Lower Mainframe Costs
Are Rising Mainframe Costs Pushing Your Organization Off the Mainframe?
Monthly software license costs from IBM are typically your organizations’ single largest line item, and hardware upgrades (planned or unplanned) are also costly. These extraordinary costs are usually the primary motivation for sites migrating away from or outsourcing mainframe operations.
IntelliMagic makes it easy to lower software costs and delay hardware costs or emergency purchases.
Reduce Mainframe Costs and Ensure Service Levels Are Met
In most mainframe sites today, all CPU used is typically counted towards your monthly license cost. Even sites on R4HA licenses benefit from reducing CPU.
IntelliMagic Vision’s intuitive and interactive interface, built-in recommendations, and unprecedented visibility into your environment allows you to easily identify drivers of CPU consumption, and take actions to reduce them without impacting performance or service levels.
Eliminate Emergency Hardware Purchases and Delay Hardware Upgrades
Emergency hardware purchases due to utilization spikes or not enough capacity are budget destroyers. Using IntelliMagic Vision, you can easily delay hardware upgrades or emergency purchases and have unprecedented insights into how efficiently your machines are running. Live-edit reports allows for easy report comparisons and forecasting to anticipate utilization spikes.
How does IntelliMagic Vision optimize z/OS for availability and cost efficiency?
Strategies for CPU Optimization
To achieve savings, a common practice involves CPU optimization. To understand this process, it is necessary to explore various strategies and practices that enhance processor efficiency, thereby contributing to the overall reduction of operational costs.
Maximizing Resources Through Analysis and Optimization
CPU optimization not only enables more efficient use of current hardware but also provides the opportunity to delay the purchase of a new one or even eliminates the need for acquiring a new system altogether, making the most out of the available resources.
Efficient Cost Reduction Without Compromising Mainframe Operations
While cost reduction is a fundamental goal for every company, achieving it should not compromise the efficiency of the system. Therefore, it is crucial to identify opportunities that allow reaching business objectives without compromising the normal operation of the mainframe.
Easily Create, Share, and Export Customized Dashboards for Any Situation
Achieving swift information transmission is crucial for overcoming communication and collaboration barriers among teams or departments. Efficient coordination and centralized information in one place not only reduce downtime but also enhance the overall productivity of the company.
All-in-One Mainframe Management
There is no longer a need to have numerous tools for separate functions or pay for each tool individually. A unified view of the mainframe environment streamlines monitoring, issue resolution, and decision-making processes, ultimately contributing to cost savings and operational excellence.
Interactive Data
Make life easier for both your current and new employees. Enhance the skills of existing teams by providing practical data and recommendations that expedite the learning process.
