Humm, first generation unix partitioning from IBM, or 5th generation partitioning from Sun
IBM has been doing LPARs and Virtual Machines a long, long time on mainframes. According to this article, IBM started studying logical partitioning in 1976. I think Sun qualifies as the newcomer if you are just talking about partitioning technology.
See Linux on the IBM ESA/390 Mainframe Architecture for info on running Linux on S/390 LPARs
