The System z9 Integrated Information Processor (zIIP) is a specialty engine that will run eligible database workloads and is designed to help free-up general computing capacity and lower software costs for select workloads such as business intelligence (BI), ERP and CRM on the mainframe.

The zIIP will be priced at $125,000 in the United States, consistent with the zAAP and IFL engines.

The new system represents a three-year, $1.2-billion development effort encompassing 5,000 IBM engineers, software developers and security experts from around the world.
