SUMMARY:CMG TORONTO Regional Event: AI & Mainframe – Exploring the Future of Enterprise Computing
DESCRIPTION:Join us for CMG’s AI & Mainframe Regional Event in Toronto\, Ontario\, an exclusive\, in-person gathering bringing together industry experts\, technology leaders\, and practitioners to explore the intersection of Mainframe and Artificial Intelligence. Hosted at IBM Markham\, this one-day event will feature insightful presentations\, real-world case studies\, and interactive discussions on how AI is transforming mainframe operations\, security\, and application development. \nDon’t miss this opportunity to engage with experts and peers at the forefront of Mainframe & AI innovation. \n \n  \n  \nhttps://lp.constantcontactpages.com/ev/reg/hshszcp/lp/9814e4e4-e7c6-426b-b75d-3df67576a3f5 \n🧭WHERE \nIBM Canada Software Lab\n8200 Warden Ave.\, Markham\, ON L6G 1C7\nView on map \n🕰 DATE AND TIME \nAPR 23\, 2025 08:30am ET – Apr 23\, 2025 05:00pm ET \nAdd to Google · Outlook Web · Outlook Mobile · Yahoo · iCal \n🕰 SPONSORS \n \n  \n  \n  \n🎤SESSIONS \nAre you worried about Skynet? I’m not worried about Skynet (even though an AI program wrote this abstract)! This presentation will provide a framework for thinking about AI\, clarifying its capabilities and limitations. By understanding that current AI primarily functions through sophisticated pattern matching and detection\, we can better discern which tasks and challenges AI can effectively address and\, crucially\, which it cannot. This framework will demystify AI’s impressive feats\, revealing them as complex pattern recognition rather than genuine understanding or consciousness\, and ultimately dispel fears of a technological singularity. Presented by Larry​​​​ Strickland\, DATAKINETICS \nAI-assisted risk\, resilience & performance management for mainframe with IBM Concert With a newly launched integration\, Concert + Z aims to help hybrid SecOps teams understand application performance degradations to assess risk\, manage enterprise compliance holistically\, and accelerate change-related troubleshooting to be more resilient. This session will be beneficial to mainframe executives\, application owners or anyone in SRE\, compliance\, performance\, and/or Z architect roles. There will be a product demonstration\, and we’ll openly ideate new integration opportunities for driving value across infrastructure/application teams. Presented by Andrew Bowker\, IBM \nOptimizing Application Performance with AI: A MAT-Driven Approach Traditional performance tuning struggles with dynamic workloads. AI transforms this process by enabling automated\, intelligent optimization.\nThis session explores how Broadcom’s Mainframe Application Tuner (MAT) leverages AI to:\n – Detect inefficiencies and optimize resources\n – Identify performance bottlenecks in real-time\n – Provide actionable insights for faster issue resolution\nReal-world case studies will show successful AI-driven optimizations. Attendees will learn practical strategies to enhance application efficiency and adaptability. Presented by Gashaw Tsegaye Shawo\, Broadcom \nFuture Proofing Mainframe Applications Explore how Bank of Montreal (BMO) is driving enterprise-wide innovation through its strategic adoption of IBM’s watsonx platform. In this session\, Amelia Aroda (BMO) and Jay Manickam (IBM) will share insights into the start of BMO’s AI journey on the mainframe. Learn how this partnership will strengthening mainframe capabilities\, improving skills and knowledge transfer for talent\, and setting the foundation for the future of AI in financial services. Presented by Amelia Aroda\, BMO\, and Jay Manickam\, IBM \nGenerative AI for Mainframe Code Assistants Presented by Milandeep Shergill\, IBM \nProactive Reliability: The Role of Machine Learning in Observability The SRE role is increasingly expanding into the mainframe environment to gain a comprehensive view of application flows and performance. As a result\, observability tools have become essential for mainframe operations. The next phase of this evolution is the integration of machine learning with observability\, bridging the gap between enterprise and mainframe monitoring. This session will explore this trend and discuss available tools\, from Broadcom’s mainframe-specific WatchTower Platform to enterprise solutions like Splunk\, DataDog\, and more.
