Learn how Broadcom's WatchTower Platformâ„¢ delivers unified observability across mainframe and distributed systems in this 14-minute conference presentation. Discover how this observability platform integrates data from diverse sources into a single interface, utilizing alerting, machine learning, application profiling, and real-time streaming capabilities to enhance troubleshooting, performance optimization, and operational efficiency. Explore how Broadcom builds upon their established mainframe tools by layering the WatchTower observability platform to streamline diagnostics and integrate across the enterprise, relieving operators and subject matter experts from navigating disparate systems by centralizing data for problem detection and resolution. Understand how the platform serves both traditional mainframe operators and modern Site Reliability Engineers (SREs), enabling end-to-end visibility from applications through to mainframe systems while integrating with popular observability tools like Datadog and Splunk. Examine how WatchTower expands legacy products such as SysView, NetMaster, OpsMVS, and MAT with new capabilities including data streaming, data visualization, role-based access, and topology mapping that enable automated correlation of events, targeted alerting with contextual insight, and improved collaboration between SREs and performance analysts. Learn about the incremental value approach that progressively adds toolsets to improve real-time observability and reduce mean time to resolution while maintaining access to native interfaces for deeper analysis, with enhancements available without additional licensing for existing Broadcom core product customers.
