BMC AMI DevX
BMC AMI DevX reimagines mainframe development by helping teams build better code with less friction, stronger flow, and a more modern developer experience. It unifies agile development, testing, debugging, promotion, and delivery in a mainframe-inclusive toolchain designed to support developers at every skill level. Teams can work directly in preferred environments such as Eclipse and VS Code, reducing context switching and simplifying onboarding for new developers. BMC AMI DevX helps streamline editing, build, source code management, approvals, and deployment through Code Pipeline, enabling concurrent development, faster releases, and more secure delivery. Code Insights gives developers real-time visibility into complex mainframe applications, helping visualize logic, dependencies, and monolithic code structures, while generative AI explanations support faster understanding of unfamiliar COBOL, JCL, PL/I, and Assembler code.

Telepresence
Telepresence streamlines your local development process, enabling immediate feedback. You can launch your local environment on your laptop, equipped with your preferred tools, while Telepresence seamlessly connects them to the microservices and test databases they rely on. It simplifies and expedites collaborative development, debugging, and testing within Kubernetes environments by establishing a seamless connection between your local machine and shared remote Kubernetes clusters.
Why Telepresence:
Faster feedback loops: Spend less time building, containerizing, and deploying code. Get immediate feedback on code changes by running your service in the cloud from your local machine.
Shift testing left: Create a remote-to-local debugging experience. Catch bugs pre-production without the configuration headache of remote debugging.
Deliver better, faster user experience: Get new features and applications into the hands of users faster and more frequently.
