Summary

Dynatrace provides comprehensive end-to-end transaction visibility and proven code-level analysis from cloud to mainframe, significantly enhancing enterprises' ability to eliminate inefficiencies and accelerate innovation. Its software intelligence platform automatically discovers and maps transactions in real-time, offering a competitive edge by addressing monitoring blind spots that can lead to costly inefficiencies, especially within mainframe environments like IBM Z used by many Fortune 500 companies. The latest Dynatrace release, version 1.194, introduces CPU-related infrastructure metrics for IBM Z systems, including LPARs and regions, and expands multidimensional analysis to include CICS, IMS, and the CICS transaction gateway. This allows enterprises to optimize their IBM Z configurations by identifying workloads that can be migrated to less expensive zIIPs, thereby reducing costs associated with license fees and maintenance. Additionally, Dynatrace's AI-powered platform supports anomaly detection and root-cause analysis, facilitating proactive performance management and cost savings. The integration of these metrics into business processes is simplified through the Dynatrace API, and the installation and maintenance of OneAgent on z/OS have been streamlined with new updates.
