HiperSockets

An IBM System z mainframe facility that moves data very quickly across multiple server images. It creates the appearance of up to four TCP/IP networks, each independently tunable, within the central processing complex (CPC).

Supported transport links between systems include TCP/IP communications networks, CTC connections between z/OS Mainframes, HiperSockets and Alebra's exclusive z/OpenGate (A high-speed FICON and FCP gateway between an IBM z/OS Mainframe and Windows, Linux and UNIX Systems).

Alebra Offers Powerful and Affordable Alternative to EMC's InfoMover

In addition to supporting both conventional TCP/IP communications networks and IBM's Hipersockets between z/OS and Linux on an IFL, Alebra's PDM also supports its high-speed and highly efficient z/OpenGate transport.

Our tests demonstrate that Alebra's new PDM Release 5 in conjunction with the z/OpenGate transport results in a 96% reduction in the CPU resources required by conventional communication networks or Hipersockets," said Bill Yeager, Alebra's chief technology officer.
