ABSTRACTS
zVPS Version 5 now provides z/OS
Performance Management and more….
After 30 years of firsts and bests, Velocity Software is
looking at where else the mainframe as we know it can
be improved. Applications such as MONGODB,
SpectrumScale/GPFS, DOCKER now have support.
ILMT support allows easier understanding and
control over your software costs. The z/OS platform
has some complexities that could be easily (for us)
improved. With no java, no need for ziips, efficient
code, and the ability to utilize all the z/VM tools,
zVPS will now absorb SMF records and start
providing z/OS performance management functions
on the same pane of glass as your z/VM, network,
VSE, Linux and distributed platforms.
Using Your Performance Monitor
to Watch z/VM and Linux on IBM Z
Sometimes bad things happen to good systems. Your
environments run all day, every day, and trouble can
creep up if they are not monitored. Systems
Programmers and Linux Admins have a lot to do
without watching system monitor screens all day. See
how to proactively monitor your z/VM and Linux on
Z environments with tools available in zVPS.
MongoDB for Hotel Room
Shopping from Marriott
Shopping traffic against Marriott’s reservation system
has grown by leaps and bounds over the past 3 years
pushing the boundaries of zTPF. Please join Marriott,
IBM and MongoDB to see where the results of a
successful POC took us.
Coming Soon to a z/VM near you
Bill will describe a few of the more significant
enhancements to z/VM that are in the pipeline. He’ll
also mention some of the other less significant but still
interesting items under consideration or construction.
PARKING
Parking is available in CA parking lot. Please go to the
