Extend visibility into IBM z/OS components
IBM® Z® Application Performance Management Connect provides transaction tracking information and resource monitoring metrics from z/OS® subsystems to APM solutions including IBM Application Performance Management and AppDynamics. It can be implemented stand alone on z/OS for transaction tracking data of key z/OS subsystems, or combined with existing OMEGAMON® system monitoring to additionally provide resource monitoring metrics for z/OS Subsystems. IBM Z Application Performance Management Connect will work with both on-prem and Software as a Services (SaaS) APM tooling.
Benefits
See from cloud to mainframe
Monitor hybrid applications spanning public cloud to mainframe and identify components impacting these hybrid applications.
Monitor impacts on z/OS
Build application dashboards for applications deployed in part on IBM Z systems. Update application topologies to be aware of calls made to z/OS resources and aggregate transaction time information.
Optimize investments
Use existing OMEGAMON investments to bring relevant metrics from IBM z/OS systems and middleware into IBM Application Performance Management.
Reduce problem resolution time
Achieve data consistency between IBM Application Performance Management and detailed OMEGAMON monitoring tools on z/OS to rapidly identify and resolve performance issues.
Cover z/OS subsystems
Get transaction tracking data for IBM MQ, CICS®, Db2® and IMS™ DB. Get resource monitoring data from OMEGAMON agents for z/OS, CICS, CICS TG, IMS, Db2, MQ, Java® and z/OS Connect.
Support for multiple APM vendors
Supports both IBM Application Performance Management (resource monitoring metrics only) and AppDynamics (transaction tracking only) for increase flexibility in APM vendor choice.
