Ironstream
Fully integrate IBM Z® mainframe and IBM® i systems into your IT security, analytics and services management platforms for enterprise-wide observability and effective, responsive operations management.
Protect your business with comprehensive, real-time visibility
In today’s complex landscape of infrastructure and apps, a single security breach or service outage can bring your entire business to a standstill. It is critically important to be able to constantly monitor operations and instantly respond to events across all your complex, hybrid cloud and on-premise environments.
Increasingly interdependent, multi-stack IT architectures, combined with rapidly evolving IT management tools and applications, can strain your ability to effectively manage your IT operations and security management platforms. The challenge is even greater when your business relies on IBM Z mainframes and IBM i systems.

Achieve comprehensive enterprise visibility
IBM Z mainframe and IBM i machine data types and formats are not only unique and diverse, they are also protected by deeply integrated IBM security structures. Developing and maintaining your own tools and APIs to access, transform, and ingest IBM machine data into your ever-growing and evolving set of IT analytics platforms is rarely a viable or sustainable strategy.
Ironstream enables you to easily integrate and correlate IBM mainframe and IBM i machine data with machine data from across your organization, enabling truly comprehensive, real-time visibility into your entire IT infrastructure and operations. Ironstream captures, transforms and delivers the full range of IBM log data, system event, and security information into all the leading security, analytics and operations management platforms.
Ironstream for ServiceNow®
You rely upon ServiceNow for powerful and inclusive services and operations management. Its unified platform replaces disconnected tools and empowers your IT teams to work smarter and more effectively to keep your business running.
Ironstream fully integrates IBM Z mainframe and IBM i systems into ServiceNow so you can realize the full potential of the platform.
Ironstream supports IT Operations Management visibility to auto-populate an accurate and service-aware CMDB, providing a single source of truth. Ironstream also integrates with ServiceNow Event Management so you can reduce event noise and resolve service issues fast.
Ironstream for Splunk®
Splunk’s powerful analytics and dashboards enable your business to manage IT operations, security, regulatory compliance, and more. However, Splunk does not natively support mainframe and IBM i systems, resulting in an unacceptable level of security and operational exposure.
Ironstream’s tight, out-of-the-box integration means seamless and secure delivery of event and security log data from these traditional IBM systems to Splunk in real time. Merge this information with machine data from across your infrastructure for unprecedented insights. No IBM Z mainframe or IBM i systems or coding expertise is required, making implementation fast and worry-free.
Ironstream brings the full range of critical mainframe and IBM i machine data sources into Splunk to support your strategic enterprise-wide initiatives.
