You can use IBM z Operational Log and Data Analytics (ZLDA) and Z Common Data Provider to tail zFS files and z/OS datasets in near real time including those used for Application logging.
For enterprises with hybrid applications that include IBM Z, detecting and determining the root cause of hybrid application issues has grown more difficult with rising costs, skill shortages, and changing user patterns. IBM Z Operational Log and Data Analytics, based on the data streaming capabilities provided by Z Common Data Provider and the data insights known from IBM Z Operations Analytics, provides a single solution that helps to accelerate the mean time to identify incidents and provide a hybrid application view of your IBM Z data. It streams IBM Z operational data in near real time to one or more analytics consumers. In addition to enterprise log analytics platforms like Splunk and Elastic Stack, other data consumers, Apache Kafka, Humio, and others. https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/z-logdata-analytics/5.1.0?topic=overview -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Frank Swarbrick Sent: Wednesday, June 7, 2023 1:08 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Kafka Ah, I should have known I'd get a "systems" answer.
