IBM have announced that they are bringing Apache Spark to z/OS and that's written in Scala so I think it's fair to say that it's going to run on a zIIP.

Interestingly, Spark has a Python API, CPython not Jython. I wonder if IBM are going to support a Python port?

Since Scala compiles to Java byte code and is run like any other java class

code from Scala (or Groovy or JPython or ????) and Java itself. But I've
been proven wrong before.

Scala goes pretty well on z/OS too.
That's an interesting one.Depending on how you interpret those IBM
rules, it may or may not be legit to run it on a zAAP/zIIP. I can
pretty much parse the rule either way, but of course it's IBM who gets
to choose the reading that counts.
