Signature Users can cut application run and response times by as much as 50% by applying the latest IBM Storage offerings. Hear about an example Signature User’s experience and benefits with IBM Flash. Also, hear about IBM’s direction with the IBMi processor and answer questions you may have in upgrading your IT infrastructure. Current data growth, analytics, and real-time access needs have changed the storage landscape for our clients, particularly in banking. IBM’s multi-billion dollar investments in storage are making a significant impact on the speed, efficiency, and management of these needs. Offerings such as all-flash systems and software defined storage have especially become attractive to our banking clients who are both accelerating the speed of existing applications, such as core banking – or, creating new applications demanding real-time access, such as cybersecurity and cognitive in payments. Learn how others in the Financial Services industry are addressing core banking, payments, and risk & compliance applications using IBM Storage offerings. In addition to Signature, other core banking examples applying flash storage within Fiserv include: Premier, Precision, and XP2. Many of the same business benefits experienced within the banking industry could apply to you and your clients. Learn how you can easily implement these proven capabilities with your Signature application now.

Why Flash Matters to Financial Services
In the last 10 years:
DRAM Speed 7 to 9x Increase
Network Speed 100x Increase
Bus Speed 20x Increase
Disk Speed ONLY 1.2x Increase
CPU Speed 8 to 10x Increase
Flash has 50x lower latency than
hard disk drives
Without Flash With Flash (better than SSD)

(Flash is better than SSD)

16. IBM Systems
ESG - on Flash Economics
“- - the IBM FlashSystem enterprise storage offering
represents a tipping point for many use cases where
flash not only offers significant performance
improvements, but also significantly drives down the total
cost of ownership for storage based on a smaller, more
cost-efficient footprint.”

23. Getting Started with Fiserv Applications – IBM Storage
• IBM Briefing –
• Review and demo based upon your needs
• Discuss resources and information available
• Contact – your Fiserv Representative and/or Fiserv Software
Development/Test team
• Ask – your Fiserv Team for a joint meeting with IBM Flash & Storage
Technical Guidance – to:
• Determine fit & specific benefits for your institution
• Conduct a FLiP Analysis – Flash performance impact with IBMi
• Leverage the Fiserv sales & fulfillment process (currently using
AVNET in North America)
• Plan for installation

24. Show the estimated performance
gains based on actual data
• No charge to the customer
• Uses performance data that
most customers are already
gathering
• Leverages:
• IBM FlashSystem
Solutions Engineering
• IBM i Lab Services
• IBM Flash Centers of
Competency
Why request a FLiP analysis?

25. IBM Systems
IBM FlashSystem and IBMi Performance Evaluation
1.Conduct a kick-off planning call to review workload characteristics of current environment and
review performance data collection requirements
2.Conduct an assessment of the IBM i workload to determine if IBM FlashSystem will provide
the expected performance gains
• Client approves Authorization to Provide Services (APS) letter via email to being
assessment
• IBM i Lab Services reviews collection services data with iDoctor and FLiP tools to
determine the following:
• Verify the current I/O response issues are due to storage architecture limitations, and not tuning or
configuration problems
• Verify the read/write I/O rates are best suited for IBM FlashSystem
• Verify business critical jobs are not driving write intensive workloads
• Review the workload to ensure they will scale with a Flash solution
• Conduct memory analysis to determine memory bottlenecks and tuning opportunities
• Project run time changes for business critical jobs
