IBM closed out its global partner conference Wednesday by encouraging its channel partners to sell a variety of hardware systems, anchored by Linux and hardened by a comprehensive security portfolio.
Tom Rosamilia, senior vice president of IBM Systems, told attendees of the PartnerWorld Leadership Conference in Orlando that a number of cutting-edge systems, including the z13s entry-level mainframe introduced the previous day, would empower IBM partners to be the disruptors in the market.
