15 Lower Acquisition and Ongoing Costs Acquisition costs 24% less than x86 servers with Windows Server and SQL Server databases 47% less than x86 servers with Linux and Oracle databases Three-year ongoing costs full time equivalent administrators 51% less than Windows / SQL Server 61% less than Linux / Oracle 1. ITG Management Brief: IBM i for Midsize Businesses - Minimizing Costs and Risks for Midsize Businesses; October IBM Corporation

16 New ITG Whitepapers "Three-year IT costs for use of IBM i 7.1 and Power Systems average 44 percent less than for x86 servers with Microsoft Windows Server and SQL Server, and 57 percent less than for x86 servers with Linux and Oracle databases." "No matter how one rates the value of IBM i s distinctive strengths, that value is increasing over time." 2 1.
