IBM Attracts New Developers To ISeries: Page 2 of 2

To date, IBM has worked with more than 1,600 software providers to see what was needed to move their applications to the iSeries, and nearly 300 have requested a free detailed analysis to help them develop a plan to port their applications to iSeries servers. An additional 16 new Linux software vendors are now supporting the iSeries, more than 1,100 software developers have enrolled in IBM PartnerWorld Industry Networks, and about 150 new co-marketing agreements have been signed.

The Tools Innovation Program now includes 78 tools partners, and 126 products have been enhanced, Bingaman says.

IBM also will host industry workshops over the coming year, starting with a two-day event targeted at the wholesale industry scheduled July 12-13 in Rochester, Minn. Other industry-specific events will be held in locations around the world, Bingaman says.
