AI & IT Automation for IBM Power
AI sysadmin toolkit, local LLM inference, document processing, Ansible automation and lifecycle management — natively compiled for IBM Power Systems on ppc64le and AIX.
Six tools. One Power platform.
From AI sysadmin commands to document intelligence and lifecycle management — open source tools compiled, optimized and certified for IBM Power Systems.
lpai
AI Sysadmin Toolkit
22 AI-powered commands for POWER administrators. Classify logs, diagnose incidents, decode error codes, audit compliance, translate legacy code (RPG, COBOL, JCL) — all locally, no data leaves your machine.
vLLM
CPU LLM Inference Server
OpenAI-compatible LLM inference on IBM Power. Pre-built ppc64le packages — no GPU, no CUDA, no source builds. POWER10/11 do the work with MMA acceleration. The recommended local backend for lpai.
Docling
Document AI for Power
AI-powered document processing running natively on IBM Power. Extract text, tables, images and structured data from PDFs, DOCX, PPTX and HTML. Integrated with LangChain, LlamaIndex and RAG pipelines.
Llama-AIX
LLM Inference on AIX
Run large language models locally on IBM Power and AIX. Based on llama.cpp, compiled for ppc64le with Power10 MMA optimizations. Deploy Llama, Granite, Mistral and GGUF models without cloud dependencies.
AWX
Ansible Automation for Power
Native Ansible AWX running on ppc64le without x86 emulation. Full automation platform for your IBM Power infrastructure — manage AIX, IBM i, Linux on Power, HMC and PowerVM from a single control plane.
Foreman-Katello
Lifecycle Management for Power
Complete server lifecycle management for IBM Power. Provisioning, patch management, content views and repository management for physical and virtual Power servers. Manage RHEL, SLES and Ubuntu on ppc64le from a single dashboard.
Open source AI on Power.
Without the consulting invoice.
Native Performance
Every tool compiled natively for ppc64le. No x86 emulation, no QEMU overhead, no cross-compilation issues. Pure Power performance with architecture-specific optimizations for Power10 MMA and VSX.
Air-Gapped Ready
Run LLM inference, document processing and automation entirely on-premise. No cloud dependencies, no data leaving your datacenter. Critical for regulated industries running on Power.
Community Driven
Built on GitLab with CI/CD on real Power hardware. Community contributions welcome. Free for open source projects, certified tiers available for enterprise ISVs.
From document to decision. On Power.
Combine these tools for complete enterprise AI automation workflows — all running natively on your existing IBM Power infrastructure.
vLLM serves the model → lpai uses it → Senior admin expertise on tap, fully air-gapped.
Docling extracts → Llama-AIX or vLLM infers → Enterprise answers from your own data.
Foreman-Katello manages → AWX orchestrates → Zero-downtime updates across Power fleet.
