What is Broadcom Datacom?

Broadcom Datacom® is a comprehensive enterprise relational database management solution designed to deliver continuous availability, high-volume scalability, and reliable performance for mission-critical business applications operating within mainframe environments. The platform serves as a fault-tolerant enterprise-wide database repository capable of supporting large-scale transaction processing and demanding operational workloads. Datacom leverages advanced database technologies, including zIIP specialty processor exploitation and memory optimization techniques, to improve performance while reducing infrastructure and operational costs. The solution is built to scale efficiently as organizations grow, taking advantage of modern hardware innovations and continuously evolving performance enhancements delivered through Broadcom’s ongoing development efforts. Datacom also plays a major role in modernization initiatives by enabling developers and database administrators to automate the creation of REST APIs that connect mainframe business data to modern cloud, mobile, and web applications. The platform integrates with modern development environments such as Visual Studio Code and Eclipse CHE, allowing newer developers to work with familiar open IDE tools while maintaining and enhancing mainframe applications. Advanced SQL performance analysis capabilities provide browser-based visibility into running and cached queries, enabling teams to monitor performance, troubleshoot issues, and optimize workloads more effectively. Broadcom further supports modernization through workshops, API generators, product strategy webinars, technical documentation, and continuous delivery updates that help organizations adopt new capabilities quickly and efficiently. Additional tools such as Datacom Health Analyzer and Datacom Server 15.1 help organizations reduce CPU usage, improve system health visibility, and streamline database operations without requiring application changes.
