The invisibility cloak of complexity

Integration

• Integration is the essence of IBM i • It’s what the ”i” stands for • It’s simple • It’s reliable • Good integration

- hides complexity - makes products simple to use - makes products highly reliable

Shoes that fit every occasion

TIMI

• An abstraction layer insulating users & applicationsfrom underlying hardware

• IBM i companies move without disruption

- Different processor generations

- Different disk technologies

• Protects investments in business applications

Where did I leave my keys?

Single Level Storage

• No DBA to define where files, programs are stored

• Memory, hard disks, SSDsall appear in a contiguous address space

• Objects automatically managed with device-independent addressing
