SUMMARY

Mainframe as a Green Machine

The mainframe electricity costs are ten times less than that of a data center. The costs of electricity are certain to escalate, creating an even more dramatic difference between the mainframe and distributed server systems. In some parts of the country particularly in the Southwest, they have simply run out of electricity. In other parts of the country, for example Seattle, the cost of electricity goes to $.52 per kilowatt-hour at peak hours of air conditioning use, considerably higher than the $.12 per kilowatt-hour used in this analysis. Thus market forces will surely force use of the mainframe as a green

Resurgence Of The Mainframe

The biggest challenge facing the analyst community is the resurgence of the mainframe. The mainframe has shared workload capability that is being upgraded to provide capability of real time processing. Services oriented architecture (SOA) provides the new flexibility for the mainframe providing for reusable components of code.

SOA is used to create flexible response to changing market conditions. SOA collaborations create a way to reuse existing modules of code and organize business process. Automated process depends on having the ability to combine SOA modules from the desktop. SOA collaboration code comes from the existing engine vendors supporting modules.

IBM is the leader in creating the ability to consolidate its integration modules with foundation architecture. The foundation architecture is well evolved as the middleware product set configured as an engine that supports Web services implementation. IBM SOA is the defacto industry standard software used in creating business integration foundation systems.

Real Time Internet Processing

Real time Internet processing is needed in a range of applications to adapt to the new channel for business process. The Internet is central to the supply chain and it is used as a vehicle for direct sales. The Internet changes everything. Data centers cost $60 million to build, the mainframe can handle the same level of transactions and network traffic with a $6 million installation. This means the mainframe provides a ten time cost advantage to the enterprises that adopt it for new workload.

IT System Reliability

IT system reliability return on investment ROI is measured by SLA service level availability and the cost of downtime to an organization. As the Internet emerges as significant channel, the industry measure of the cost of downtime is $1 million per minute system reliability becomes a significant competitive market factor. Efficient IT operations represent a primary cost of doing business. It is here that the mainframe achieves competitive advantage. The most efficacious measure of IT processing is measure of workload that can be preformed reliably and securely. Mainframe vs. distributed server ROI analysis compares and contrasts the features and benefits of the two computing systems for a particular set of metrics for a particular application. Benefits of the mainframe recognized by the industry are scalability, availability, security, shared workload efficiency, network efficiency, throughput efficiency, integration efficiency, and electrical and space efficiency.
