Hi, everyone!

Would you know the difference between Mainframe Batch and Online in terms of CT cost distribution in Apptio?  Is there something like...MF Online has a higher charge vs MF Batch?  Something like that?  Because as I see in our CT, they are equally computed according to the utilization.

Can you help me, please?

Hi Maria,
Great question and definitely a common one when it comes to mainframe.

To add in my query...
And since they are categorized separately, I think there might be a difference on how CT charge the cost.  I remember in my previous employer that MF Online execution is more expensive than running it in batch.  Is this principle applied in CT in Apptio?

Appreciate your immediate help as we are about to discuss this with our business unit and I cannot see difference on how the cost is computed :(

Thanks in advance!
