Business Challenge
As a result of e-commerce and the increasingly competitive marketplace, the need for more information being available 24x7 has increased. IT budgets are being scrutinized. The days of database maintenance occurring on a scheduled routine are over. Today the goal is to minimize the amount of database downtime, while maintaining performance. Another way to say this is “just enough, just in time”. These drivers create the need for user-friendly, intelligent software that can perform the day-to-day tasks of monitoring, analyzing and recommending database maintenance.
Business Need
- Save time, maximize resources, and reduce costs for database and system administration
- Avoid unplanned downtime
- Automate and simplify complex and error-prone tasks
- Ensure availability of mission critical applications
- Speed up application change processes
Our Solution
The MAXM Database Advisor for IMS is an application that proactively and automatically manages full function database environment(s) across IMS and z/OS SYSPLEX's. The MAXM Database Advisor for IMS predicts threshold-exceeding space and database performance events as an exception that requires action within a user-specified lead time. This proactive notification gives the DBA advance warning so that required database maintenance can be planned and scheduled in such a way to have minimal impact on existing SLAs. The product is managed through a flexible, easy-to-use Windowsâ based interface.
Key Features & Benefits
- Automates database monitoring with an advisor equivalent to having onsite DBA coverage 24x7 across multiple IT facilities
- Conserves data management resources by determining whether to run scheduled reorganization jobs, saving CPU cycles and tape and DASD resources
- Improves availability by proactively deciding if and when databases should have maintenance performed, reducing the frequency of database outages
