Over the last five years, the volume of data exchanged between businesses has grown at an annual rate of up to 50%, with no sign of the trend changing.  55% of Internal and external system integration is accomplished through file transfer. Many large enterprises have hundreds or even thousands of file transfer endpoints with hundreds of other businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In high-performance, high-stakes operating environments, file transfers must be conducted in a secure<\/strong>, reliable<\/strong>, and precise way to ensure data delivery to the intended applications that underpin critical business operations. From the transfer of check image files and insurance claim records to credit card transactions and disaster-recovery synchronisations, business operations depend on secure file transfers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IBM z Systems running z\/OS is the most reliable large platform in the world<\/strong>. Many production shops only IPL their system once or twice after installing a new z\/OS release or applying maintenance. These LPARs are constantly challenged with software in various states of development. This degree of reliability is the envy of most other platforms, including HP Nonstop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IBM Sterling products form part of the B2B Data Transfer ecosystem and are leaders in the Data Exchange segment.  z\/OS<\/strong> is at the heart of the data transfer ecosystem of the IBM Sterling suite. The suite integrates z\/OS with public and private clouds and with object stores<\/strong>. The IBM\u00ae Z platform<\/strong> is a solid base of large IT systems due to its reliability and scalability.  z\/OS is a critical component in many eco-systems: hosting mission-critical applications and delivering extreme performance in a highly secure manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
