Alan, we moved our entire WebSphere (JAVA applications) environment from z/OS to z/Linux. Saved a bunch on liscensing, we already possed the distributed WAS liscenses. Nearly all of our our current java apps do little more than replace 3270 screens,(no heavy cpu intensive work) most of the data and computation is still preformed on z/OS. The data is passed via HiperSockets. It has worked wonderfully for us. Response times improved dramatically for our apps, primarily in avoiding WLM configuration 'stuff' . As such, new java application developement has largely been targeted to be deployed on zLinux.
