Of course it could, but if you're looking to move it from Intel to the
mainframe, it might be better for the business to leave it right where it's
at.  I can set up a pretty beefy HA failover on 4-way Intel boxes for a lot
less money than that same application would chew up on S/390 hardware.  I am
primarily talking about the so-called "new workloads" that everyone is
pushing (and a lot of people here are complaining about) that treat RAM and
CPU as unlimited resources.  If you've got one of those workloads, and it
requires more than 1 mainframe CPU, I would be really, really hesitant to
try to run it on Linux/390.

Granted, but it could be mighty important to the business!
