An application-centric view is critical to prevent issues from affecting systems and users.

Instana can help you avoid these challenges by providing observability into IBM z/OS with the same advantages Instana uses in the cloud: automatic continuous discovery of application and infrastructure components, measurements in one-second increments, storing every trace, and automatic context for application data.
