About V-Source

What is V-Source?

Outsourcing has become a way of life in the I.T. community.  Outsourcing allows a company to send pieces of their operation to specific "expertise" firms for processing.  These firms are experts in usually one area of technology allowing them to solve unique problems for their clients.  More often than not, these are problems which would take the client unacceptable amounts of time, man power and money to resolve.

By outsourcing pieces of their business, smart firms do more business faster and cheaper with a high degree of technological expertise, which elevates the business to a place in a higher stratum. 
VSAM is just such a technology that is not understood today, i.e., a high degree of expertise does  not exist anymore.  Of all of the areas within most organizations which cost the company money in wasted MIPS, DASD Utilization, CPU Cycles, VSAM is the most neglected! 

The Problem is solved by using V-Source!

V-Source is the dedicated expert in that slice of the technological arena called VSAM.  We cover all of the technologies under the VSAM umbrella including IMS, DB2, CICS, JCL, Systems software files, Catalogs, etc.  What most do not realize is that VSAM is the underlying platform for all of these technologies. 

V-Source can analyze and develop improvements for all your VSAM

HOW?  
●  The Client sends CPSI their definition library(s) along with a set of listcats.

●  We create new definitions in the correct format with updated tuning numbers incorporated and place them into the customers library(s).  These performance tuned libraries are then returned to the client for testing and implementation. 

●  This can be done for 2-3-4 years on a regular basis keeping your VSAM products operating at peak efficiency and cost effectiveness.

Because we create a new performance-updated data file, accuracy is 100%.  There is no need for in-house staff to sit, wade through and implement changes.  The only obligation is for the staff to test and then replace the old definitions with the new.

The project time frame, from the start to the time the customer begins to realize cost savings can be as short as two (2) weeks.
Risk is a non-issue because cpsi guarantees accuracy and results!
