IT management software company CA and application quality management company AQM Solutions, have announced the integration of the Automated AQM product suite with CA Wily Introscope to help customers proactively maintain the end-to-end performance of critical business services running on mainframe and web infrastructures.

In addition, the companies announced a multi-year agreement under which CA will distribute Automated AQM, a comprehensive mainframe performance solution that proactively identifies potential application tuning opportunities before they become performance problems.

Markus Bauer, director of AQM Solutions, said mainframe performance specialists can find it difficult and time-consuming to precisely monitor and analyse the impact of web applications on mainframe workloads.

"The combination of Automated AQM and CA Wily Introscope simplifies this aspect of performance management by providing mainframe staffs with unified visibility into all relevant performance metrics," he said.

By complementing the deep mainframe performance insight provided by Automated AQM with CA Wily Introscope's J2EE, .NET, and SOA monitoring capabilities, the integration between the two companies' solutions enables mainframe specialists to quickly pinpoint performance issues and to take remedial action before critical service levels are affected.

Additionally, technicians can use the APC Performance Desktop to view the combined data from Automated AQM and CA Wily Introscope to detect and address inefficiencies that may be overtaxing CPU capacity and other resources, enabling them to reduce costs by making better use of existing infrastructure.
