IBM Selects Electronic Business Solutions as IBM BladeCenter Solaris Integrator


EBS and IBM announce relationship to support the sale of IBM BladeCenter servers running Sun Solaris

NORTH BILLERICA, Mass., Sept. 7 //-- Electronic Business Solutions (EBS), a full service systems integrator, and IBM Business Partner, Sun Microsystems Solaris OEM and system integrator, has been appointed by IBM to sell and support IBM System x and BladeCenter servers running the Solaris operating system.

EBS is an industry expert in integrating Solaris to non-Sun Microsystems hardware and is the only company authorized by Sun to support legacy versions of Solaris.

"EBS has been one of the pioneers of Solaris x86 since SUN re-introduced Solaris x86 to the market in early 2000," said Fran Oh, CEO of EBS. "This has been possible because of our relationships with Sun's Solaris group and IBM BladeCenter. We will be one of the first integrators to be able to offer the SUN OS and IBM platforms for clients to take full advantage of today's latest and the greatest technology."

"Clients are looking for the flexibility of choice, and EBS is able to offer options when it comes to the hardware platforms on which they run Solaris," said Juhi Jotwani, director of IBM BladeCenter Solutions and Alliances. "With EBS, customers will be able to keep their current software while moving to a less expensive and more scalable hardware platform with IBM BladeCenter."

"Our clients in the medical, financial, manufacturing and life sciences disciplines have been asking for additional hardware platform choices for years and now we are able to provide just that and integrate their mission critical software with IBM BladeCenter servers," said Eric Herbert, Director of EBS.

EBS offers a myriad of services around Solaris including software porting, migration from and to Solaris and Linux, hardware and software customization, integration and various support agreements.
