Mainframe Monitoring Tools monitor availability and performance indicators of hardware systems and subsystem resources across the enterprise.
Beyond this, a monitoring platform may also track operating systems, middleware, databases, and other network components for fault and failure, or for deviation from optimal performance.
While many businesses have begun moving away from mainframes in favor of virtualized or condensed infrastructure, most business applications still need a mainframe and a majority of business data is stored on one. With that in mind visibility into a business's mainframe can help the organization optimize mainframe performance, and keep track of factors like memory usage. Most mainframe tools integrate with other monitoring tools so that businesses can create a single source of visibility into their infrastructure.
The following features are commonly included in mainframe monitoring solutions:
Increased mainframe visibility
IT system integrations
Mainframe reports and analysis
Mainframe data extraction
As with all monitoring tools, the biggest consideration for most businesses when selecting a mainframe monitoring tool is how compatible it is with their mainframe, and how it integrates with their other monitoring and analysis tools. These integrations are key because they allow businesses to store and analyze all their monitoring data in a single application. Most mainframe monitoring tools offer a variety of integrations, some prebuilt, and some that require development work. Be sure to pick a tool that works well with the other tools your business is using.
Mainframe monitoring tools are priced on a monthly basis depending on what features they offer. Businesses should expect to pay at least $100.00 per month depending on their feature needs.
