Notes:
Performance is in Internal Throughput Rate (ITR) ratio based on measurements and projections using standard IBM benchmarks in a controlled environment. The actual throughput that
any user will experience will vary depending upon considerations such as the amount of multiprogramming in the user's job stream, the I/O configuration, the storage configuration, and
the workload processed. Therefore, no assurance can be given that an individual user will achieve throughput improvements equivalent to the performance ratios stated here.

Notable quotable
I predict that the last mainframe will be unplugged on March 15, 1996
Stewart Alsop, former InfoWorld columnist (now at Fortune Magazine), March, 1991

Annual growth in MIPS of over 30%

since 1992

More than $20B in mainframe

revenue since 1996 (when the last
one was to have been unplugged)

But there have been many changes

in the mainframe since 1991!

Helping to drive down the cost of IT

Now even more workloads can benefit from zIIP

zIIP can help to integrate data across the enterprise by optimizing resources and lowering the
cost of ownership for eligible data and transaction processing workloads
Centralized data serving First to exploit zIIP were workloads such as BI, ERP, and CRM
applications running on distributed servers with remote connectivity to DB2 V8
Network encryption zIIP becomes an IPSec encryption engine helpful in creating highly secure
connections in an enterprise
Serving XML data zIIP is enabled for XML parsing, first to exploit this is inserting and saving
DB2 9 XML data over DRDA
Remote mirror zIIP becomes a data mirroring engine with zIIP assisted z/OS Global Mirror
function (zGM, formerly XRC) helpful in reducing server utilization at recovery site (with z/OS V1.8
and above)
Exploiting of zIIPs by ISVs
zIIPs offer economics to help you
PLUS zIIP price is same for z10 EC as z9 EC and we offer no charge MES
upgrades when moving to new technology
