The z990, also known by its code name T-Rex, is a 64-bit mainframe computer from IBM® that contains up to 32 processors, together capable of executing approximately 9,000 million instructions per second (MIPS), nearly three times the processing power of IBM’s z900. The z990 is not only faster but comes with four times as much memory and twice as many I/O channels as the z900 and other z/OS hardware.
To serve varying “on demand” situations, the z990 directs processor resources to the highest priority tasks and also minimizes problems that occur when addressable memory becomes insufficient. It also allows dynamic flexible partitioning and resource management under mixed or unpredictable workloads. The z990 supports up to 30 logical partitions. High-speed interconnects make it possible for Internet traffic to move between partitions and virtual servers at memory speed on z/OS hardware.
