Mainframe operating systems produce A LOT of performance data. It isn't enough to look at screens and reports anymore. Data can be produced for use with visualization tools like Grafana and Dynatrace. These tools are becoming more and more important for performance data display. We will show how these tools can be integrated into your existing performance management landscape. Sending data to InfluxDB, Prometheus, and OpenTelemetry will also be discussed.
