Mainframe modernization architecture at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
AI-driven monitoring has transformed batch anomaly detection and improved mainframe performance
BMC AMI Data monitors technical components very well, but end-to-end business transaction tracing is still limited. For instance, the flow of business transactions from order creation to generation of the ASN is limited. I would say it would be great if cross-system business flow visibility were improved. Moreover, I would say stronger AI root cause accuracy is needed. Current AI capabilities are useful but still heavily rule-based in many environments. I would also suggest having a somewhat easier UI for better user experience, as it remains operational heavy, menu-driven, and less intuitive for new engineers. Cleaner dashboards, drill-down visualizations, interactive topology maps, and easier search or filtering would be beneficial. Additionally, better cloud and hybrid visibility along with native event-driven monitoring would improve the solution. I feel there are still some features that need improvement. Particularly, business cross-functional visibility and cross-systems visibility need enhancement.

Developers have benefited from flexibility and performance but pricing has needed further attention
I am only familiar with databases and applications. I am from the development team and I am a user of database and cloud but I don't know the infrastructure. As a user, I deal with the Oracle Database. I know the organization has a license with the product. We don't utilize real-time analytics with MongoDB Atlas. I don't use MongoDB Atlas directly, so I don't know how it can be improved. I would place MongoDB Atlas at a medium level. I would rate it at a six or seven. I believe MongoDB Atlas can improve a little. My overall review rating for this product is six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"I have reduced a lot of incident failures since using BMC AMI Data, am able to see a significant improvement in CICS transactional response times and overall region health, and have stopped the storage violations, transactional bottlenecks, and task buildups that I faced earlier, with this improvement very visible in my high-volume real-time environments."
"BMC AMI Data has had a positive impact on my organization by improving the visibility and reliability of our mainframe."
"BMC AMI Data has positively impacted my organization as the data's performance is faster, reduced the storage cost through optimization, automatically diagnosed the problems, and resolved them accordingly."
"BMC AMI Data has positively impacted the organization because it saved time and reduced errors."
"In my previous company, the product allowed us to build a database in a highly regulated environment with the ability to get distributed storage, and we used MongoDB as a distributed storage to set up this environment for a critical business application with millions of dollars."
"The solution has a very intuitive user interface."
"It is nice because our developers create tables whenever they need to sync data."
"MongoDB Atlas is a database that is quite fast, stable, and reliable."
"It's flexible. We don't need to have a solid upstream availability failover, and everything is seamless in Atlas."
"It is a great product."
"The product is user-friendly."
"MongoDB Atlas is our primary database, and we prefer this because of the reliability of MongoDB Atlas."
 

Cons

"BMC AMI Data monitors technical components very well, but end-to-end business transaction tracing is still limited."
"I think there is nothing to be improved in BMC AMI Data, but I believe from the customer service point of view, it should be more convenient rather than mailing and waiting for twenty-four hours to get a response."
"BMC AMI Data could be improved in backup timing, as it should be faster compared to the current situation."
"I have had a good experience but there are a few improvements. The user interface feels a bit outdated compared to modern monitoring tools."
"We had some edge cases where scalability was an issue where a node went offline, and we had to deal with that."
"MongoDB Atlas should add more APIs in their Terraform module because sometimes I find it difficult to find the resources in their Terraform model."
"The UI can be difficult to understand."
"There are some features that could be useful for the customers I work with, which are related to migration from on-prem to the cloud."
"An area for improvement in MongoDB Atlas is that it does not support individual or personal database backup, though it supports cloud cluster backup."
"Customer support needs improvement knowledge-wise."
"MongoDB Atlas should support containerization."
"The initial configuration fine-tuning for performance can be time-consuming."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We're currently using the Atlas for the night and don't require a license. However, it can be a problem if you want to use their enterprise environment. Then you need to purchase the license."
"The price of MongoDB Atlas is highly expensive to use and maintain. They are taking advantage of the users with such a high price."
"The purchasing process through the AWS Marketplace was very good."
"The tool is free since it's an open-source product."
"MongoDB Atlas is more cost-effective than Amazon DocumentDB. It also has a pay-as-you-go pricing model. Apart from the standard licensing cost, you must also pay to get MongoDB Atlas technical support, which is expensive."
"The pricing is acceptable for enterprise tier."
"In my previous company, the product allowed use to build a database in a highly regulated environment with the ability to get distributed storage. We used MongoDB as a distributed storage to set up this environment for a critical business application with millions of dollars."
"For our service, it was around 300 to 600 euros per month, which was acceptable for our customers."
