The system administrator will also learn helpful hints and tips and develop fundamental troubleshooting skills.
Redbook

IBM Spectrum Computing solutions (formerly known as IBM Platform Computing solutions) deliver the power of managing, sharing, and optimizing resources for analytics, cloud, technical computing, and more in distributed computing environments.

These solutions use intelligent workload and policy-driven resource management to optimize resources throughout the data center, both on premises and in the cloud, and are faster, more flexible, and scalable to over 160,000 cores. IBM Spectrum Computing solutions use advances in software-defined infrastructure that can help you take advantage of the power of your distributed computing environment.

New IBM Redbooks content explores the IBM Spectrum Computing family of solutions and shows you the opportunities that these solutions can bring to your business.
