As storage environments continue to grow and become more complex, maintaining stable, high-performing systems is a business imperative, and IntelliMagic's software solutions can help.

New storage technologies are quickly maturing and replacing legacy platforms. But will they be mature enough to meet your high availability, high performance IT infrastructure needs?

IntelliMagic Vision for z/OS is a wonderful tool to review zEDC activity and there are likely two reports of great interest, The PCIe Card Utilization, and Compression Ratios.

Since most storage management algorithms optimize their enterprise storage automatically, you may not have the time or tools to quantify how your Flash is performing.

As the price per gigabyte of flash storage is rapidly decreasing, experts predict that flash will soon be the dominant medium in high-end storage.

MLC costs already consume the largest chunk of many sites mainframe budgets. Here's how you can beat the MLC price increase.

The cloud provides an economic model for computing that may work well for some workloads by reducing costs and having end users pay for what they use.

It may feel like all-flash systems will solve all your performance issues, but the complexity of the entire infrastructure ensures that there are still plenty of problems to run into.

When processor cache is optimized, mainframe processors remain productive by actively executing instructions rather than unproductively burning cycles.

While most mainframe shops have explored how to reduce mainframe software costs, at IntelliMagic we are finding significant latent savings opportunities still exist at even the best run sites.

Adaptive Optimization (AO) provides the user with several performance and capacity related parameters for influencing the behavior of the automatic tiering.

To avoid getting overloaded with meaningless alarms, it is important to implement best practices, the first being a software solution that is intelligent.
