Mainframe-inclusive observability
Created: | Updated:
z/IRIS enables support for mainframe observability with any APM software by creating and integrating traces and metrics for each Rest API call, JDBC request or transaction that mainframe systems process.
Using OpenTelemetry, z/IRIS is able to stream mainframe application traces near real-time to the observability platform of your choosing.
Additional insights into z/OS applications will allow DevOps and SRE teams to monitor and analyse how mainframe applications perform for complex business applications and services.
z/IRIS traces are designed to provide performance, resource consumption and error status for various applications running in z/OS. Each trace is carefully curated to be comprehensible to non-mainframe SME’s. These traces also include z/OS specific transaction identifiers that can be fed into specialized mainframe analysis tools for a more thorough root-cause analysis.
