What is BMC AMI DevX?

BMC AMI DevX brings DevOps tooling to mainframe. It enables developers to build modern mainframe innovation to transform monolithic mainframe applications around microservices and refactoring COBOL to callable sub-programs, extending value and reduce complexity while preparing to move to Java.

Improve developer productivity and accelerate software delivery velocity by reducing the toil and context switching associated with traditional mainframe software development. Developers of all skill levels can use industry-leading IDEs, CI/CD, and automated testing tools to ship code faster. DevOps CoE members can leverage insights in different ways to align around data-driven decisions and optimize the value streams of features and innovative capabilities. AI/ML- driven continuous improvement insights further advance mainframe team digital agility and guide mainframe modernization and application transformation journeys with quantifiable evidence. The API-first modularity lets enterprise DevOps teams begin where they are and have ultimate flexibility with DevOps toolchains optimized for their environments. AMI DevX modernizes developer workflows around Git-based source code management (SCM) giving mainframe software delivery teams a familiar set of tools that enable faster performance, improved quality, better alignment, and a higher level of digital maturity.

Key Benefits

- Improve mainframe code quality, efficiency, and security to accelerate mainframe releases and reduce time to market.

- Help mainframe developers code in flow in an environment they know and are happy with.

- Maximizes the value of COBOL applications to modernize monolithic applications and pave the way for Java.

- Introduces Git-based source code management to support parallel development.

- Provides traceability to support regulatory compliance SLAs governing mainframe-based software builds and deployments and automation to safeguard against errors and malicious acts.

- Aggregates and correlates insights from across DevOps toolchains into dashboards that monitor data in real-time. ML detects predictable range of software delivery performance and enables visibility into problem areas to prevent bugs from escaping into production environments.

- Automated testing enables a wide range of manual tasks to be accelerated to practice shift-left methods to catch more bugs sooner.

- Aligns teams around DevOps KPIs (DORA 4) to understand team performance and continuous improvement.

Key Features

- API-first integration capabilities– DevOps toolchains can be built for mainframe with APIs to integrate needed features and capabilities.
- End-to-end DevOps tooling for mainframe - Functionality to adopt mainframe DevOps tools with CI/CD, IDE, and automated testing built-in.
- Enterprise mainframe ready - A DevOps toolchain built with the enterprise in mind with flexible team access and persona-based KPI dashboards.

BMC AMI DevX automates mainframes, enables cross-platform DevOps toolchain integrations, and helps developers to improve quality, velocity, and efficiency to power innovation.

Currently using File-AID across our org. We're mostly using it for creating test data and compares.
  • Extract/load data from one DB or table to another masking the data for testing.
  • Compare extracts against each other to ensure good baselines.
  • I find it more obtuse to use than IBM Optim.
  • Related tables are difficult to incorporate.
It's pretty good at creating an extract of a whole table, but not the best at grabbing all related tables in my experience. Pretty intuitive on setting up your test data categories. I also really like that it can either run via ISPF or via Topaz which was included with our purchase.
  • Saves time creating production like data for testing.
  • Keeps that data safe from developers and need-to-know only.
Optim is more user friendly in how it operates, in my opinion. It's less obtuse to figure out how to extract and mask the data required compared to File-AID. Further, Optim is easier to gather related tables, by far. I do prefer using File-AID via the Topaz GUI much more than using Optim via its GUI. Finally, I personally believe that File-AID is significantly faster to run than Optim - this could be a configuration issue.
Support has been amazing compared to Optim. Further, new features are very regular with File-AID - I can't remember the last time Optim had a significant update. File-AID support is very receptive to feature requests and reported bugs, including sending out hotfixes quickly.
