Funny -- globus has been available on Linux/390 for months, as has the GT3 and OGSA toolkit. I seem to remember completing this port more than a few months ago and demoing it at Marist's Data Center of the Future conference September 19th of last year.
We've been building these things for at least 6 months now -- guess they finally caught up to the bleeding edge. Glad to see Platform finally saw the light. -- db David Boyes Sine Nomine Associates > -----Original Message----- > From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of > Ferguson, Neale > Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2003 2:32 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: CIN: IBM Moves Linux Mainframes to the Center of the Grid > > > See: "http://linuxtoday.com/high_performance/2003040301926NWHESS"; > > "With key middleware like the Globus toolkit now available for the > zSeries, the mainframe is taking center stage in grid computing. > > "Key software for grid computing has been ported to Linux on the > zSeries mainframe, according to an announcement this week from IBM and > Linux distributor SuSE, which supplies the version of Linux > most commonly > found on mainframes. > > "The software includes the popular open source Globus Toolkit and > programs from two commercial grid vendors, Toronto's Platform > Computing > and New York City-based DataSynapse..." >
