The rapid increase in workloads and the need to prepare for dynamic e-business applications means being able to plan, monitor and proactively manage all aspects of the environment. Effective e-business management requires business application focus to exploit technologies such as Parallel Sysplex, OS/390 Workload Manager/Goal Mode, z/OS, zSeries, zAAP, Websphere, LPAR clusters & IRD.
