What is JOPAZ?

JOPAZ improves the efficiency of mainframe systems by smartly redistributing processing resources through optimized COBOL workload management. This cutting-edge solution allows companies to fully leverage their potential on IBM Z, where COBOL applications remain vital to operations, benefiting from the platform's robust security, resilience, and scalability. As workloads grow and the capacity of general processors becomes constrained, JOPAZ skillfully reallocates application tasks to the IBM z Integrated Information Processor (zIIP) by transforming COBOL source code into Java bytecode. This strategic transition reduces the high utilization on general processors, thereby freeing up essential resources while enhancing overall performance and efficiency. Furthermore, it opens up additional capacity for important projects without requiring any alterations to the existing codebase. JOPAZ empowers teams to maintain their COBOL applications, alleviate pressure from COBOL workloads on general processors, avoid the complexities of data migration, and preserve source code management with familiar development tools, ensuring a smooth transition in operations. By facilitating this process, organizations can prioritize innovation while safeguarding the robustness of their legacy systems, thus creating a balanced environment for growth and stability.

What is BMC AMI Strobe?

BMC AMI Strobe is a mainframe application performance monitoring solution that helps teams find, understand, and fix performance problems with precise code-level insight. It is built for developers and performance analysts who need to identify inefficient statements, resource-heavy jobs, costly SQL, wait time issues, and production bottlenecks without relying on guesswork. The platform supports shift-left performance management by enabling measurements inside CI/CD pipelines, helping teams catch problems earlier in the software delivery process. BMC AMI Strobe offers comprehensive coverage for mainframe environments that include CICS, Db2, IMS, Java, COBOL, IBM Language Environment, and file access. Its iStrobe browser-based analytics provide visual tools such as CPU usage treemaps, wait reports, tuning categories, and detailed views of statements that consume excessive resources. The Java dashboard helps teams monitor JVM activity, while BMC AMI Strobe Advisor identifies SQL access paths, catalog statistics, high-cost SQL, and Db2 cost information. AutoStrobe improves productivity by making performance measurements predictable, repeatable, and easier to configure for users with different experience levels. Global Batch Monitoring uses SMF data, rolling CPU averages, and elapsed time metrics to detect high-consuming jobs and initiate measurements automatically. The platform also supports soft capacity peak time reporting, helping teams understand R4HA MSU usage and identify what ran during peak periods. Integrations with Jenkins, Azure, REST APIs, extensions, plugins, and JCL cards make it easier to embed performance monitoring into existing DevOps workflows. BMC AMI Strobe helps mainframe organizations improve application performance, reduce resource consumption, prevent service-level issues, and support more efficient modernization practices.
