The OpenPOWER Foundation
The goal of the OpenPOWER Foundation is to create an open ecosystem, using the POWER Architecture to share expertise, investment, and
server-class intellectual property to serve the evolving needs of customers.
- Opening the architecture to give the industry the ability to innovate across the full hardware and software stack
• Simplify system design with alternative architecture• Includes SOC design, Bus Specifications, Reference Designs, FW OS and Hypervisor
Open Source• Little Endian Linux to ease the migration of software to POWER
- Driving an expansion of enterprise-class hardware and software stack for the data center
- Building a complete ecosystem to provide customers with the flexibility to build servers best suited to the Power architecture

•IBM is finalizing plans for a POWER8-based offering for low-core application and clients requirements with POWER8 technology benefits
– Follow-on to the existing 720 4-core offering. Gives clients an IBM i P05 software tier to provide more competitive TCA pricing than POWER8 6-core.
– Using 3GHz cores (like the 6-core S814)
– Like the POWER7 4-core offering – no feature code I/O drawers like #5887 and no future PCIe expansion drawer. (Fibre Channel attached drawers/SANs supported.)
– Like the POWER7 4-core -- Lower memory maximum than 6-core -- ?? 64GB ??
– TBD max of SFF-3 drives in system unit: ??8?? ??10?? ??12?? ??18?? •POWER7 4-core max was eight
– Power S814 6-core and 8-core systems will provide an IBM i P10 software tier offering with even higher value than previous systems
•Currently Plan to Announce mid July 2004* and GA Sept 2014** IBM plans are subject to change or cancellation without notice.
Nothing in April annc letters on this topic – This is not formally announced. Information shared for your sales planning purposes. Subject to change

–IBM plans to introduce an I/O drawer which will expand the number of PCIe Gen3/Gen2 slots available on POWER8 processor-based Power Systems.
–IBM plans to enable Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI) technology capabilities for all POWER8 processor-based Power Systems using industry standard accelerator technologies as a priced feature. IBM intends to build solutions with its partners in order to further increase performance through faster computational efficiency and by requiring fewer resources to accomplish tasks through direct integration of workload accelerator(s) in the system.
–IBM plans to introduce a business insight solution to provide IBM customers with a fully integrated solution for structured and unstructured data analytics using the Power S822L running Linux, a GPFS Storage Server using Power servers, select IBM Platform Computing software and field-programmable gate array (FPGA) compression.

Security - Separation of DutiesBefore 7.2
Problem: Anyone who has the authority to grant privileges also has the authority to perform operations that require those privileges.
IBM i 7.2 with RCAC
• Enable the management of security, without exposing the data to be read or modified.
• A user with security administration function usage (QIBM_DB_SECADM) will be able to grant or revoke privileges on any object to anyone, even if they do not have the SELECT privilege.
Should the security administrator be able to access the data within tables?
© 2014 IBM Corporation50
What is RCAC?
• Additional layer of data security available with DB2
• Complementary to table level security
• Subsetting access to only the required data for a task
• Controls access to a table at the row, column, or both
• Two sets of rules– Permissions for rows– Masks for columns
