Microsoft Invests In IBM Mainframe Nemesis | |

In a move that's possibly contributing to large amounts of broken furniture in IBM executive offices around the country, Sunnyvale, Calif.-based mainframe vendor Platform Solutions this week revealed that Microsoft is one of the participants in the startup's latest round of venture capital funding. PSI, which plans to use its Series C round of $37 million to expand its engineering, marketing, and sales efforts, will also enter a joint sales agreement with Microsoft to sing the praises of Windows Server to enterprises with heterogeneous mainframe and server environments. Founded in 2003 as a spinoff of mainframe maker Amdahl, PSI carved out a name for itself in the mainframe market by touting the fact that its Intel Itanium-based Open Mainframe servers can run IBM's z/OS mainframe operating system as well as Linux, Unix, and Windows, making it a perfect fit for data centers. | ||
