IBM Application Runtime Expert for i
IBM Application Runtime Expert for i (ARE) simplifies the management of applications and their runtime environment. With today’s complex systems and software stacks, there are many things that have the potential to affect the performance and operation of an application. In order for your applications to deliver optimal performance and results for your end users, the application and its runtime environment must remain consistent. This can mean managing many different environment settings, files, directories, user authorities, property files, systems values, network settings, plus other system settings that directly effect your application. Learn how the ARE simple-to-use GUI interface automates the management of an application’s runtime environment. ARE can speed recovery from issues impacting your end users, improving service delivery and client satisfaction, while reducing the overall cost of application management.

Looking forward to meeting you at this exceptional event, we are thanking you in advance for your participation and address you, dear members and friends of COMMON, our best regards.
