BMC AMI Ops vs. IBM OMEGAMON

The best part of AMI Ops for z OS, CICS DB2, or Network management, which I like and prefer to use, is that there are so many very useful Views for almost all purposes, specifically to analyze system performance issues that really impact Business.

Certainly, the tool is useful for debugging applications and for real-time monitoring. It's a bit less useful, not to say useless when applications are client servers. We have used it heavily above all to optimize the DB/2 applications. We managed to reduce the need for additional MIPS year by year.

• Monitor the health of the system. Alert when the threshold is met such as CPU DASD I/O MVS Storage
• Does a very good job with IMS Reporting and threshold notification. region Looping, high CPU
• Java region Gabbage collection reporting work great with IBM Health center.

• Going back in history must be improved, its not that flexible.
• The current interval in the z OS panel is 1 minute. However, the backward details show 15 15-minute intervals, which is not helpful.
• The job delay reason column should include a more exact reason instead of a general statement.

Because of the overall feature set is has. However I feel there is some room for improvement especially in documentation and wider API integration

BMC AMI Cloud and Data provides a data resiliency solution for the cloud. It is for customers looking to 1. backup their decades-worth of data stored in physical or virtual tapes to Cloud storage (AWS S3), 2. perform analytics and business intelligence to run targeted customers or campaigns on mainframe data now available in the cloud, and 3. use the data as backup/ restore copies in the event of a disaster.

Naturally, during the software selection, other tools from other similar vendors were compared as functionalities. more benchmarks have been made to control the Omegamon overhead on applications. certainly, it has influenced the fact that the mainframe base software is IBM and Omegamon is IBM so the compatibility problems are automatically solved.
