Ten years ago, in January 2000, an amazing thing happened. No, not Y2K. A penguin met a bear and they became fast friends. For, that was the month that the first full Linux image was released that would run on a mainframe. The story since then has been nothing short of amazing. Because, not only did Linux work well running on a mainframe, it worked really, really well. And, you could have lots and lots of them. So, while the penguins multiplied, the "bear", z/VM, also became more and more in demand. As it turned out, bears are really good at carrying lots and lots of penguins around. Now, a decade later, the partnership of Linux, z/VM and the System z is stronger than ever.
The Linux and VM Program invite you to a celebration of the first 10 years of this partnership.
