IBM ServerProven is a program for software developers who want to provide their customers with complete, reliable business solutions. ServerProven membership requires developers to test their software on IBM servers preloaded with non-IBM hardware devices, operating systems and middleware such as databases and systems management software and popular applications. Once the software is installed, tested and validated to perform smoothly, developers can market their solution as IBM ServerProven and can participate in ServerProven Plus offerings that focus on solution optimisation, maximum performance and high availability.
"ServerProven membership gives customers the confidence of getting a solution that`s easy to install, ready to run and built to perform optimally," says Bray.
