Availability
The QNX Platform Core Source Kit is licensed per project, and will be
available in March 2005. That is, the z890 system architecture
is designed to prevent the flow of information among logical partitions on
a single system.

"The thousands of financial services and healthcare customers who currently
trust their critical business transactions to the IBM mainframe will
benefit most from the privacy certification afforded to z890, as well as
government agencies who deal with national security issues ," said Jim
Porell, IBM eServer zSeries Distinguished Engineer.

Operating systems (OSs) do many things: it is the block of software that runs in the memory of a computer which mediates between the hardware below and application(s) above; provides consistent access to various hardware for user programs such as applications and utilities; multiplexes hardware resources between two or more processes, programs, users; provides some common services to all software via an application programming (or protocol) interface (API); allocates memory and storage; schedules tasks.
