IBM has unveiled its most powerful mainframe computer yet and said it will offer customers the chance to tap computing resources as needed without buying a dedicated machine.
I really like the name of that sucker "T-Rex" that's a good comeback to Sun's comments about the mainframes.
Does this mean that you may rent them for a period of time? And they didnt mention the on-demand price, then again i reckon those who are looking at mainframes, are bigger companies who can drop the 1 million.Quote:
But customers who only occasionally need such capabilities won't have to buy their machine. IBM also is deploying z990s at its data centres as part of the company's "on-demand" computing strategy.
Interesting article. :cool:
