What it is

Power10 is the tenth generation of IBM’s server architecture. It is not x86, and the PowerVM hypervisor is part of the platform rather than something installed on it. AIX, IBM i and Linux run on it.

What it is for

Applications that require the platform. That is the honest reason Power sits in a datacentre: an ERP on IBM i, a database with a long history, a system that was never ported.

As a general virtualization platform alongside an x86 estate it is the wrong choice. Two platforms means two operating models.

What to watch

The question is usually not a technical one. A Power environment runs for a long time without drawing attention, which is exactly why the people who know it eventually retire. Planning a refresh today means planning the succession alongside it.

What we do with it

Draft, unreviewed

Draft, not yet reviewed. Power is in the building because of one application, and that application is usually an ERP. So the interesting question is rarely the server architecture. It is who will still be able to run the environment in five years.

This paragraph is a draft and nobody at soulTec has confirmed it yet. Everything above it describes the product and is checkable against the vendor.
