What is HCL Z Asset Optimizer (ZAO)?

Prevent your Z System from being overloaded with outdated and superfluous software by optimizing the value derived from your Mainframe systems; this can be accomplished by promoting sustained innovation and rapid deployment through a thorough IT asset management strategy that focuses on the most beneficial software resources for your organization. This approach not only streamlines software costs and simplifies asset management tasks but also ensures that you can easily comply with software vendor audits. ZAO efficiently compiles an accurate inventory of software assets across all mainframe systems by running a batch job that detects loadable programs within zOS® data sets and z/OS UNIX Systems Services file systems. By consistently monitoring and reporting the usage of each asset, you gain valuable insights into software asset performance. In addition, ZAO enables you to incorporate licensing information for your vendor software assets, which is then cross-checked against the inventory and usage metrics of your mainframe systems to reveal areas for optimization and potential audit vulnerabilities. Implementing this comprehensive program not only boosts operational efficiency but also fortifies compliance and promotes strategic allocation of resources, ultimately positioning your organization for sustained success in a competitive landscape. Additionally, this proactive approach allows for timely adjustments to ever-evolving software needs, ensuring that your organization remains agile and responsive in the face of change.

What is BMC AMI Ops?

BMC AMI Ops is an AIOps-powered mainframe operations platform that helps enterprises improve observability, resilience, performance, automation, and cost control. The solution is designed for teams managing critical mainframe environments where blind spots, alert noise, manual triage, and performance issues can create operational risk. BMC AMI Ops provides a single integrated view across multiple mainframe systems and subsystems, giving teams clearer visibility into z/OS, z/OS UNIX, CICS, Db2, IMS, IBM MQ, Java workloads, networks, storage, batch processing, and capacity drivers. Its AI-driven anomaly detection helps identify unusual behavior and potential issues before they become service disruptions. Self-learning AI and machine learning models continuously adapt to system behavior, improving the accuracy of problem detection over time. Embedded GenAI capabilities translate findings into context, business impact, and guided remediation so operators can move from alert to action faster. The platform also supports OpenTelemetry-compliant streaming, helping organizations extend mainframe observability into broader enterprise monitoring and analytics platforms. BMC AMI Ops helps consolidate alerts, reduce operational noise, automate repetitive tasks, and improve mean time to detect and resolve problems. Its automation and optimization capabilities can reduce human error, improve resource utilization, lower CPU and MIPS usage, and support more efficient mainframe operations. The broader capability set includes monitoring, automation, network visibility, CICS control, Db2 optimization, IMS insights, Java environment monitoring, MQ management, storage oversight, batch optimization, cost analytics, console management, and real-time operational data streaming.
