IBM confirms that the mainframe will survive us all

They have been killing him for more than 20 years, but the Mainframe not only still present in hundreds of companies around the world, but, thanks to companies like IBM, it seems to be living a second youth.And although it would be risky to affirm that the Mainframe has become fashionable again, the need to store more and more data and for a longer time, is taking companies to make new investments in this field.

Ibm has just confirmed that it will launch a new model of its Mainframes Z series throughout the first half of this year, also highlighting how this type of equipment has improved income in the company's infrastructure area.

In this sense, during the presentation of the company's results for the last quarter, James Kavanaugh Financial Director of the company, stressed that the new launch will have a positive impact on IBM revenues, which reached 16.7 billion dollars inThe last quarter and that have added 57,350 million dollars in the last year (2.2 billion more than the previous year).

The good omens of Kavanaugh occur at a time when the sales of his latest mainframe, the Z15, has dropped four points, but we must bear in mind that we talk about a team that was launched in 2019. Even this being so, this being so, this being so, this being so, this being so, this being so, this being so, this being so, this being so, this being so, this being so, this being so, this being so, this being soThe company stressed that the Z15 sales cycle has worked better than that of the previous model, and there have been more MIPS (millions of instructions per second) than in any previous program in the history of the company.

In the case of the team that will arrive on the market in the coming months, publications such as The Next Platform highlight that it will use the new Telum processor, equipped with 22,500 million transistors in a 7 nanometers process and has been specially designed to respond to large loadswork related to artificial intelligence.

One of the great arguments that IBM is using to attract new customers to the world of Mainframe, is to position it as a component of great potential for the development of the hybrid cloud.

In this sense, Arvind Krishna, CEO of IBM, stressed in that same presentation of results that IBM clients are "anxious to take advantage of the hybrid cloud and AI to advance their businesses", which seems like a hopeful message for thePush that the company is going to do when marketing the new team.
