The zEnterprise 196 is the latest IBM System zSeries mainframe computer, which builds on IBM's 46-year heritage of compatible enterprise-class machines. This design advances the prior z10 processor pipeline with out-of-order execution to achieve considerable performance gains in legacy online transaction processing and computationally intensive workloads. This article describes the system structure and details of this new high-frequency microprocessor.
