To start off the day, Jethsibeth Palencia and Kevin Breitenother will kick-off the session with an introduction to two of the newest mainframes in the IBM Z family – IBM z14 Model ZR1 and LinuxONE Rockhopper II, announced on April 10th, 2018. They feature full systems redesign and cutting-edge industry leading security to the platform. With IBM z14, you can rapidly develop and deliver high-quality services deployed on a trusted infrastructure that is flexible, efficient, and resilient, and includes enhanced security features all in a standard 19” rack.

It combines flexible deployment options with competitive economics that are directly relevant to those solutions. z/OS Offering Manager, Scott Englemen will discuss this new pricing approach and the types of solutions that benefit from it.
