Linux on System z - A Strategic View.
Datacenters planning to adopt Linux have a key architectural choice to
make in designing large-scale implementations.
Is the best approach to running Linux scale-out with rack-optimized
servers, to scale-up with large SMP servers using virtualization
facilities to run many images on a single server?
For many users, Linux on IBM System z may be the optimal choice.
Jim will describe how Linux on System z, in combination with z/VM, will
provide a robust Linux environment which integrates well with z/OS, z/TPF
and z/VSE. (2.23MB)
Given at the
SHARE Summer 2008 conference in San Jose, CA in August, 2008.

Linux on System z - A Strategic View.
Datacenters today have a key architectural choice to make in
designing large-scale implementations. Is the best approach to
scale-out with rack-optimized servers or to scale up with large
SMP servers using virtualization facilities to run many images on
a single server? IBM System z is a "green" solution which for
many users will be the optimal choice. Jim will describe how
Linux on System z, in combination with z/VM, will provide a
robust and cost-effective Linux environment which integrates well
with z/OS, z/TPF and z/VSE as well as distributed platforms.
The presentation will also give an overview of Novell SLES and
Red Hat RHEL on System z.
