Linux mainframes beat PC servers on energy efficiency
,----[ Quote ]
| IBM has seen growth in demand for mainframe applications. ""We are not seeing
| much interest in Europe, but we are getting new customers in China and India
| for the z-series." Douglas Nielson, a systems analyst at IBM, says Linux on
| the mainframe is quite mature. "Linux is a big driver for mainframe growth.
| 20% of new mainframe capacity is for Linux workloads." He says many
| businesses already have the IFL processor to allow them to run Linux.
