ADMINISTRATOR

Accelerator (DAA) package com/
ibm/dataaccess was introduced
in IBM Java 7.1 to ensure
optimal data marshaling and
operations of BCDs within Java.
The IBM JVM, when running
on IBM Z, can recognize DAA
packed decimal methods and
exploit z/Architecture* packed
decimal instructions intrinsically.
By exploiting the same set of
instructions as COBOL, this JVM
feature allows Java to achieve
near-COBOL performance for
decimal processing. Using
the toolkit for Java on Z JZOS
Medicare Record application,
IBM has measured up to 2x better
performance with DAA library and
its hardware acceleration.
In IBM z14, a new set of
packed decimal hardware

instructions have been introduced
to operate with 128-bit-wide
vector registers. Prior hardware
generations only supported
packed decimal operations
using memory-to-memory SSformat instructions. The new
z14 instructions deliver better
performance by avoiding the cache/
memory latencies inherent with the
older SS-format instructions. With
IBM Java 8 SR5, the JVM can detect
when an application is running
on an IBM z14, and transparently
exploit these new z14 instructions
without any application
recompilation required.

Continuous Investment
Java on Z is enabling the
mainframe to participate and
drive modern data center

;
A 2016 survey
of IBM Z clients
using Java on Z
found more than

80%
described their
project as
successful or
very successful

innovation. Clients who have
embraced Java on Z are capturing
skills and lowering costs, while
building portable applications
that offer true fit-for-purpose
placement in the data center.
IBM has invested heavily in Java
on Z for over a decade. With the
z14, IBM continues this aggressive
investment. With new leading
edge hardware facilities like
pause-less GC, high-performance
encryption and decimal
processing acceleration, Java on Z
has secure and high-performance
transaction processing
at-scale. This sustained focus
on the IBM JVM has given it
industry-leading performance and
security while continuing to pay
dividends for the many clients
who have adopted Java on Z.
