PRESS RELEASE Leading Organizations Choose IBM's Midrange Mainframe for On Demand Reliability

One hallmark of the
midrange success has been that the business partner channel accounts for
about 60 percent of z890 sales versus about 20 percent for the
top-of-the-line z990."

Leading companies from around the globe have embraced the z890 to run
mission-critical business applications:

-- Royal Canadian Mounted Police , Canada's national police service, uses
z/OS on z890 to run administrative and police systems that require 24/7
reliability and scalability in order to share information with other
Canadian police services, the FBI, Interpol and other law enforcement
agencies. The new z890 is attached to an IBM TotalStorage Enterprise
Storage Server 750. For more information
