BM Z Business Resilience Stress Test  (zBuRST)   659 KB   1 version
Uploaded - Wed July 07, 2021
The IBM Z Business Resilience Stress Test (zBuRST) assists your team in addressing the need for pre-production testing at scale, focused on eliminating the types of application issues that tend to be missed in today’s dev/test environments.  As an extension to the DevTest offering, zBuRST does this by expanding your DevTest environment, or leveraging your existing DR infrastructure as a mirror image of the production environment, for testing operational aspects that are often difficult to simulate in constrained test environments, including automation testing, stress testing and performance testing.

BM Z Cyber Vault Technical Introduction   11.02 MB   1 version
Uploaded - Wed July 07, 2021
Logical Corruption is a severe problem in todays datacenter management .Single database corruptions can be handled with standard backup processes, but large scale corruptions need point in time copies that can be restored fast and reliably. In addition, trying out the right recovery strategy in a production environment may lead to more complications than recovery. Therefore an isolated environment and immutable copies are the cornerstones of IBMs Z Cyber Vault solution which will be introduced in this 40 minute session. IBM Z Cyber Vault helps clients to identify corruptions and create a plan for fast recovery.

AIOps on IBM Z to improve and Maintain Resiliency   18.25 MB   1 version
Uploaded - Wed July 07, 2021
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a key transformative technology which is largely adopted by businesses around the world. Many organizations today shift to a hybrid business by-design with AI-enabled infrastructure delivering business agility and insight in real-time. The continuous rise of AI affects all aspects of our Z clients’ business. To accelerate insights, IBM is making significant investments in AI throughout the Z hardware and software stack, as well as building AI-driven solutions, including solutions to enhance the resiliency of Z IT systems. With limited staff and complex hybrid offerings that include IBM Z, sifting through terabytes of data in real-time to identify issues and remediate them before outages occurs is critical. IBM Watson AIOps with AI-driven insights can make quick and accurate decisions to maintain your systems resiliency. In this session, we will cover AI market trends and directions, how we are bringing the best of IBM’s AI portfolio to Z to gain business insights, including building intelligent IT operations. We will explore leveraging AI to enhance the resiliency of Z IT systems and discuss various capabilities within IBM Z that leverage the IBM Watson AIOps solution. For example, the new Watson AIOps support for IBM Z with AI-driven incident detection and problem resolution enables your teams to quickly and confidently discover, assess and resolve incidents across mission critical applications that include IBM Z.
