Secure, high-performance server with scalable computing and built-in AI for modern data workloads
Overview
Built for Business-Critical Workloads
The IBM® Power® S1014 is the entry level server of the IBM Power portfolio. The S1014 supports up to 8 Power10 processor cores and up to 1 TB memory, and is designed to run AIX®, IBM i and Linux®. It is available in a 4U or tower chassis.
Features
Performance, speed and AI built in
Deliver up to 20% more memory bandwidth compared to IBM Power S914, enabling faster data access and improved application responsiveness. This boost supports data-intensive workloads and helps ensure consistent performance across complex, high-demand environments.1
Leverage four Matrix Math Accelerators per core to speed up AI inferencing at the point of data. This built-in capability enables faster insights without added hardware, improving decision-making and supporting modern AI-driven workloads with greater efficiency.
Use cases
Flexible workloads for data, apps and AI
Support diverse business needs by running databases, core applications, and AI workloads on a single platform. Improve efficiency through workload consolidation, reduce costs, and accelerate insights by keeping data and processing closely aligned across critical operations.
Consolidate Oracle workloads onto fewer servers and cores to reduce licensing costs. Help database teams improve utilization, simplify infrastructure, and maintain strong performance for critical workloads.
Enable teams to run essential applications on IBM i with flexible resource usage. Support reliable operations, simplify management, and control costs while scaling to meet evolving business demands.
Help data teams build and run AI inferencing models directly where data resides. Reduce latency, avoid data movement, and deliver faster insights for real-time decision-making and analytics.
Software
