The company also recently entered into a new expanded arrangement with Arrow ECS to provide all Arrow hardware resellers with capacity planning and sales support for IBM Power Systems servers.

Midrange Performance Group (MPG) has announced that its unaudited financial results for the first seven months of 2010 reflect improved results despite the lingering U.S. recession. Product revenue of MPG's flagship products, Performance Navigator and Power Navigator were up 14.3 percent as of July 31st on a year over year basis, the company reported. 

This trend mirrors IBM's resounding success in the enterprise server space with POWER6 and POWER7 servers. While IBM servers are licensed with the bulk of MPG's software installations, Power Navigator is gaining market share in the Oracle/Sun and HP UNIX server markets, providing cross-brand capacity planning and modeling capabilities for servers from all three major manufacturers, a unique capability in the UNIX space.

MPG recently entered into a new, expanded arrangement with Arrow ECS, a long-term client for MPG's technology and services, to provide all of Arrow hardware resellers with capacity planning and sales support for IBM Power Systems servers, particularly in engagements requiring server consolidation, in the IBM i, AIX/Linux, and competitive Unix markets.  MPG’s SaaS capacity planning offerings were used in over 3,000 engagements by Business Partners and IBMers in 2009 worldwide and are on track to equal or top that figure in 2010 given IBM’s refresh to the Power Systems server product line.

In light of IBM's much anticipated announcement of additional POWER7 servers, MPG has readied both Performance Navigator and Power Navigator for new models, supporting MPG’s Business Partners’ sales campaigns.
