Triton Consulting and SMT Data Announce Mainframe Partnership

Triton Consulting and SMT Data have announced a partnership, one that puts advanced mainframe analytics alongside deep Db2 expertise in the same room, working on the same problems.

Those problems will be familiar to anyone running enterprise mainframes: costs that are hard to explain, performance that’s difficult to pin down, and modernisation plans that never quite get off the ground.

SMT Data provides continuous operational monitoring through its ITBI™ platform, analysing SMF and system metrics across Db2 and mainframe environments to surface performance issues, patterns of instability, and resource inefficiencies. The platform is fully hosted, ISO/IEC 27001 and SOC 2 Type II certified, and designed to deliver value quickly without placing additional demands on internal teams.

Triton Consulting brings over 30 years of Db2 expertise and a team that includes multiple IBM Gold Consultants and IBM Data and AI Champions. Working across the full Db2 ecosystem, Triton translates performance data into concrete action, whether that’s architecture improvements, workload optimisation, resilience planning, or modernisation into hybrid cloud environments.

Together, the two organisations cover the full picture: SMT Data provides the data; Triton works out what to do with it.

“Most of our customers aren’t short of mainframe data. What they need is someone to help them make sense of it. That’s really what this partnership is about and we’re looking forward to working with SMT Data to do exactly that.” Gareth Copplestone-Jones, Triton Consulting.

The partnership focuses on four key areas that enterprises often find challenging: performance optimisation, resilience and availability monitoring, visibility in Db2 data sharing, and control of mainframe costs. Joint engagements will typically begin with an operational assessment, giving organisations a clear view of where improvements can be made and what the likely impact will be.
