The "specialized processor" is a different microcode for the same CPU. My understanding is that this microcode has disabled a few instruction so z/OS won't run but doesn't really do anything special for Java like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazelle The point is that Java or Linux workloads could be run on some other CPU and face competition but this is not the case for z/OS. Thus there is a reason to lower the price for workloads that could be easily migrated but keep it high for captives. |
