Greetings Community!
We're seeing an increased interest in our mainframe user community for zSeries zIIP, zAAP, and IFL specialty processor engines. The promise of these engines is that they help you take better advantage of what you already have, increasing the throughput of a machine by offloading capacity from the main CPU.
The growing importance of these engines is a clear indicator of the growing importance of Linux and Java environments on the mainframe.
Have you implemented these specialty processor enginers, and if so, are they paying the dividends you had expected? What are some of the challenges are you facing?
