For success in today’s demanding marketplace, a business needs to maximize the return on their IT investments, and improve responsiveness of systems and people. By delivering leadership technologies and exceptional price/performance, IBM offerings are able to improve your bottom line. But competing against larger companies also requires an investment in technology and innovation that has to be justifiable from day one. The ability to cut costs with highly energy efficient solutions and leadership virtualization make the IBM BladeCenter JS22 Express a desirable blade server for organizations of any size. Companies can save on energy costs while managing growth, complexity and risk, all while using technology that makes innovation in their business real and sets them apart from the competition. The exceptional price/performance in a virtualized environment; breadth of available applications; reliability, avail-ability, serviceability (RAS) characteristics; energy efficiency; and leadership virtualization of the BladeCenterJS22Express makes it a highly desirable blade server for organizations of any size. Powered by IBMPOWER6™processor cores, the JS22Express will bring significant rewards to clients who want a durable server solution for con-solidating multiple applications and servers into a single BladeCenter transitioning from traditional rack servers tohighly efficient blades, distributing Java™ and Web serving applications, running high performance computing(HPC) applications and implementing commercial applications. The flexibility to use the leading-edge AIX® (industrial-strength UNIX® from IBM),i5/OS®1and Linux® operating systems(OS)—concurrently if desired—broadens the application offerings avail-able and increases the ways clients can put this power to work. The BladeCenter JS22 Express server,a feature-rich, pre-configured blade, is the answer to meet the stringent requirements of small businesses for advanced technology at an attractive price. The JS22 Express delivers manynew leading-edge IBM technologies—support for AIX Version6, i5/OS1V6R1and Linux operating systems; EnergyScale and PowerVM (formerly known as Advanced POWERVirtualization) technologies; and AltiVec™ SIMD acceleration functionality in a single, high-performance, yet cost-efficient blade server with features designed for high reliability. IBM Systems Director Active EnergyManager™ and browser-based Integrated Virtualization Manager soft-ware makes it easier than ever to achieve increased utilization and energy efficiency by utilizing the PowerVM and EnergyScale capabilities of the system. Managing growth, complexity and risk Built on the promise of the IBM BladeCenter family of products—easy-to-use, integrated platforms with a high degree of deployment flexibility, scalability and manageability—the BladeCenter JS22Express is a premier SMB (Small and Medium Business) blade for 64-bit applications. It represents one of the most cost-efficient solutions for UNIX, i5/OS and Linux deployment available in the market. Further enhanced by its ability to be installed in the same chassis with other BladeCenter LS, HS and JS21blade servers, the JS22 Express can deliver the rapid return on investment that small businesses demand. The JS22 Express blade has been pre-configured and tested by IBM. Based on proven UNIX technology, it offers significant improvements in performance and reliability features over the previous generation JS21 blade server. Utilizing a 4.0GHz 64-bit POWER6processor core and available in a 4-core configuration, it is designed to deliver outstanding performance at compelling prices. With faster and more reliable double data rate 2 (DDR2) memory options and Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) disk subsystem, the BladeCenter JS22 Express is designed for increased uptime and enhanced performance. Along with built-in sup-port for PowerVM Editions for advanced virtualization, the JS22Express offers an ideal blade server solution for diverse needs from HPC,x86 Infrastructure consolidation and business performance applications like smaller database, OLTP and Business Intelligence. Delivering outstanding deployment flexibility, the JS22 Express may be installed in the BladeCenter S, BladeCenter H or BladeCenter HT chassis to help optimize current and future investments. The BladeCenter JS22 Express is a blade optimized for real-world solutions that impact the bottom line. Combining AIX and Linux support with the high-speed BladeCenter H chassis, the JS22Express delivers leadership SIMD acceleration for data-intensive or floating-point-intensive applications aswell as HPC workloads such as weather forecasting, seismic processing, molecular dynamics and computational fluid dynamics. When combined with BladeCenter S chassis, it becomes an ideal solution for deploying blades in an office and distributed enterprise environment and is the perfect alternative to traditional rack servers.
