IBM zBNAC (System z Batch Network Analyzer) is a performance and planning tool that reconstructs and visualizes z/OS batch job flows using system measurement data. It helps operations teams, schedulers, and capacity planners understand dependencies across the batch network, identify critical paths and bottlenecks, and pinpoint where CPU, I/O, or dataset contention may be extending the batch window. With interactive charts and reports, zBNAC enables what-if analysis—such as changes in job sequencing, storage configurations, or the adoption of new z/OS and IBM Z features—so you can quantify the impact on elapsed time and service levels before making production changes. The result is data-driven optimization that reduces risk, shortens batch windows, and improves overall throughput and reliability for mission-critical workloads. Developer: IBM.
