During the event, participants had the chance to learn about the latest IBM technology in the fields of servers and storage. Likewise, solutions based on this technology, was presented, targeting different IT infrastructure strategies, from a simple architecture, such as a stand-alone server that addresses all of an organization’s computational needs, to more complex ones, spanning to include several servers, executing different operating systems (AIX, IBM I, and Linux), integrated in IT infrastructures with heterogeneous solutions.
The sessions that covered the technological scope, were of particular interest to participants, as well as the session that surveyed architectures of reference and success cases, namely, the Flex2000, FUCHS, MoreTextile, and UQ Consult.
The event ended with a Cocktail & Networking. The participants were given a guided tour of the National Press Museum, were they had the opportunity to view some relics of the graphic industry and the renowned Porto Cartoon exposition, while enjoying a cocktail and sharing their experiences.
