In today’s episode of the AIOps Corner podcast, Executive Producer Mary Gorczynski goes rogue and interviews Wayne Bucek, Technical Sales Specialist, IBM Z AIOps, and MP Welch, Mainframe Performance Specialist for a Financial Institution. While at the AIOps Technical Council 2026 event, the 3 talk about MP’s success with IBM Z AIOps solutions including IBM Z Operational Log and Data Analytics and Common Data Provider. They discuss moving from correlated solutions for analytics, to the possibilities with IBM Concert for Z to eliminate the noise to deliver value faster. Beyond that they look towards progressing to a future focused on agentic AI with IBM watsonx Assistant for Z. MP tells us that “AI doesn’t have to be perfect, it just has to be better than HI (Human Intelligence)”.
