In fact, while IBM says it will continue to integrate the two products, the products will remain separate. The integration, it said, would only add to the servers' functionality.

IBM will still retain an interest in i2, but while the alliance between the three companies was initially successful, analysts have said the union was strained by Ariba's attempted acquisition of Agile software. That deal fell through earlier this year.
