IBM is introducing two Linux mainframe servers \u2013 called LinuxONE \u2013 which it claims are the industry\u2019s most powerful and secure enterprise servers.<\/p>\n
IBM said its LinuxONE Emperor, based on the IBM z13, is the world\u2019s most advanced Linux system with the fastest processor in the industry.<\/p>\n
The system is capable of analysing transactions in \u201creal time\u201d and can be used to prevent fraud as it is occurring.<\/p>\n
The system can scale up to 8,000 virtual machines or hundreds of thousands of containers \u2013 currently the most of any single Linux system.<\/p>\n
LinuxONE Rockhopper, an entry into the portfolio, is designed for clients and emerging markets seeking the speed, security, and availability of the mainframe, but in a smaller package.<\/p>\n
IBM said its LinuxONE systems are the most secure Linux systems, with advanced encryption features built into both the hardware and software.<\/p>\n
Protected-key, available on LinuxONE, provides enhanced security over clear-key technology and offers up to 28x improved performance over standard secure-key technology.<\/p>\n
IBM will also enable open source and industry tools and software including Apache Spark, Node.js, MongoDB, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Chef, and Docker on z Systems.<\/p>\n
Apache Spark is an open-source cluster computing framework with in-memory processing to speed analytic applications up to 100 times faster compared to technologies on the market today.<\/p>\n
