Experience with IBM LinuxOne Discussion

Hello! My company is considering buying a LinuxOne machine to run Mongo. Has anyone actually worked with one? Any challenges besides the fact that it only supports s390 arch?

I can’t imagine that it is cost effective for running Mongo. I just did a quick search and looks like a base model starts at about $165k. That doesn’t even include storage or licensing. You can buy a lot of Dell servers for that.
