Category: Desktops, Laptops and OS, Servers and Server OS
Tags: software licensing, os, linux, server, infrastructure, software, management
Overview EBS Building Society, based in Dublin, Ireland, offers a broad range of banking, mortgage, saving and investment products. EBS wanted to rationalise its physical infrastructure, reducing the number of standalone servers to cut its management and maintenance costs, and reducing the total number of processors to cut software licensing fees. EBS selected SUSE Linux Enterprise Server as its new strategic platform, running on the IBM z/VM operating system on an IBM System z mainframe. EBS can quickly and easily create a new Linux virtual server for each new application, enabling the organisation to deliver new services cost-effectively in a standardised environment.
