Enterprise Performance Strategies, Inc. Introduces its2025 z/OS Performance Education Schedule

Enterprise Performance Strategies is announcing our 2025 schedule for z/OS performance education – both workshops and webinars. At EPS, education is a pillar of our organization. Sharing years of knowledge and expertise is a passion of both technical experts Peter Enrico and Scott Chapman. We are pleased to announce our 2025 Education Schedule and hope you will think of us for your educational journey.

Starting with our high-value, in-depth, and interactive workshops, we have three scheduled for this year. All workshops give attendees the opportunity to work with their own data and environment during class, an invaluable experience.

WLM Performance and Re-evaluating Goals, taught by Peter Enrico and being held May 12 – 16, 2025, will give students a deeper understanding of WLM functions and abilities. During class time, students will examine how and when to re-evaluate goals over time, as well as learn how to monitor, tune, and control how WLM manages their workload.

July 15 – 16, 2025 will feature our Parallel Sysplex and z/OS Performance Tuning workshop, also taught by Peter Enrico. Throughout class, attendees will master how to measure, monitor, and tune coupling facilities and structures. This class will also review the basic concepts of XCF, Parallel Sysplex, and data sharing. 

Led by Scott Chapman, our Essential z/OS Performance Tuning workshop takes place September 22 – 26, 2025. Students will explore the metrics and practices necessary to measure, understand, and improve z/OS system performance. Attendees will leave with the ability to explain and tune workload performance and obtain a solid foundation of knowledge about the factors driving performance and capacity in mainframe z/OS environment.

We have condensed beneficial information into these workshops to help students leave with not only the knowledge of these concepts, but actual tasks related to their day-to-day work to improve their organization’s mainframe performance. Each registration also includes a follow-up review to review changes the student may have made and the current performance of their environment.

To round out our educational opportunities, we have an exciting webinar schedule for 2025. As webinars are planned, our schedule is continuously updated.

Upcoming topics include latent demand, SMF 98 records, processor consumption, popular transaction measurements, the future of z/OS performance with AI, and more! 

We hope you can join us for interactive and in-depth education this year!
