1. What is systems management?
2. Getting started with emerging systems management technology

alphaWorks provides emerging systems management technologies from IBM Research and development labs. Along with the technology downloads, there are demos, discussion forums, and resources that allow you to interact with creators of the technology and the broader user community.

1. What is systems management?

Systems management technologies focus on systems administration, performance, and utilities, including network and desktop applications as well as tools for Web site and enterprise knowledge management.

2. Getting started with emerging systems management technology

alphaWorks systems management technologies are available in the following categories:
  • Administration – These tools are for administration of software, hardware, and/or data stores.
  • Performance – These applications perform consistently across a wide range of operating systems, browsers, tools, and applications.
  • Utilities – These small, useful tools assist IT managers.
  • Configuration – Tools for change and configuration management
  • Automation – Event management automation technologies

Get started with these systems management technologies:

  • IBM Page Detailer is a graphical tool that enables Web site developers and editors to rapidly and accurately assess performance from the client's perspective.

  • FairUCE (which stands for "Fair use of Unsolicited Commercial Email") is a spam filter that stops spam by verifying sender identity instead of filtering content.

  • Command Line Bot - A tool that enables access to distributed UNIX systems and services from a simple messenger.

  • Browse through the Systems Management technologies or search for a system management topic to find a technology of interest to you. You can also join the discussion about any alphaWorks technology to learn more. And let us know what you think; your feedback is important to us is shaping the alphaWorks site and what we bring you.
