Our Team Invented the Virtual Server Farm
Sine Nomine Associates introduced the concept of the virtual server farm using Linux on the S/390 IBM mainframe. Since then, our team has “not looked back,” developing applications for cloning Linux images, refining procedures for large-scale implementations, and sharing our knowledge at trade shows, at conferences, and in professional magazines.

Our work has led to major implementations of this architecture, consolidating functions such as file serving, print serving and mail administration onto more efficient platforms.

Sine Nomine Associates has the right people, with proven experience, to handle all of your development and implementation needs for Linux on the System z. Our solutions represent the standard of quality and service that are hallmarks of a well-planned architecture and implementation. The results are robust Linux solutions that are expandable, scalable, reliable and usable. We provide service solutions that will please the CTO at prices that will make even the CFO smile.

Benefits of Linux on the System z

• Reduced hardware costs due to fewer total servers
• Lower licensing costs with the minimization of proprietary operating systems.
• Security is fundamental to the architecture of System z and Linux
• Efficient implementation by the company that knows Linux on the System z implementation best
• Centralized management of computer resources with proven tools
• More productive technical staff with each technician able to support a larger pool of employees
