The following is a restored VHS promotional film from IBM's "System/390 Magazine" for 1995. Features IBM OS/390 mainframe operating system updates, IBM at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Nissan Auto R&D in Michigan, Dresdner Bank in Germany and Spain, and the IBM 3494 Tape Library at SmithMeter Company. Excellent color and sound, Un-edited version, runs about 35 minutes.
The IBM System/390 was announced in 1990 as the most current upgrade to the System/360 and System/370 family. Available in various sizes, the lowest cost models under $100,000, and the highest water-cooled giant systems in the $20 million dollar range. The Operating System "OS/390" was introduced in late 1995 to help fully utilize the MVS operating system package.
An additional benefit of the OS/390 packaging concept was to improve reliability, availability and serviceability (RAS) for the operating system. This "packaging" reduced the overall time required for customers to test and deploy the operating system in their environments. Film also mentions IBM's plans in the area of Enterprise Client-Server architectures.
In December 2001 IBM extended OS/390 to include support for 64-bit zSeries processors and added various other improvements, and the resulting OS was named z/OS. IBM ended support for the older OS/390-branded versions in 2004.
This film is part of the IBM "System/390 Magazine" series of news and updates from IBM.
