områder er bra, man velger selv det man ønsker å lese.
Inndelt i følgende hovedoversikter:
- Top5 stuff
- POWER news stuff
- IBM Europe Announcement letters
- POWER techie stuff
- Upcoming events, education or training stuff
- Other stuff
- Useful links
Og her følger en detaljert oversikt på alt:
Top 5 stuff
1) IBM I: The Most Amazing IBM Product You’ve Never Heard Of“IBM I is the closest thing to a software platform superhero I’ve yet seen and likely the safest and most powerful server platform you’ve never heard of.”
“After the briefing on IBM I, I was thinking that if you could wrap this platform in Spandex, you could put it in the next Avengers movie as a real live superhero”,
“What makes IBM I so amazing is that it is very similar in concept to hyper-converged hardware but in software.”
2) Join our 48-hour POWER tour, starting in Las Vegas. No packing or passport required – enjoy! 48 Hours in POWER – Travel Guide to IT Transformation
3) Last year Mono was ported to AIX and IBM i. Mono offers the capability to run the open source .NET runtime on Power Systems. Building Out The .NET Stack Around Mono for IBM i
4) What trends and attitudes shape the IBM i modernisation? Check out the 2019 State of IBM i Modernization report, download from here
5) Launchpad to POWER9 a collection of useful information, videos, pod casts etc to guide you upgrading your infrastructure to the cognitive era.
