Thesaurus helps mid-market benefit from enterprise class mainframe technology

Midsize organisations can now exploit high-end mainframe technology with new entry-level IBM System z thanks to enterprise datacentre IT specialist, Thesaurus. The IBM Premier Business Partner ensures organisations can harness the powerful z10 Business Class (z10 BC) mainframe to dramatically improve performance, cut energy costs and consolidate server hardware while simplifying the data centre and its management.

Thesaurus helps organisations utilise these green by design scalable systems to allow the maximum achievable utilisation for fast and efficient processing. Designed as a powerful, entry-level version of the IBM z10 Enterprise Class mainframe, the z10 BC can support an incremental 1,000 e-mail users with the energy of a 100-watt light bulb, lowering energy costs by up to 93 per cent. Thesaurus ensures companies can put the mainframe server capacity to best use with high levels of security, control and automation.

Mike Vinten, CEO at Thesaurus, comments, “Midsize organisations increasingly need to operate as if they are much larger, global corporations. With its security capabilities, green credentials and sheer processing power matched only by its flexibility, it gives high levels of IT performance. The z10 BC is fast, very reliable and affordable. For those looking to restructure their distributed server environment, this is an ideal platform for cost, control and performance, as well as having the flexibility to accommodate rapid expansion.”

Compared to less than equivalent distributed servers, z10 BC is more than 40 per cent faster, has over 50 per cent more total capacity, 83 per cent smaller footprint and nearly four times the maximum memory.. Thesaurus’ IBM expertise helps customers simplify their storage infrastructures, support business continuity, safeguard their information and extract more value from their mainframe environments.
