Description

As the pace of digitization accelerates, the intricacies of managing mainframe capacity and associated costs also increase significantly. The BMC AMI Capacity and Cost portfolio enhances system availability, anticipates capacity constraints in advance, and streamlines mainframe software expenses, which can account for a staggering 30-50 percent of the overall mainframe budget. Striking a balance between risk and efficiency is essential to achieving operational resilience, necessitating clear visibility into workload fluctuations that could affect both mainframe availability and business requirements. The management of mainframe software licensing costs and pricing structures can be clarified, providing measurable business insights into technical cost data and their underlying factors. By diagnosing capacity challenges before they disrupt operations, organizations can leverage intelligent workflows informed by nearly 50 years of BMC expertise, thus empowering the future generation of mainframe systems. Additionally, effectively managing the capacity settings of less critical workloads can lead to cost optimization while simultaneously safeguarding service levels, further enhancing organizational efficiency. In this way, businesses can remain agile and responsive in an ever-evolving digital landscape.
