USE CASES

REVIEW WLM

Workload management (WLM) lets users manage system resources, but its complexity can be overwhelming. Our analytics dashboard verifies that WLM tuning efforts optimize mainframes.

REDUCE COSTS WHILE IMPROVING PERFORMANCE

Our solution helps you find and fix outdated software and contracts to save money and maximize your budget. Our platform controls mainframe costs and improves performance.

INTELLIGENT RESOURCE CONTROL

zGuard is an industry-leading product that offers exceptional capabilities in the z/OS domain, specifically in terms of resource optimization, cost management, and mainframe capping.

DRILL DOWN TO PROBLEMS IN SECONDS

You can confidently make and validate WLM decisions and perform root-cause analyses when needed. The tool’s simple graphics show mainframe performance in real time, helping you optimize resources and achieve goals.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Finding optimization opportunities can be difficult. Our analytics software can collect SMF records in real time, store them in a centralized database, and display them in a user-friendly interface, helping IT staff better synthesize data and find new z/OS optimization opportunities.

OPTIMIZE CAPACITY PLANNING

Unoptimized code can slow application performance, slowing the mainframe system over time. Our mainframe analytics dashboard provides a big-picture view of z/OS activity and application data in an easy-to-use interface, helping mainframe managers identify and resolve capacity planning and optimization issues.

REAL-TIME MONITORING & ALERTING

This powerful solution lets you identify and address potential cost factors, including “zIIP on CP” consumption, by providing consumption and delay values for all Workload Manager service classes every minute. zGuard uses processor topology data to rank your LPARs with HiperDispatch and maximize your platform.
