Maximize IBM Z transaction throughput, minimize system resource usage with real-time, high-performance in-memory table manager
Overview
IBM Z® Table Accelerator is an application optimization solution aimed at helping application owners boost the performance of mission-critical IBM Z® applications and enabling cost-conscious IT operations leaders to reduce resource consumption.
IBM Z Table Accelerator is ideal for organizations seeking to maximize mainframe performance and transaction throughput while minimizing system resource usage. It enables more powerful and efficient applications, reduces the total cost of ownership and lowers operational expenses, potentially extending the time between upgrade investments.
Features
IBM Z Table Accelerator enhances performance by processing frequently used data in-memory, reducing latency and improving query speed. The Virtual Table Share feature allows table data to be shared across regions, further optimizing resource usage.
The accelerator optimizes both batch applications and Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) by reducing CPU and I/O demands, leading to faster batch run times, higher transaction throughput and improved overall system performance.
Business rules and logic can be externalized from legacy applications into in-memory tables, allowing for faster updates to rules in hours or days instead of weeks or months. This feature supports agile, market-reactive application development.
IBM Z Table Accelerator fully supports Sysplex environments, including read-only and read/write tables across LPARs. It also dynamically adjusts resource allocation based on workload demands to help ensure optimal performance.
By reducing the consumption of system resources (CPU, I/O, MIPS/MSU, memory) and incorporating RACF security for data access control, the accelerator lowers operational costs while also modernizing legacy applications by allowing users to expose IBM Z Table Accelerator data to open systems, such as IBM z/OS Connect, without requiring code changes.
