Southeast Opensource for IBM Z Meetup Group

Enterprise IT executives encounter a paradox regarding infrastructure: the costs associated with cloud services are rising annually, while on-premises distributed systems introduce significant operational complexity.
This session will introduce a validated methodology that capitalizes on the strategic benefits of Linux, focusing on cost optimization, scalability, and minimizing operational overhead.

Discover how top organizations are cutting down on licensing expenses, streamlining operations, and enhancing the performance of their essential Linux workloads.

In this webinar, we will explore the financial rationale and business value proposition for running critical business applications on Linux on IBM Z and IBM LinuxONE.

We will share our insights on the industry trends related to the Mainframe and discuss "best fit" for purpose uses of IBM Z going forward.
We will conclude by presenting several case studies that demonstrate the benefits of running your Linux applications on IBM Z

Join us to hear from industry experts on modernizing your IT infrastructure.

Join us for an exclusive event exploring how IBM’s Linux compute platform is redefining the future of enterprise IT. This session will showcase how organizations can drive efficiency, security, and innovation by consolidating sprawling database environments onto a single, resilient platform—delivering both cost savings and simplified operations.

We’ll highlight how Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) provides the trusted open-source foundation for workloads at scale, and how IBM Fusion integrates seamlessly to deliver modern, flexible storage solutions built for performance and resiliency. Together, these technologies unlock a powerful path to modern infrastructure that supports everything from mission-critical databases to hybrid cloud deployments.

Key Topics Include:
• The business and technical advantages of IBM LinuxONE for mission-critical workloads
• Optimizing database environments to cut costs, increase security, and improve performance
• How RHEL powers innovation, flexibility, and consistency across environments
• Leveraging IBM Fusion to deliver scalable, high-performance, and sustainable storage
• Real-world use cases showing how enterprises are simplifying IT while strengthening resilience
