Challenge:
SCANA wants to address the challenges posed by complex DB2 workloads and staff responsibilities. Managing the mainframe, and critical DB2 workloads, is complex and time consuming using traditional management tools and methods.

CA Mainframe Chorus, a new ground-breaking workspace innovation, offers an intuitive design, automation and embedded intelligence to appeal to their next generation mainframe staff while also providing potential productivity improvements to their mainframe experts.
Result:
The collaborative capabilities of CA Mainframe Chorus provides SCANA with an innovative way to potentially realize significant productivity benefits today, while shortening the on ramp for novice mainframe users and administrators and potentially leverage its existing IT staff to manage the mainframe in the future.
