So... I ask myself how this is possible. And (for me) even more

How possible???! How is *anything* possible? Software!
Tape emulation is even easier than DASD.
FWIW, z/VSE has had this capability integrated into the operating system
for a long time. They call it VTAPE. Either a local VSAM file or any
file on a remote Java server (via TCP/IP) is used.
