As today’s infrastructures grow in complexity, effective resource management becomes more critical – and more difficult. Existing tools monitor some components, but provide no visibility to impacts and interactions across the entire infrastructure – resulting in unforeseen inefficiencies and higher costs.
Comprehensive, centralized management. With IBM Service Management Center for System z (SMCz), you can see and manage all components across your infrastructure, including distributed systems, mainframes, operating systems, today’s applications and data. This comprehensive visibility helps improve performance and reduce costs. See how Sparkassen Informatik reduced IT costs and increased productivity by consolidating delivery and management of enterprise-wide workloads to a single point of operational control.
Seamless integration and automation. In addition to its automatic provisioning capabilities, SMCz enables easy integration across multiple vendor platforms. This improves your ability to better anticipate and respond to system performance issues and security threats, including recovery processes and critical path analysis.
Reduced costs. SMCz helps you maximize value from your assets. You can also significantly reduce labor costs, as well as disruptions from manual errors and ticket generation. See how leading health and life reinsurer Swiss Re did just that, cutting the number of unsolved problems to virtually zero.
