IBM Z for secure cloud computing and digital transformation

The platform is a key element to ensure the continuous secure operation of large critical IT systems. IBM Z users benefit from a high availability of their applications with over 99.99%. Compliance with service levels is simplified by a very fast recovery of the operations thanks to a special instant system restore function. Moreover, up to 500 unalterable data copies can be stored for analyzing and restoring production systems. And IBM continues to develop IBM Z further to always offer its users a state-of-the-art solution.

Application areas of the IBM® Z platform

IBM Z is primarily used by msg customers in high-regulated industries such as the financial sector to ensure the continuous operation of large, sensitive and critical IT systems. However, IBM Z can of course be used for all (critical) IT solutions, regardless of the industry. The platform also enables the development of applications based on artificial intelligence.
