IBM Tivoli Monitoring (ITM) provides an integrated solution with a single, consolidated graphical user interface, performance management data warehouse and a common reporting capability. In one customisable dashboard, views of environments ranging from Windows to Linux to Power Systems (AIX and i5/OS) to System z, or a middleware environment of databases, web and application servers to the application environments of home-grown applications and market leading applications such as SAP, PeopleSoft or Siebel.
The IBM Tivoli Monitoring framework is the basis of IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager (ITCAM). ITCAM helps organizations proactively identify slowdowns, rapidly perform accurate problem diagnosis and help the appropriate staff correct the problem.
One point of integration of systems management data is provided with the Tivoli Data Warehouse (TDW). The TDW enables consistent control of systems-management information across all the components that support your critical applications or services.

It provides a common desktop or browser client for cross-platform management.
Predictive analytics is provided by Tivoli Performance Analyzer (TPA), an integrated component of the ITM framework. TPA adds predictive capability to IBM Tivoli Monitoring, enabling focus on future performance issues by helping operations and IT staff to understand resource consumption trends, identify future problems, resolve problems quicker or even avoid them altogether.
Reports and input to management decisions using the included reporting subsystem Tivoli Common Reporting (TCR).
Real-time monitoring with historical context, prioritized information and an embedded knowledge base of built-in domain knowledge helps operators improve uptime and reduce MTTR.
Workflow automation and best practices replay automates common tasks allows the manual or automated handling of recurring problems, freeing up operator and expensive subject matter expert time, allowing them to focus on more critical tasks.
Scaleable to meet future business requirements with less cost and complexity, while its highly available configuration mean that the system is there when you need it most, in the event of system outages.
