DataKinetics announces expanded relationship with IBM to deliver Z Systems mainframe innovation and new business value to global Z community

Company to collaborate with IBM on AIOps Portfolio

Ottawa, Canada—May 12, 2020—DataKinetics, the global leader in mainframe performance and optimization solutions, and long-standing IBM Business Partner, announced today that is yet again further expanding its relationship with the company, this time to deliver Z systems mainframe innovation and new business value to global Z community.

This latest endeavor by DataKinetics and IBM will enable firms to enhance the performance and value of their IBM Z systems investments through the AIOps portfolio. These newly available tools are set to optimize mainframe performance, data performance, address capacity constraints, and derive greater value from customers’ Z systems investments.

“Our customers demand highly-focused IBM mainframe innovation to solve their most complex and mission critical business challenges—an undertaking that we have embraced for 40+ years that has become the defining factor in our global success.” commented Allan Zander, CEO of DataKinetics. “It is for this very reason that we are now once again expanding our relationship with IBM to deliver another leading-edge solution that will come to define mainframe digital transformation in the years to come.

IBM’s AIOps uses artificial intelligence to simplify IT operations management and accelerate and automate problem resolution in complex modern IT environments. It bridges the gap between an increasingly diverse, dynamic, and difficult-to-monitor IT landscape, on the one hand, and user expectations for little or no interruption in application performance and availability, on the other. Most experts consider AIOps to be the future of IT operations management.

As customers continue to innovate and transform their operations, DataKinetics’ in-memory processing technology will be leveraged to help operations teams take control of application optimization and cost independent of mainframe licensing model.

DataKinetics continues to grow its high-profile portfolio of IBM Mainframe and IBM Z clients, including the world’s top global banks, financial services companies, credit card companies, and insurers (BFSI).

DataKinetics is a member of IBM PartnerWorld, IBM’s partner program that empowers businesses with the tools and resources they need to help transform clients into industry leaders. For more information regarding DataKinetics’ collaboration with IBM, or DataKinetics’ Mainframe Performance and Optimization solutions, please visit www.dkl.com.
