Siemens Nixdorf Informationssysteme
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Siemens Nixdorf Informationssysteme, AG (SNI) was formed in the mid 1990s by the merger of Nixdorf Computer AG and the Siemens' Data Information Services (DIS) division. Functioning as a separate company within Siemens, SNI sold the BS2000 and SINIX operating systems, BS2000 mainframe computers, a number of databases, SNI RISC-based RM-x00 servers and a variety of other hardware and software products (everything from Personal Computers to SAP R/3). It was the largest IT company in Europe until, in the late 1990s, it was split into two: Fujitsu Siemens Computers and Wincor Nixdorf. The latter took over all banking and retail related business.
