Introduction to AIX

AIX is a UNIX operating system developed by IBM. Complying with the Open Group UNIX 98 Base Brand, AIX supports the concurrent running of 32-bit and 64-bit applications and flexible application expansion. AIX can run on IBM P series and IBM RS/6000 workstations, servers, and large-scale parallel supercomputers.

Currently, AIX5.2, AIX5.3, AIX6.1, AIX7.1, and AIX7.2 are available. Each basic AIX version has its patches subsequently released. For details about AIX version releases, visit:

AIX boasts virtual services, high operating efficiency, thorough cluster management, robust reliability, and ensured security. AIX is mainly used to run large-scale database systems such as Oracle, Sybase, and DB2.

AIX systems work with Huawei storage systems to serve for major banks, telecom carriers, and multinational enterprises that have strict requirements for data security and stability.
