Lunch&Learn: New Value from RMF/SMF – How to Better Protect Availability by Interpreting the Data with Automatically Applied Built-in Knowledge

"Availability" is often associated with technologies and processes used to RECOVER from service disruptions only after the infrastructure has already caused a production application(s) to become unavailable.  But PROTECTING a continuous availability status before it is disrupted is even better than recovering it after it is lost. 
Availability Intelligence is able to produce visibility of upcoming threats that can disrupt infrastructure service availability so that they can be avoided before impacting production users.  This visibility is significantly beyond what is available with your online monitors and customized SAS reports.
This lunch-n-learn presentation will show how Availability Intelligence is created using the automatic application of built-in infrastructure knowledge to the measurement data.   And it will discuss examples of how it used to proactively protect availability on the DASD, Tape, and other z/OS Resources, and why IntelliMagic believes the majority of mainframe sites will be using these kinds of processes by 2020.
