    Benefits to Resident

    This residency will assist the residents in understanding and using PowerVS for AIX and Linux workloads. As enterprises continue to moving workloads to the cloud, PowerVS provides a flexible and cost effective platform for applications running on AIX or Linux on Power. By moving to a compatible architecture, clients are able to quickly migrate workloads without having to refactor them for a new architecture.

    Other use cases for PowerVS include:

    Disaster recovery on the cloud

    Application development and testing on the cloud

    Backup to the cloud

    After finishing this residency, the resident will be able to assist their enterprise (or their clients) in adopting a Power based cloud infrastructure.

    IBM Redbooks want technical practitioners to be recognized for their newly gained knowledge, experience, and accomplishments. Therefore, upon successful delivery of the publication produced by this IBM Redbooks residency, you will become eligible to earn an IBM Redbooks Digital Badge issued through Credly.
