Banks and other financial institutions typically rely on IBM’s MQ messaging product to securely transfer high value payments or other critical messages.
MQ has been the de facto standard enterprise grade messaging product for over 15 years and is supported across 80+ platforms. It can be thought of as plumbing for your messaging.
Often financial organisations face very stiff consequences for failing to make payments on time. Missing payment cut-off deadlines by just a few hours can be very costly in both monetary terms and reputational damage. When the payments run into the hundreds of millions of dollars, overnight interest can cost the bank thousands of dollars.
Traditionally it has been difficult to monitor MQ and obtain detailed metrics from MQ around how the MQ infrastructure is performing – mainstream monitoring products provide little or no support for MQ objects.
Lamaxu solves these problems in a simple easy to use application that works in harmony with your existing monitoring setup.
Lamaxu’s wide support for the new breed of monitoring products such as Splunk, Solarwinds and AppDynamics means you can start monitoring MQ using your current monitoring setup without changing alerts, workflows, procedures or call-outs.
Lamaxu integrates with these products seamlessly and gives you dramatically better insight of what is going on within your MQ estate allowing MQ statistics and status information to be presented alongside your existing apps’ stats.
Lamaxu’s simple agentless deployment is supported across Linux, Windows and now mainframe — meaning that you can be rapidly up and running without installing any software on your MQ hosts – especially useful in sensitive production environments.
