Management is looking to evaluate some IBM servers to replace some Sun
Boxes. The current theory is to port our home grown app to Linux and
run that on the IBM boxes.
My concern though, are we comparing apples to apples. Our current Sun
hardware we are running on is a 420R with 4Gig, 4x450Mhz with attached
A1000 for Raid5 disk.
>From what I've been told they're looking to evaluate:
pSeries 6H1
and
xSeries, 330, 360, and 440
Is this an apple to apple comparision? Is this a matter of someone
trying to sell a mainframe and jack the price later, etc? I haven't
heard the comparable prices yet.
:wq!
