LFSentinel is a suite of intelligent discovery tools for
mainframe
installations running z/OS and
MVS operating systems.
It delivers decision-support intelligence for large projects as well as for
everyday challenges, including
·
structure and usage of applications
·
impact of a change on the enterprise
·
testing requirements for a group of elements.
LFSentinel obtains its core knowledge by scanning applications
and their supporting infrastructure.
The knowledge is stored in a web-based server and accessed with a standard Internet browser.
The scanning is fast and can be scheduled at anytime.
The intelligence generated can be profiled at different
functional or hierarchical levels in a number of views including
graphical trees
,
flowcharts
, and
statistical summaries
.
Due to extensive time and resources, research is compromised today, leading to false starts and implementation errors.
With
LFSentinel, the time is reduced from days/weeks to minutes, which results in an estimated
20% productivity
increase.
Its thorough documentation
enables the development of solid test plans,
minimizing the time
spent chasing errors.
LFSentinel can be up and running in less than two weeks: one week for enterprise review and the second week for deployment and analysis.
