  • Introducing Linux on IBM Z Systems IT Simplicity with an Enterprise Grade Linux Platform
    Introducing Linux on IBM z Systems IT simplicity with an enterprise grade Linux platform Wilhelm Mild IBM Executive IT Architect for Mobile, z Systems and Linux © 2016 IBM Corporation IBM Germany What is Linux? . Linux is an operating system – Operating systems are tools which enable computers to function as multi-user, multitasking, and multiprocessing servers. – Linux is typically delivered in a Distribution with many useful tools and Open Source components. Linux is hardware agnostic by design – Linux runs on multiple hardware architectures which means Linux skills are platform independent. Linux is modular and built to coexist with other operating systems – Businesses are using Linux today. More and more businesses proceed with an evolutionary solution strategy based on Linux. 2 © 2016 IBM Corporation What is IBM z Systems ? . IBM z Systems is the family name used by IBM for its mainframe computers – The z Systems families were named for their availability – z stands for zero downtime. The systems are built with spare components capable of hot failovers to ensure continuous operations. IBM z Systems paradigm – The IBM z Systems family maintains full backward compatibility. In effect, current systems are the direct, lineal descendants of System/360, built in 1964, and the System/370 from the 1970s. Many applications written for these systems can still run unmodified on the newest z Systems over five decades later. IBM z Systems variety of Operating Systems – There are different traditional Operating Systems that run on z Systems like z/OS, z/VSE or TPF. With z/VM IBM delivers a mature Hypervisor to virtualize the operating systems.

Ubuntu on Big Iron: ubuntu-on-big-iron.blogspot.de Canonical We are the company behind Ubuntu. Where is the name Ubuntu coming from? ubuntu |oǒ'boǒntoō| Ubuntu is an ancient African word meaning ‘humanity to others’. It also means ‘I am what I am because of who we all are’. The Ubuntu operating system brings the spirit of Ubuntu to the world of computers.
