Description

Enhance both your production and staging environments by integrating logs, metrics, and traces in real-time and on-demand directly from your IDE or command line interface. With Lightrun, you can significantly improve productivity and achieve complete code-level visibility. You can add logs and metrics instantly while services are operational, making it easier to debug complex architectures like monoliths, microservices, Kubernetes, Docker Swarm, ECS, and serverless applications. Quickly insert any missing log lines, instrument necessary metrics, or establish snapshots as needed without the hassle of recreating the production setup or redeploying. When you invoke instrumentation, the resulting data gets sent to your log analysis platform, IDE, or preferred APM tool. This allows for thorough analysis of code behavior to identify bottlenecks and errors without interrupting the running application. You can seamlessly incorporate extensive logs, snapshots, counters, timers, function durations, and much more without risking system stability. This streamlined approach lets you focus on coding rather than getting bogged down in debugging, eliminating the need for constant restarts or redeployments when troubleshooting. Ultimately, this results in a more efficient development workflow, allowing you to maintain momentum on your projects.

Description

Z/XDC offers developers an interactive and source-level debugging experience for mainframe programs within any z/OS environment, enabling them to navigate through live code, monitor variables in real-time, and address issues more swiftly than conventional techniques allow. By eliminating the guesswork inherent in traditional debugging, it grants comprehensive, real-time insight into program execution and introduces advanced debugging features to mainframe development. With Z/XDC, developers can significantly cut down on debugging durations, transforming a process that typically takes days into one that can be accomplished in hours, allowing them to test hypotheses instantly without the need for lengthy recompilation, make spontaneous modifications, run “what if” scenarios, correct problems, and validate solutions efficiently. Among its capabilities, Z/XDC allows for precise line-by-line stepping through code, instant code alterations, flag adjustments, modifications of data fields and registers, control over the Program Status Word (PSW), and the ability to load or delete modules, as well as manage memory with GETMAINs and FREEMAINs, and post Event Control Blocks. Additionally, it ensures source-level visibility, allowing developers to view the code as initially written, automatically load source image maps from ADATA, and access a variety of other helpful features, making it an indispensable tool for modern mainframe programming. This integration of advanced debugging functionalities enhances overall productivity and streamlines the development workflow for programmers working in mainframe environments.
