Effective June 2022, Skytap will change IBM i license prices for all regions. Currently, IBM i prices are based on vCPU usage. After the change, they will be based on the industry standard for Power computing: entitled capacity. Customers will still be able to license IBM i hourly or monthly.
These changes will enable Skytap on IBM customers to more accurately calculate IBM i license usage, including for fractional core usage.
You don’t need to take any action; in June 2022 your subscription will be automatically updated with the new pricing.
