IBM develops dual-architecture Arm chip for IBM Z and LinuxONE
IBM is working with Arm to develop a dual-architecture processor for IBM Z mainframes and LinuxONE systems. The chip is designed to run z/OS and Arm-native Linux workloads simultaneously on the same core. The chip has not been named. It uses a unified architecture aimed at eliminating the need to split work between Arm and IBM cores. It is built on a 2-nanometre process and includes 11 5.7-gigahertz cores.
