IBM offers education on a variety of z/VM, Linux on System z
and z/VSE topics in the form of 'Live Virtual Classes' (LVC).
In a LVC, you can see the charts and listen to the speaker 'live'.
In addition, you are able (and are encouraged) to ask questions of the
speaker during a Q&A session following the prepared presentation.
You do not have to pre-register to attend the webcast, but you will
need to enter your email to join the call.
Each LVC lasts approximately one hour, including Q&A.
Please check the z/VM events calendar to learn of future LVCs.
The day following each LVC, the charts will be posted here in PDF format.
With the replay, you are able to read the charts and hear the
recording and the Q's and A's.
You are welcome to read the charts or listen to the playbacks
when you can't participate 'live' or even if you wish to hear it
all again.

Abstract:
On August 1, 2007 IBM announced that its Project Big Green would spur
a global shift to Linux on the mainframe. Further, IBM claimed to “
double computing capacity with no increase in consumption or impact
by 2010.” And, as if that were not ambitious enough, IBM also announced
that it would consolidate 3,900 of its own distributed servers to
33 mainframe computers in 3 years. Listen to how IBM's efforts will
save 80% on energy consumption, while realizing
significant savings in labor and software costs. Bill will highlight
our journey to date as well as the solutions that we
have used or developed to realize success thus far, with more to come.
