Start Planning for Power7 Iron Now
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
IBM's future Power7 chip may be just about done as far as the engineering is concerned, and its server designs might also be more or less completed as well. But there is plenty of time yet to tweak the boxes, and I doubt very much that the final packaging and pricing for the future Power7 machinery is anywhere close to being set. Which is a pity, really.

Oracle-Sun Exadata V2, Meet iDatabase V1
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
This will be a recurring theme for me in the next couple of years as I watch Oracle and its soon-to-be server, storage, and operating system division (formerly known as Sun Microsystems) preach to us about the benefits of an application development system with a consistent and tightly integrated software stack tuned very closely to iron. The recurring theme will be that I get really annoyed. READ MORE >

Mad Dog 21/21: Big Blue's Sun Strategy Gamble--IBM Without i
by Hesh Wiener
Users and resellers of Sun Microsystems iron have been shaken up by Oracle's acquisition plans. IBM is trying to exploit the situation, picking off as many Sun accounts as possible. Big Blue says its Power-AIX systems have won over many customers and adds that its mainframes and System x products are making big inroads, too. What is missing from this picture is the i-on-Power line. This could prove problematic. IBM's dropping the i may mean dropping business machines, too, opening market gaps that Oracle and Microsoft can exploit, even in accounts where IBM is nominally the prime vendor. READ MORE >

by Timothy Prickett Morgan
The non-stop boom in disk storage hit a wall six months ago, a wall called the economic meltdown, and sales of disk arrays are still slumping even as the economies of the world look like they are starting to stabilize a bit. The market analysts at IDC say that both internal disk arrays embedded in servers as well as external ones that link up to them from the outside in myriad ways have been impacted by the meltdown.
