Correction - s/chuck/chunk
I mean that in x86 you design so that the workload has parts, app server, db, web server etc. in order to spread the workload around. This is not really required on a mainframe as you can just run it all in the same instance (you do not have to nor do you really want to).
This is a very SIMPLE view. I am trying to point out that the HW/OS on a mainframe is design for a very different thing then how people today think of "cloud" design.
- bogomipz 7y agoThanks for clarifying. >"I am trying to point out that the HW/OS on a mainframe is design for a very different thing then how people today think of "cloud" design." Might you or anyone else have any resources you could share this design paradigm? Thanks.
- greglindahl 7y agoNot really, because it's the same paradigm that cluster software is designed for.
