Business challenge
Applications management has become increasingly more challenging on the S/390 and z/OS platform. With the advent of e-business, performance management solutions for OS/390 and z/OS must be equipped to manage traffic from the application’s view. Measuring end-user response time is an absolute requirement in today’s IT world.
BMC Software solution
The MAINVIEW for VTAM product from BMC Software specifically addresses the key areas of availability, tuning, throughput and end-to-end response times relative to the SNA communications protocol.
MAINVIEW for VTAM allows administrators of OS/390 environments to measure response time down to the transaction level - an exclusive technology.
MAINVIEW for VTAM brings new capabilities to VTAM system management by linking advanced automation capabilities with traditional ULTRAOPT response time monitoring optimization. It offers improved availability, recoverability and service for all users. MAINVIEW for VTAM helps you determine how well your end users are being serviced. MAINVIEW for VTAM is flexible and easy to use.
Data stream optimization
MAINVIEW for VTAM works with ULTRAOPT to increase network throughput, speed response times, and improve user productivity. It can eliminate or delay the need for additional communications hardware and can also eliminate the need to install and maintain optimization products in each application.
ULTRAOPT is the leading data stream optimization solution on the market. It provides unequalled performance improvements for network devices using 3270 data streams over both SNA and TCP/IP networks.
You can customize ULTRAOPT to optimize only the applications you specify, with only the techniques of optimization appropriate for that application.
MAINVIEW integration
The MAINVIEW solution from BMC Software is a reliable, integrated set of products that gives you complete control of your stand-alone OS/390 or z/OS enterprise server or complex Parallel Sysplex cluster environment. With MAINVIEW at work in your enterprise, your data center operates more efficiently and manages application service levels from a business perspective. Many problems are detected and solved automatically, and troubleshooting is easier and faster.
