Enhancing Mainframe Performance with TurboTune

TurboTune operates at the file level, focusing on optimizing file behavior to drive system resource utilization and mainframe performance improvements. By implementing a “best practices” methodology and adjusting file attributes accordingly, TurboTune significantly reduces system workload and enhances overall performance.

The impact of TurboTune’s optimizations is profound, with noticeable reductions in resource demand ranging from 5% to 30% or higher. These reductions translate into decreased MIPS, MSUs, CPU, I/O, and EXCP activity, thereby minimizing the need for additional engines, footprint, and DASD space/volumes. Improved mainframe performance leads to enhanced online response times, shorter batch run times, and increased end-user productivity.

In a relatively short timeframe, TurboTune can outline solutions to reduce your operational costs by upwards of 30% annually—every year moving forward. Moreover, the TurboTune process is enduring and seamlessly migrates to upgraded hardware when your firm is ready.

Critical Path Software goes beyond mere identification of issues; we delve into root causes, enhance buffering mechanisms, alleviate contention between files (in LSR buffer pools and/or batch JCL), and optimize various other conditions, including program code. Our journey begins with a MAINFRAME ASSESSMENT.

TurboTune stands out as the only predictive monitor in the mainframe space. While traditional monitors identify issues and pinpoint their current locations, TurboTune goes further by identifying necessary file improvements while operating entirely outside your mainframe environment. This approach eliminates any risk to your system, ensuring a seamless optimization process with guaranteed results.
