Writing Secure Code, Second Edition

IBM helped the automotive company consolidate its disparate systems onto two pSeries 690 machines running AIX and connected to an IBM FAStT500 Storage Server. "IBM Global Services Australia brought in a team of specialists to migrate our legacy systems—including our entire SAP implementation—to our new IBM platform," explains Scott. "From our perspective, it was virtually a turnkey solution that has provided us with full redundancy and 50-percent faster disaster recovery." Currently, Toyota Australia runs its production system on one pSeries Model 690, and its development and disaster recovery operations on a second, from a remote data center facility. Leveraging the logical partitioning (LPAR) function, Toyota Australia has constructed several fully redundant partitions between its two pSeries systems, thus enabling a level of security and cost-effective scalability unavailable on its previous platform.
