Abstract

Abstract: This article explores the critical role of observability dashboarding in mainframe environments, focusing on the integration and support of modern observability tools. It examines the functionalities and benefits of leading solutions such as Prometheus with Grafana, Dynatrace, Datadog, AppDynamics, IBM Instana, and Checkmk, providing insights into how organizations can enhance their mainframe monitoring capabilities. The article emphasizes the significance of a multi-tool observability strategy, highlighting its advantages in flexibility, redundancy, and comprehensive coverage. Key benefits of effective observability, including proactive issue detection, downtime reduction, improved capacity planning, and enhanced security monitoring, are thoroughly discussed. The article also outlines best practices for implementing observability in mainframes, covering unified dashboards, standardized metrics, automation, training, and continuous improvement. By analyzing these tools and strategies, the research offers valuable guidance for organizations seeking to streamline their observability approaches, ultimately enhancing customer experience and operational efficiency in mainframe-dependent environments. This comprehensive examination of mainframe observability techniques provides a roadmap for leveraging legacy systems alongside cutting-edge monitoring solutions, addressing the evolving needs of modern IT infrastructures.
