Compuware Delivers Deep Mainframe Application Insight to Splunk’s Industry-Leading Operational Intelligence for Enterprise IT
- Splunk Enterprise collects and analyzes the wealth of data generated by enterprise IT environments so companies can much more effectively detect and resolve security and performance issues.
- Compuware Hiperstation for application auditing gathers deep insight into how applications are actually being used and records those activities, complementing Splunk and Splunk partners’ existing SIEM capabilities.
- By adding Compuware’s mainframe application auditing information to Splunk, enterprise IT can unify their security and compliance management efforts—and thereby achieve better results.
- Compuware’s auditing architecture is particularly efficient and customizable, so enterprises can gain the benefits of cross-platform insight with minimized processing overhead.
DETROIT, Jan. 05, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Compuware® is enabling enterprises to more effectively discover and resolve security and compliance issues across their large multi-platform IT environments by feeding mainframe application usage insight to Splunk® Enterprise.
Many large enterprises use Splunk Enterprise to capture and analyze the wealth of data generated by their computer systems, networks, storage devices, applications, and other IT resources. By quickly and automatically detecting patterns and anomalies in this “big data,” IT staffs can act much more responsively to address potential cyber-threats and operational issues.
Compuware is adding significant value to these Splunk deployments by capturing and delivering complete, accurate insight into who is accessing mainframe applications and exactly how they are using them.
This rich mainframe insight, captured by Compuware Hiperstation® for application auditing, enables enterprise IT organizations to unify and complete their Splunk Enterprise SIEM environments. With complete auditing data from all IT resources across all platforms, these organizations can much more effectively and efficiently:
- Discover and respond to behavioral anomalies that indicate a security event or exposure
- Correlate logs and other data for comprehensive compliance reporting
- Provide forensic evidence when called upon
“As long as IT is forced to continue treating the mainframe as an isolated operational silo, it will struggle with the inefficiencies and inaccuracies of fragmented SIEM,” said Compuware CEO Chris O’Malley. “By enabling IT to converge mainframe metrics into their broader multi-platform Splunk deployments, Compuware is eliminating this silo and empowering enterprise IT to substantially improve its security and compliance outcomes.”
Many mainframe application auditing solutions consume excessive processing resources. Some solutions are also difficult to implement and configure. The Compuware Hiperstation for application auditing data feed to Splunk is specifically designed to provide rich data inputs, while minimizing resource consumption and allowing for easy “fetch-and-filter” configuration by IT staff without extensive mainframe expertise.
IT security services firm mnemonic, a Splunk reseller with numerous certifications such as PCI DSS PCI Forensic Investigator, helped shape the data integration process with Compuware. According to co-founder Jorn Tore Hov, “Having the Compuware Application Auditing data available in Splunk, is an important step in protecting mainframe environments through the mnemonic Advanced Threat Defense platform Argus.”
Compuware announced the Splunk application auditing data feeding capability in conjunction with the introduction of Compuware’s ground-breaking strategy for transferring mainframe platform responsibilities from traditionally siloed mainframe management specialists to mainstream enterprise DevOps teams using popular, mainstream DevOps tools. Read the press release.

Open Data Center Alliance White Paper Addresses DevOps Organizational Philosophy
PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 4, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Open Data Center Alliance (ODCA) today published a whitepaper titled "DevOps: Magnifying Business Value" to address an evolution in the way companies plan, deploy and manage IT and operational investments and projects.
DevOps is a philosophy and concept intended to improve the process of software development and change management. By eliminating silos prevalent in traditional Development and Operations organizations, companies can build, test and release software, cloud applications or infrastructure changes more frequently and reliably.
The ODCA is addressing the DevOps concept because cloud applications, service providers and cloud service brokers are becoming more prevalent in IT and operations. Cloud tools can reduce the complexity of implementing a DevOps approach through automation of positioning, environment creation or deployments, to name a few.
To maximize benefits, a full DevOps implementation requires significant business backing and investment. Because there is no universal definition of or approach to DevOps, it is important that these implementations are carefully planned. Organizations should leverage best practices from previous adoptions of the approach with clear goals, well-defined strategy and active management of the plan.
"DevOps is simple because it focuses on the three concepts of speed, quality and innovation. Yet the execution can be challenging, because it centers on people, processes and tools," said Gunnar Menzel, president of the Open Data Center Alliance. "DevOps and cloud technologies are helping enterprises evolve from organizations to responsive organisms, and the ODCA is proud to contribute to the advancement of this important concept."Download DevOps White Paper
DevOps defines a set of roles and responsibilities focused on reducing risk in IT deployments and projects. By connecting development and operations, enterprise IT departments can begin to break down silos in order to:
- maximize automation;
- eliminate or significantly reduce human error;
- increase consistency; and
- reduce time spent on the outages, error detection and prevention caused by unstable environments
"DevOps: Magnifying Business Value" outlines the ODCA perspective on the DevOps concept, focusing on key challenges it can help resolve and the benefits it can provide.

12 technologies that died in 2015 @ PCWorld
With the dawn of the New Year it isn't uncommon to look back over the past 12 months and wonder what the heck happened and question the progress we have made.
PCWorld has posted an interesting article that says goodbye to some technologies that died in 2015. I argue that Radio Shack isn't really a technology but I am sad to see it go, mostly because there is no viable replacement (eg Frys) near me.
Some tech died quickly...some just faded away.
For every tech triumph in 2015, there was also a failure. A technology that fell to better competition (or bad luck). A company whose best products were behind it. A business model that simply didn't make sense anymore. Before we say hello to what 2016 might bring, let’s pause to remember notable products and services that died in 2015. (We define “dead” as a technology that ceased being produced or otherwise reached end of life. Rebrandings and “evolutions”—a la Google Glass—don’t count.)The one thing on the list that annoys me is the death of replaceable batteries. It's called forced obsolescence and a reaction to hardware getting so good that you don't have to replace it. Well, now you have a reason to.
