The severs include LinuxONE Emperor for large enterprises and Rockhopper for mid-size businesses.
IBM said LinuxONE Emperor can scale up
to 8,000 virtual machines or thousands of containers, which would be the
most for any single Linux system.
The Linux One Emperor system will be
based on IBM’s z13 mainframe computer, which had been designed for
high-volume mobile transactions.
IBM said the LinuxOne system will work with open software such as Apache Spark, MariaDB, PostgreSQL and Chef.
The company also said it partnered with
UK-based Canonical Ltd to distribute its Ubuntu open source software on
LinuxONE and z systems.
