Re: VoIP on iSeries

We had a presentation on this at LISUG last month. As someone w/both

I don't see ANY REASON you'd want to run your VoIP infrastructure off an
iSeries. Sorry, but I just don't see a reason (other than, because I
can).

Integrate w/VoIP, sure, like CallPath/400, but have the iSeries as the
core of your VoIP system, why?


because if the VoIP software costs $60K then it might make sense to
run it on the server that is easiest to manage.  $60K + $10K for the
700 CPW of i5 = $70K. Compared to $60K + $3K for an xSeries. Rousseaux
said you need a backup server to make sure your telephone system never
goes down, so two i5 systems at $15K each might be a bit much compared
to two xSeries at $3K each.
