Description

BMC AMI Strobe is a mainframe application performance monitoring tool designed for developers, performance analysts, and IT teams that need fast answers about application inefficiencies. It helps teams move beyond manual log reviews by providing detailed visibility into where applications consume excessive CPU, wait time, and system resources. The platform enables shift-left performance testing by allowing teams to take mainframe measurements within CI/CD pipelines before performance issues reach production. BMC AMI Strobe provides specialized insight for environments using CICS, Db2, IMS, Java, COBOL, IBM Language Environment, and file access. With iStrobe’s browser-based analytics, users can review resource-heavy program statements, CPU usage treemaps, wait reports, SQL access paths, Db2 cost details, and JVM activity. AutoStrobe helps make measurements more predictable by supporting scheduled, repeatable tests and automatic performance monitoring. Global Batch Monitoring can detect jobs with unusual CPU consumption or elapsed time patterns and trigger measurements for deeper analysis. The platform integrates with Jenkins, Azure, CI/CD tools, REST APIs, extensions, plugins, and JCL cards to support automated performance workflows. BMC AMI Strobe helps organizations tune mainframe applications, reduce bottlenecks, control MIPS usage, and maintain more reliable service performance.

Description

IBM RACF for z/OS provides a robust framework for safeguarding mainframe resources by utilizing resource managers to make informed access control decisions. By ensuring that only authorized individuals gain access, it plays a crucial role in keeping sensitive data secure. Users can be authenticated through various means, including passwords, password phrases, digital certificates, Kerberos tickets, or PassTickets. To effectively manage and control access to critical z/OS data, implementing tools designed for this purpose is essential. The RACF database stores detailed information about users, resources, and their corresponding access rights, which is essential for enforcing your security policies. This database is instrumental in determining who can access protected resources based on established security guidelines. Additionally, RACF features comprehensive logging and reporting capabilities that track user attempts—both successful and unsuccessful—to access resources, thus facilitating the detection of potential security breaches or vulnerabilities. This functionality enhances your ability to monitor and respond to security threats. Moreover, with the RRSF, you can execute most RACF commands on a node while using a user ID that is different from the one currently logged in, offering greater flexibility in managing security. This level of control is vital for maintaining a secure mainframe environment.
