In many organizations, complex business processes are delivered across applications and systems that are grouped and managed in isolated silos, introducing inefficiency at many levels. In addition, many service management tools are focused on IT resources and IT management processes, ignoring integration with business services and processes. This is why businesses are turning to integrated service management to transform the data center and enable the enterprise to achieve its full potential.

Join us for this complimentary teleconference and learn how Integrated Service Management (ISM) for System z can centralize critical service management functions, and manage heterogeneous resources at the highest quality service levels — including availability, reliability, security, scalability, and performance. By improving discovery and event-driven business service management capabilities for System z, you can better support new business opportunities and new hardware like the zEnterprise™. In this session, we’ll discuss the new ISM for System z cookbooks with detailed information on how to implement ISM, and reference architectures. These details include prescriptive best practices that have been created, based on customer deployments, and are now available to speed your time to value of ISM solutions running on the mainframe.

This session will take a look at how to use these ISM resources to help you:

  • Gain enterprisewide visibility into business processes and services
  • Manage risk and compliance from a centralized hub
  • Build agility into operations by automating repetitive and serial tasks
