It&amp;#x27;s a push to have good software support for the IBM LinuxONE machine [2], essentially an IBM z Systems (z13) mainframe that will only run Linux on KVM (i.e. without expensive z&amp;#x2F;OS or z&amp;#x2F;VM &amp;#x27;legacy&amp;#x27;).&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m not sure about the costs, but it might make for a compelling platform as a &amp;#x27;private cloud&amp;#x27; solution. A single mainframe is a lot easier to maintain than racks full of x86 boxes. Apparently one LinuxONE Emperor machine can run up to 8,000 Linux VMs [3] (not sure with what load).&lt;p&gt;[1] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;linux-on-ibm-z&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;linux-on-ibm-z&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;[2] &lt;a href=&quot;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www-03.ibm.com&amp;#x2F;systems&amp;#x2F;z&amp;#x2F;os&amp;#x2F;linux&amp;#x2F;linux-one.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www-03.ibm.com&amp;#x2F;systems&amp;#x2F;z&amp;#x2F;os&amp;#x2F;linux&amp;#x2F;linux-one.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;[3] &lt;a href=&quot;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.zdnet.com&amp;#x2F;article&amp;#x2F;linuxone-ibms-new-linux-mainframes&amp;#x2F;&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.zdnet.com&amp;#x2F;article&amp;#x2F;linuxone-ibms-new-linux-mainfra...&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>IBM ported Go to s390x mainframes</title><url>https://github.com/linux-on-ibm-z/go</url></story>
