In this talk, you will learn how the IBM Z Application Performance Management team is overcoming mainframe tracing limitations to provide full end-to-end visibility of hybrid applications on modern APMs like Instana and AppDynamics.
As IBM transitions into a Hybrid Cloud business model, open-source tooling becomes an important part of scaling software, especially for Z (mainframe) AIOps and monitoring solutions. Due to the nature of Z with its many legacy and in-house protocols, open tracing is a challenge and has led to some limitations for what we can and cannot trace. In this talk, you will learn how the IBM Z Application Performance Management team is overcoming these limitations to provide full end-to-end visibility of hybrid applications on modern APMs like Instana and AppDynamics.
