A Look At Mainframe Innovation At Tech Field Day Extra At Share Cleveland 25

Tech Field Day, Thursday, August 14th, 2025

We're taking Tech Field Day Extra to the SHARE conference in Cleveland. On Tuesday, August 19, the team will host a full day of live-streamed sessions on LinkedIn, Techstrong TV, and our website, with recordings available afterward on YouTube for those unable to tune in live.

The day kicks off at 10:00 AM Eastern with Broadcom, showcasing the evolution from their core mainframe products to the WatchTower Platform. This transition offers customers a flexible path toward incremental observability, whether they choose to move quickly or adopt changes step-by-step. WatchTower unifies mainframe and distributed system data in one interface, combining alerting, machine learning, application profiling, and real-time streaming.

This integration enables teams to detect and resolve issues faster, optimize performance, and improve operational efficiency. Broadcom's presentation will highlight how the platform delivers measurable value, allowing organizations to adapt observability strategies to their unique priorities.
