Optimize your Mainframe

MainframeResource and Cost Management

Managing the use of MSUs is largely a manual process that requires unique and scarce personnel, is time-consuming, prone to human error and expensive.

zGuard allows you to automatically optimize the MSU per hour of your mainframes, making the most out of your MSUs.

Control Your Daily Workloads

Automated LPAR HMC Configuration

zGuard enables you to perfectly manage and control your daily workloads and tailor your optimization algorithms to your requirements. The calculated values enable an interactive HiperDispatch ranking of your LPARs, allowing you to unlock the full potential of your platform.

Adapt Instantly

Prevent unpredictable MLC peaks and costs

Eliminate the trade-off between performance and cost with zGuard’s event-driven automation.

Custom algorithms instantly trigger actions on your mainframes with every event, dynamically optimizing resources minute by minute. Keep your mainframes primed to meet real-time demands without compromise.

Algorithm your Way to Optimization

Use built-in or create custom algorithms

Huge selection of built-in algorithms, designed to optimize your mainframes. Continously updated to ensure your team has access to the latest advancements.

Alternatively, develop your own algorithms in PHP in the zGuard editor for further freedom.
