As organisations move from AI experimentation to real-world deployment, infrastructure choices become critical to achieving performance, reliability, and scalability. This presentation explores how IBM Power enables enterprises to bring AI into production with confidence. We will discuss how IBM Power’s architecture supports demanding AI workloads through high-performance compute, seamless accelerator integration, and enterprise-grade reliability and security. Attendees will gain practical insights into deploying, scaling, and operating AI workloads on IBM Power, including real-world use cases and best practices for bridging the gap between proof of concept and production-ready AI.
This session explores how IBM PowerSC and IBM Power CyberVault work together to strengthen security and cyber-resilience on IBM Power systems. Learn how PowerSC enhances security and compliance while CyberVault provides isolated, validated recovery from ransomware and destructive attacks.
In many Power System environments, the Virtual I/O Server (VIOS) plays a vital role in providingdifferent criticial resources for the various partitions that are running under PowerVM. The default configurationof the VIOS environment provides basic security with just a single user padmin to manage the VIOSservers. This setting does not provide sufficient auditing controls nor does it implementthe principle of least privilege. The padmin user is equivalent to root on AIX and Linux orQSECOFR on IBM i. Nobody should grant these administrative rights to every user. Join this session to learn about the different security mechanisms that are available in the VIOSserver for authentication, user management, providing user role-based access, or implement best practices auditing and logging.
