OSU-OSC. <br>
Many of us are interested in virtualization. The "VM and Linux
Workshop" is all about that. <br>
<br>
The conference is centered around z/VM. I have a personal agenda
to make it more general (especially since KVM now runs on "System
z"). But z/VM remains the leader in terms of performance,
controls, and reliability. (Insertion loss with z/VM is under 5%
compared to native, which is unheard of for other "full
virtualization", normally only seen in para-virt and containers.)
It's good stuff to know about whether you're a student or
"seasoned" professional. <br>
<br>
Mainframe hardware is better known for running z/OS (popularly
called MVS), the stereotypical green-screen and batch system.
While MVS is incredibly powerful for heavy lifting business
operations, the hardware supports other operating systems,
including Linux and other Unix. This workshop is a gathering of
people using virtualization and Linux on that hardware. <br>
<br>
Also, my employer will be hosting a performance seminar two days
prior. Attendance to the seminar is free for people attending the
latter workshop. <br>
