i-Rays Showcases New Approaches to Combat High Impact, Low Probability (HILP) Events in IBM i Environments

i-Rays, an observability platform developed by Omnilogy, a global technology developer focused on the IBM i environment, today announced a new focus on protecting IBM i systems from High Impact, Low Probability (HILP) events. As businesses increasingly rely on IBM i for critical operations, the threat of rare but catastrophic system failures poses significant financial, regulatory, and reputational risks. i-Rays provides organizations with the proactive defense needed to ensure resilience in today’s complex IT landscape.

HILP events, characterized by their unpredictability and severe consequences, arise from intricate interactions within modern IT systems. Traditional risk management and monitoring tools often fall short in detecting the subtle precursors to these events, leaving organizations vulnerable. These events can manifest as unexpected cascading failures, originating from seemingly minor anomalies that amplify through tightly coupled systems. The impact can be devastating, leading to significant financial losses, regulatory non-compliance, and severe damage to customer trust.

“The cost of an HILP event can be devastating,” said Marek Walczak, GM of i-Rays. “For years, organizations have relied on robust infrastructure and traditional recovery methods. However, these are often insufficient when faced with the unique challenges of HILP events. i-Rays shifts the paradigm from reactive recovery to proactive prevention. By leveraging advanced behavioral intelligence and AI-driven anomaly detection, we provide our clients with the crucial foresight needed to identify and neutralize threats before they escalate into crises. This isn’t just about uptime: it’s about safeguarding the very future of their operations.”

By empowering organizations with early warnings and actionable insights, i-Rays enables proactive risk management, transforming the approach to system resilience. This allows businesses to not only mitigate the impact of inevitable failures but also to build a more robust and secure IBM i ecosystem, protecting them from the potentially catastrophic consequences of HILP events.
