Free up mainframe CPU by redistributing workload to zIIP
Want to reclaim capacity without changing code or disrupting your business? Love your mainframe and want to use it to power new applications? Create space for growth when you redirect your Adabas & Natural workload to IBM® z System® Integrated Information Processor (zIIP).
Cut CPU workload in half
Redistribute up to 50% of GPP CPU and maximize execution time on zIIP.
Optimize zIIP throughput
Our technology optimizes throughput by minimizing the number of path switches.
Run at full processor speed
Accelerate batch runs by taking advantage of higher throughput and additional computing power.
Avoid coding changes
You’ll stay production-ready because no code changes are required.
Choose batch or OLTP
Run both batch processing and OLTP on zIIP with Adabas & Natural to optimize capacity and performance.
See, decide and act using reports
Forecast how much load to redirect to zIIP. Monitor zIIP use and other parameters to set and track KPIs.
zIIP Enablement Products
Adabas for zIIP
Optimize mainframe capacity by redistributing Adabas workload from IBM GPP to low-cost zIIP processors for execution.
Natural for zIIP
Redistribute Natural batch and online workloads from the GPP to zIIP without changing code. Natural for IMS and Db2 support available
Lower mainframe TCO and boost capacity
Release budget—and mainframe capacity—for new innovations when you offload mainframe workload to zIIP. You’ll save significantly on operating costs with minimal effort.
Boost mainframe capacity and enable innovation
Release mainframe capacity for new innovations when you redistribute workload to zIIP. Create room for strategic projects and scale for growth with minimal effort.
Create room for growth without disruption
Avoid the disruption of re-platforming. Keep your mainframe optimized and continue benefiting from IBM Z innovations by redistributing workload to zIIP rather than straining GPP capacity.
Proven Results, Fast
Customers across industries are reclaiming mainframe capacity and seeing results in days, not months:
- A Nordic insurance company redistributed 90% of batch and 85% of online processes to zIIP in under a month
- A UK automotive company reduced CPU consumption by 20% and created space for new partner workloads
An Asia-Pacific bank was fully operational in just two days — with zero code changes required
Our customers—truly connected enterprises
This power management company offloaded more than 90% of Adabas & Natural workload and cut MSUs in half.
Moving workload to zIIP freed up capacity for new applications such as artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things.
