BMC Launches Advanced Mainframe Performance Advisor Technology

摘要

According to a recent industry survey, 99 percent of large mainframe shops (those using more than 10,000 MIPS) use DB2 for z/OS. The survey also revealed that 83 percent of large mainframe shops predicted an increase in MIPS, 31 percent being double digit growth. With the exponential growth in data and 80 percent of the world's data residing on the mainframe, optimal performance of DB2 applications is crucial as organizations look to manage the data that powers their businesses. To meet that challenge, Houston, Texas-based BMC Software on October 14 introduced an advanced Performance Advisor technology as part of BMC SQL Performance for DB2 for z/OS. The new technology provides customers with a proactive means to identify and resolve performance problems, reducing CPU consumption by as much as 85 percent while improving service levels and productivity.
