▪ Utilize historical data
▪ Define bands of Likely and Unlikely
▪ Map real-time metric streams
▪ Multi-point alerts generated using
industry-standard Western-Electric
rules
▪ Make static thresholds optional!

“Issue easily found within minutes.”
“Anomaly detection would have
alerted of the issue 2 hours before
we even knew we had a problem…”
“…5 hours before we took action.”
Detect Problems
Hours Earlier
CHALLENGE:
• Major system incident resulted in 8 hour outage
• Average cost of a critical application failure per
hour is $500,000 to $1 million1
Prevent costly
downtime with
earlier warning
of critical
system issues
Quickly and
easily pinpoint
root cause of
a problem
z/OS System CPU1
Large global financial services organization
needs made aware of production IT problems
immediately so they can swiftly identify root cause, take
action and mitigate impacting events.
1 The real cost of downtime, Alan Shimel, February 11, 2015

“Performance insights in near real time
are spectacular.”
“We reduced time to analyze cause of
issue from hours to minutes.”
“Test is one thing, being able to see in
production provides the real insights."
A large gas supplier providing natural gas to 1.8 million customers needs
to be made aware of production IT problems immediately so they can
swiftly identify root cause, take action and mitigate impacting events.
5X Improvement in
Resolution Time
CHALLENGES:
• Being notified after a customer is
impacted is too late.
• Static thresholds yield too many
false positives and cause a lot of
unnecessary churn to investigate.
SOLUTION:
Intelligent operations and automation:
• CA Mainframe Operational Intelligence
• CA SYSVIEW® Performance Management
• CA Vantage™ Storage Resource Manager
• CA OPS/MVS® Event Management and Automation
