IBM Technology Conference & Expo 2011
"As our planet becomes instrumented, interconnected and intelligent, the computing model is evolving to support it."
- Sam Palmisano, Chairman, President and CEO, IBM Corporation
Dramatic shifts are happening as our planet becomes smarter. Intelligent traffic systems, automated artificial waterways and security are paving the way for smarter cities. Breakthroughs in natural speech processing are allowing doctors to analyze thousands of pieces of information in real-time to help them detect life-threatening infections sooner. Every aspect of life is benefiting from the infusion of intelligence into the systems of the world.
Nothing is changing more than Information Technology - the way it's accessed, applied and architected. The opportunities for innovation have never been greater.
Discover a new era of IT - Smarter Computing - the era of Insight for Discovery.
Unlock new insights with Big DataSmarter Computing improves patient care
Virginia Commonwealth University Health System needed to transform its IT infrastructure to better support its growing information environment. With IBM's help, the medical center consolidated disparate storage devices and servers to create a secured environment that would support more efficient IT operations and improve access to data.
Meet unique application needs with
Optimized SystemsSmarter Computing in action
The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center had 20 hospitals with separate IT infrastructures. An expensive new data center was under discussion, but IBM came in with an option. UPMC consolidated its infrastructure, built a proactive management system and optimized service delivery. The result was a Smarter Computing infrastructure that doubled capacity, held costs flat and eliminated the need for the new data center.
Transform service delivery
through CloudEfficient growth through Smarter Computing
Faced with continued growth and an already massive IT infrastructure, Acxiom needed a smarter way to grow its services without growing the data center. Acxiom created a cloud computing environment leveraging the high-performance IBM eX5 enterprise. With five times the performance at 15 times less cost, the solution has helped Acxiom to scale services dramatically without expanding data center footprint.
