IBM LinuxONE Systems Virtualization Options
IBM LinuxONE Systems now
has three strategic virtualization platforms
1. IBM Dynamic Partition Manager (DPM) or Processor
Resource /System Manager (PR/SM)
2. KVM
3. IBM z/VM

KVM provides an open source choice for IBM LinuxONE Systems

KVM virtualization for Linux workloads. Best for clients that are not
familiar with z/VM and are Linux centric admins.

IBM Proprietary Server Virtualization that is completely integrated into the

z/VM full stack. Complete hardware awareness. Supported on IBM LinuxONE
Systems. z/VM will continue to be enhanced to support Linux Workloads.

DPM Divide one physical LinuxONE System into up to 85 logical partitions (LPAR)
running isolated and secured in parallel. Share resources across LPARs or
or dedicated to a particular LPAR. Control the LPAR virtualization via the new
PR/SM Dynamic Partition Manager (DPM) or with PR/SM.

https://www-03.ibm.com/press/us/en/pressrelease/48827.wss

Open standards-based NoSQL database-as-a-service provides guaranteed

performance, reliability, scalability, and availability for next-generation Web,
Mobile, and Internet of Things solutions

Key Mobile Benefits:

• Improves mobile performance by moving data
closer to the network and onto devices
• Consistent API to move data seamlessly between
networks, platforms, and
mobile devices
• Intelligent geo-load balancing across SoftLayer
data centers (worldwide)
 Containers in Linux

linuxcontainers.org is the the project behind Linux Containers (LXC),

Linux Container ‘hypervisor’ (LXD), Linux Container FileSystem (LXCFS)
and Linux cgroup deamon (CGManager).
• The goal is to offer a distro and vendor neutral environment for the
development of Linux container technologies.
• The main focus is system containers. This is achieved through a
combination of kernel security features such as namespaces,
mandatory access control and control groups.
Container characteristics:

 Isolated application environments within a Linux OS instance

 Each container has its own, different address space but same kernel

 Serve a single task

 Self contained set of files for applications

 Startup time and efficiency compare to native execution

Docker in Linux on z Systems
Docker is one implementation of Linux containers and their management

• Open, portable, light-weight run-time and packaging tool

• Container in standard operating environment and delivery vehicle for
applications with wildly different requirements
• Much faster to spin-up and efficient to run than a VM
• Isolated from each other
• Easily build and ship complex application, without worrying about infrastructure
differences or interference from other software stacks
• Quickly and reliably deploy and run applications on any infrastructure
• Docker Hub: share container building blocks and automate workflows
• Essential for horizontally scaling apps on the cloud

Terminology:
 Image: set of self contained files. Read-only.
 Container: a running instance, based on an image.
Docker Swarm: for cluster management of Docker hosts (placement, scheduling,.. )
Docker Compose: used to create multi-container applications

Application flexibility with Docker on Linux on z Systems

• Docker containers enable

application virtualization and
enable more apps in one system.
• With containers, a user could run
now with its memory efficiency,
hundreds of the same instance, as

Analytics with Apache SPARK
http://hadoop.apache.org/
IBM Announces Major Commitment to Apache® Spark™

https://www-03.ibm.com/press/us/en/pressrelease/47107.wss
• At the core of this commitment, IBM plans to embed Spark into its industry-leading
Analytics and Commerce platforms, and to offer Spark as a service on IBM Cloud.

www.smartercomputingblog.com/system-z/ibm-spark-mainframe/

• Apache® Spark™ is an open-source computing framework with in-memory processing

to speed analytic applications up to 100 times faster compared to technologies on the
market today and enhance mission-critical applications with deep intelligence.
• The impact is being compared to that of Linux, Spark being a common framework for
analytics just as Linux has been a common framework for computing.
• Linux and the mainframe have been a perfect match, and so it will be with
Spark – for both z/OS and Linux on z Systems.
Apache Spark – compute APIs for analytics

(machine
learning)

Spark, was developed at U.C. Berkeley's AMPLab in 2009, and contributed to

Apache in 2010. Spark is best known for in-memory machine learning through its
MLlib component, but it also supports graph, SQL, and streaming analysis with
GraphX, Spark SQL, and Spark Streaming, respectively. In the works is SparkR for
statistical analysis using the popular R language.

Notes:
Performance is in Internal Throughput Rate (ITR) ratio based on measurements and projections using standard IBM benchmarks in a controlled environment. The actual throughput that any user will experience will vary depending
upon considerations such as the amount of multiprogramming in the user's job stream, the I/O configuration, the storage configuration, and the workload processed. Therefore, no assurance can be given that an individual user will
achieve throughput improvements equivalent to the performance ratios stated here.
IBM hardware products are manufactured from new parts, or new and serviceable used parts. Regardless, our warranty terms apply.
All customer examples cited or described in this presentation are presented as illustrations of the manner in which some customers have used IBM products and the results they may have achieved. Actual environmental costs and
performance characteristics will vary depending on individual customer configurations and conditions.
This publication was produced in the United States. IBM may not offer the products, services or features discussed in this document in other countries, and the information may be subject to change without notice. Consult your local
IBM business contact for information on the product or services available in your area.
All statements regarding IBM's future direction and intent are subject to change or withdrawal without notice, and represent goals and objectives only.
Information about non-IBM products is obtained from the manufacturers of those products or their published announcements. IBM has not tested those products and cannot confirm the performance, compatibility, or any other
claims related to non-IBM products. Questions on the capabilities of non-IBM products should be addressed to the suppliers of those products.

This information provides only general descriptions of the types and portions of workloads that are eligible for execution on Specialty Engines (e.g, zIIPs, zAAPs, and IFLs) ("SEs"). IBM authorizes customers to use IBM SE only to
execute the processing of Eligible Workloads of specific Programs expressly authorized by IBM as specified in the “Authorized Use Table for IBM Machines” provided at
www.ibm.com/systems/support/machine_warranties/machine_code/aut.html (“AUT”). No other workload processing is authorized for execution on an SE. IBM offers SE at a lower price than General Processors/Central Processors
because customers are authorized to use SEs only to process certain types and/or amounts of workloads as specified by IBM in the AUT.
