Boost innovation and strengthen team morale

Boost innovation and team morale

Creating a superior developer experience requires providing an environment where developers can do their best work with minimal friction and maximum flow.

  • Streamlined IDEs allow developers to work in their preferred environments, so they can concentrate on building code rather than dealing with disjointed editing and deployment processes.

  • BMC AMI DevX Workbench for Eclipse and VS Code offers a consistent tooling interface that simplifies the onboarding process for new developers.

  • Develop, test, debug, promote, and deploy mainframe code within preferred environment, without context switching.

Automate for speed and efficiency

Automation and integration drive faster delivery and improved flow across your software pipeline. By automating manual processes and streamlining toolchains, teams can innovate quickly and deliver value faster.

  • Streamline approvals and coding workflows with BMC AMI DevX Code Pipeline, enabling concurrent development and faster releases.

  • BMC AMI DevX Code Insights provides developers with real-time visibility into the complex workings of mainframe applications, automatically extracting the logic of monolithic code into more manageable and callable subprograms.

  • BMC AMI Assistant uses generative AI to understand unfamiliar code swiftly, delivering clear explanations for COBOL, JCL, PL/I, and Assembler.

Fuel performance at scale with data-driven insights

Fuel performance at scale with data-driven insights

Application Development leaders can enhance customer satisfaction by using measurable quality metrics to mitigate risks and performance issues, refining the software development lifecycle. This approach helps them to address customer needs quickly with innovative solutions, all while maintaining high code quality and reliability.

  • With BMC AMI zAdviser Enterprise, utilize industry-standard DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) metrics and mainframe-specific KPIs to comprehensively understand your development effectiveness.

  • Drive continuous improvement in software delivery quality, velocity, and efficiency.

  • Take application performance measurements early and automatically in CI/CD pipelines with BMC AMI Strobe.
