Symantec has entered a deal with IBM, in which Symantec will provide storage management and backup products for Linux on IBM's POWER platform.
Also, IBM will resell Symantec's Veritas Cluster Server and Veritas Storage Foundation with IBM System p servers for AIX and Linux on POWER in the U.S. and Japan.
Symantec will port Veritas products to the Linux on POWER platform. Symantec says:
These solutions will help clients consolidate Linux applications on the IBM System p platform, leveraging the benefits of IBM's leading System p hardware platform and Symantec's leading data center infrastructure software.
The announcement is another example of Symantec's commitment to support all major UNIX, Linux and Windows platforms in the data center, enabling customers to standardize on a consistent software infrastructure across heterogeneous environments.
The Symantec products will become available for Linux on POWER by the end of the year.
