The ambition to push IT Operation Analytics further
Business digitalization comes with new challenges and forces companies to implement new solutions for data protection, agile development, and cloud computing. Nonetheless, budget and resources remain limited and need to be controlled. As mainframes are key to the core business of many corporations, IT managers need to understand the big picture behind their operational data to take better decisions. After all, Mainframes are processing 30 billion business transactions per day and managing 80% of all corporate data.
“Data collection, data management and data reporting are no longer sufficient to address these challenges.” Bruno Koch, CEO at zCost Management©, said. “We believe that predictive and prescriptive analytics solutions are key capabilities for an efficient management of mainframe platforms.”
A complete offering to Plan, Control and Analyze
