Products Overview

Velocity Software strives to be the leader:

  1. Accurate data is critical for making business decisions. With accurate data down to the Linux application layers, even in an SMT environment, Velocity Software has provided accurate data for chargeback and capacity planning for those that manage their environments. Not even IBM has a solution for accurate application data in an SMT environment.
  2. Our data collection is extremely efficient which allows us to export data to any other application or dashboard - starting with MICS, SLR and MXG, continuing on to Grafana and Spunk - which has not been reproduced by any other vendor.
  3. Integrating data from z/VM, Linux, applications such as Oracle, PostGres, and OpenShift provides both an external and internal view into workloads that can only be provided by Velocity Software.

Product Summary:

  1. zVPS is the Velocity Product Suite. It includes components: zMON, zMAP, zWRITE, zVIEW and zVWS which provide performance management metrics and dashboards for all platforms and applications.
  2. zTUNE provides knowledge based analytics of your environment to resolve performance and configuration issues. zTUNE is an add-on component to zVPS.
  3. zVRM dynamically adjusts your environment to meet current worload requirements, minimizing the overhead associated with over-sized servers. zVRM is an add-on component to zVPS and requires zPRO.
  4. zPRO provides modernization of your platform, allowing users to create and manage their own servers. zPRO also provides APIs for many functions used by used tools such as Ansible without the complexity of the system management APIs provided by IBM (SMAPI). By providing standard system functions such as directory management, spool viewing/management and many other system programmer tools, zPRO will reduce your costs and streamline your operations.
