Ron Noble, Director of CIBER's Unisys Technologies Group : 11 September 2009 / 10:02 AM : 0

CIBER’s Unisys Technologies Group would like to start a dialogue with companies who are either planning (or who have already committed) to transition their mission-critical, back-end, “scale-up” workloads from proprietary RISC-based platforms to more cost-effective high-end, “big iron” industry-standard servers. If your company fits this profile, we would appreciate an opportunity to speak with you and your team.
For illustrative purposes, it might be helpful to expand upon a few concepts mentioned above:
