With IBM Cognos 8 BI for Linux on System z, customers can gain a single, current and consolidated view of business information to support operational processes and disperse to the right teams across the company. Aligning such a broad range of BI capabilities with our infrastructure strategy helps us deliver consistent business solutions through a powerful, ultra-efficient data center." .
