Oracle is NOT supporting them well on zLinux. So... there's both the
financial and technical reason.
Why would anyone stay with a platform that is not well supported? Oracle
couldn't handle it, so they are moving.
Now... certainly the false mindset issue surrounding mainframes is an
issue...

Considering Oracle is extremely virtual friendly where DB2 is completely
virtual hostile (polling at 200,000 times a second was for High

I suspect, I'm unfortunately not a fly on the wall, that Oracle simply wants to
sell their newly acquired hardware 'division', Sun. But that is only
speculation. This almost looks like a strong shove away from the hardware they
can't handle, apparently.

Apparently someone's reality is some other alternate universe. The real
issue, not being a technical one,

We have moved a 7TB Oracle data base from Solaris to z/Linux along with the
