IBM p5 570 server 9117-570

IBM System p5 570 server 9117-570

The IBM 9117-570 System p5 570 mid-range server is a powerful 19-inch rack mount system that can be used for database and application serving, as well as server consolidation. IBM’s modular symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) architecture means you can start with a 2-core system and easily add additional building blocks when needed for more processing power (up to 16-cores) I/O and storage capacity. The IBM p5 570 includes IBM mainframe-inspired reliability, availability and serviceability features. The System p5 570 server 9117-570 is designed to be a cost-effective, flexible server for the on demand environment. Innovative virtualization technologies and Capacity on Demand (CoD) options help increase the responsiveness of the server to variable computing demands. These features also help increase the systems utilization of processors and system components allowing businesses to meet their computing requirements with a smaller system. By combining IBM’s most advanced leading-edge technology for enterprise-class performance and flexible adaptation to changing market conditions, the p5-570 server can deliver the key capabilities medium-sized companies need to survive in today’s highly competitive world.
