What the IBM Power 10 Scale-Out Means.

IBM has announced new models of its Power10 server line with the introduction of mid-range and scale-out systems. The new servers join the Power10 E1080 server introduced in 2021.

The expanded portfolio is built around the next-generation IBM Power10 processor with twice the number of cores and memory bandwidth than previous Power generations.

New 1- or 2-socket scale-out servers include the entry-level Power S1014, as well as S1022, and S1024 options, bringing enterprise capabilities to remote-office/branch office environments.

Organisations have more ways to create business agility with a flexible and secure hybrid cloud infrastructure, to modernise applications with Red Hat OpenShift and automate IT operations to improve productivity.

Taking Advantage of IBM Power 10.

IBM Power 10 systems are designed to support hybrid cloud adoption and supports three operating environments – IBM i, AIX and Linux — with the same security, availability, and scalability features.

This is an opportunity for businesses to move their transactional and analytical workloads to a fully open source platform with Linux on Power10 providing a highly effective platform for running containerised workloads like cloud-native microservices with Red Hat OpenShift.

Use cases to take advantage of IBM Power 10 servers range from consolidating Oracle workloads on fewer servers and cores with lower software licensing costs, to faster provisioning, affordable scaling and maximum uptime for SAP HANA workloads, to more efficient AI inferencing by building and running AI inferencing models on the same system as the data.

IBM also announced the Power10 Midrange E1050, delivering record-setting 4-socket compute, Java, and ERP performance capabilities.
