Mainframes have been around for 60 years, yet the latest generation still offers advantages over other high-end computer platforms for many applications - now including data centre processing. This paper discusses the new mainframe released by IBM, the z10 which houses 64 processors. The paper also talks about the advantages of using mainframes in terms of power efficiency.
