Tivoli software solutions for WebSphere

Systems Performance

For companies that are increasingly incorporating e-business into their overall business success, IBM WebSphere provides powerful infrastructure software — a family of proven, secure and reliable software products for building a better and more dynamic e-business.

In these WebSphere-enabled environments, where users have increased access to applications, peak performance is especially important. Dips in performance reliability and quality can negatively impact customer satisfaction, loyalty, business productivity, and a business' bottom-line.

Tivoli software from IBM enhances WebSphere by proactively noting when performance is trending towards failure, enabling you to maintain peak performance, deliver a high level of service to your users and increase staff productivity. This can enable businesses to:

• Proactively identify problems with their WebSphere infrastructure and remediate prior to failure. By knowing when performance is trending toward failure, you are able to remediate the problem prior to failure, before there is an impact access to information or business transactions with any of your business' constituency.
• Proactively identify when key WebSphere business systems are approaching performance thresholds that may impact customer service.
• Evaluate integrated transaction performance to identify areas of degradation, automatically break down WebSphere applications into component parts, and execute "test" transactions to evaluate performance levels, identifying problems before customers, partners, or employees are affected.

Additionally, the autonomic and highly scalable storage management solutions from Tivoli software enable WebSphere customers to protect data resources, reduce storage management cost and complexity, and integrate with other management solutions through flexible, policy-based automation, ensuring business continuity, and improved business efficiency. For businesses operating a SAN environment, Tivoli software solutions for WebSphere can reduce the impact of backups on application performance by exploiting the high-bandwidth of SAN data paths.
