outages & problem resolution and take automated actions
8
ITOM & ITOA are converging…
Tomorrow
zITOM market will, to some extent, follow the trend in ITOM market, in that
customers will be moving away from traditional monitoring tools and begin to
adopt ITOA solutions that also offer “analytics with monitoring”.
• Clients are increasingly looking for
Service Management Tooling to do the
heavy lifting.
• Focus on both cost and skills leading to
clients requiring offerings that are both
- Simpler to run
- Easier to use

Opportunities for ITOA
Cost Optimization, Hybrid Cloud, SaaS Intense focus on cost optimization is leading to new offerings in the market
place driven by workload growth, in many cases from mobile. Vendors are
positioning for thought leadership to become trusted advisor on managing z
cost. Importance of efficiency in offerings is also key in winning share.Sources: BMC Annual Mainframe Study 2013

Modern & Integrated IT Operations Experience (IT modernization and
Skills)Vendors continue to address skills issues in the mainframe market as well as evolving
offerings to become more integrated and efficient. Increased focus on simplified
experience to mitigate skills loss within datacentre and bridge skills requirements
between host, distributed and cloud.Sources: Gartner – Future of Mainframe

zIT Operational Analytics, (Big Data Analytics, Cognitive) Most enterprises are not leveraging mainframe data to support data driven
decision making as much as they should. Considering the type of data stored
in mainframes – such as financial transaction data – enterprises are not
recognising the value of this data. Enterprises with heavy mainframe use
cannot afford to overlook this important source of value.Sources: Wikibon.org: Jeff Kelly

A Look Into How IBM zAware Improves
Availabil ity
Does it take a lot of skil ls and time to wade through the large volume of logs to find the problem? Wouldn't you like to knowas soon as
the system starts experiencing unusual situations? IBM zAware delivers on IBM's continuing drive to improve System z availability by
early detection of anomalies in z/OS system behavior. With the new IBM z13 system, IBM zAware has added support for Linux logs
anomaly detection in addition to the z/OS message anomaly detection. In this session you will learn about the new features and
enhancements in this cutting edge analytics solution.

Merged: Bringing Real-time SMF Data to Life
with New ITOA for z Systems
SMF data is traditionally used to performance tuning, chargeback and capacity planning. See how IBM is bringing this valuabledata
source into the light with tailored views in near real time to supplement Operations Analytics. Improve Search capability by linking
messages to ‘l ive’ system statistics. Predict when problems are going occur with ‘l ive’ data. Optimise your system’s performance on the
fly using warnings that performance is degrading as it happens. We no longer have to rely on the rear view mirror perspective, sifting
through the data for the root cause. Be proactive and solve problems before they happen and arm yourself to be able to recover quickly
from any problem with the SDE.

IT Operations Analytics = Bridging Business
and IT
The ability to meet customer demands now and in the future is a critical function in any business. Being caught by surprise by spikes in
IT demand from the business could mean you are not just leaving money on the table, but also not meeting your customers' needs.
Come see how to collect, organize and convert infrastructure data into business-relevant information, and how solutions from IBM can
help you to 1) describe and understand current state 2) predict future trends and growth and 3) provide prescriptive optimization
recommendations to address gap analysis or anomaly detection "what-if" scenarios. The insight you gain will allow you to better handle
business dynamics of the applications that consume IT infrastructure resources. Ann Dowling, IBM

Introduction to Capacity Management
Analytics
With new and evolving business requirements, it becomes more important than ever to quickly understand how a change in business is
going to impact the IT demand and whether there is sufficient infrastructure capacity to satisfy the demand. This makes capacity
management pivotal to an organization to ensure optimized resource utilization, while at the same time guaranteeing application
performance. In this session, see how IBM’s Capacity Management Analytics solution enables the management of the complete IT l ife
cycle, with cost effective analysis of usage, service objectives, resource util ization, system tuning, accounting, cost recovery, and the
measurement and management of available and planned capacity. Ann Dowling, IBM 35
