Mainframe data management
Simplify data management and minimize the business impact of data errors.
Contact usIn the demanding world of business it is essential to have solutions that allow you to correct production data errors quickly, yet safely, and to reformat and process files in batch applications with ease.
It is also important to create test data that accurately reflects the complexities and variations of the live environment. Costly production failures can occur if the data used for application testing does not cover all real-world scenarios.
InSync® from Macro 4
Macro 4’s InSync® solution provides extensive data manipulation facilities to help you find and fix data errors faster, in both production and test environments. This includes full audit reporting for data held in z/OS files, Db2 and IMS databases and WebSphere MQ.
A key capability of our solution is a comprehensive batch processing language, designed for manipulating data in production batch applications. This makes it easy to copy, extract, convert, reformat and validate application data. It also gives you the flexibility to write your own fully tailored batch data manipulation processes.
Additionally, our solution delivers highly sophisticated management of application test data, which is essential for the efficient development of reliable applications. This includes the facility to quickly extract production data and disguise it for use in test environments, to meet your data privacy obligations. You can also automatically generate large volumes of data from scratch using business rules. These methods allow you to test applications more thoroughly, using realistic data, while protecting sensitive information and complying fully with data privacy regulations.
Working with Macro 4 you can:
Increase developer productivity and resolve errors faster by simplifying and standardizing data manipulation tasks
Save time by using a simple yet powerful batch procedural language for complex data manipulation rather than traditional programming languages
Automate audit reporting to keep track of updates to data in production environments and meet your regulatory requirements
Complete rigorous testing in shorter timescales by quickly generating data that meets all possible conditions in the live environment
Use our Data Privacy feature to anonymize test data, ensuring compliance with data protection laws
