A New Force in Data Modernization
A new era of data modernization is emerging — one defined by speed, simplicity, and scale. Together, Ocient and VirtualZ Computing form a new force in enterprise data innovation, uniting hyperscale analytics and no-code data access to help organizations turn complex, high-volume data into real-time insight.
Two Technologies, One Vision
Ocient delivers a hyperscale data warehouse designed for always-on, compute-intensive workloads. It consolidates multiple systems and workloads into a single, high-performance environment capable of analyzing trillions of records in seconds.
VirtualZ Computing provides a suite of no-code, cross-platform data access and movement solutions — including PropelZ™, FlowZ™, Lozen™, and Zaac™ — that connect mainframe and enterprise systems to modern platforms and applications without replication or complex integration projects.
Together, Ocient and VirtualZ deliver end-to-end data modernization solutions that make it possible for organizations to integrate, analyze, and act on massive datasets in real time.
“Ocient and VirtualZ together deliver powerful, end-to-end solutions that turn complex, high-volume data into real-time insight.”

Why This Partnership Matters
Organizations running business-critical workloads on IBM Z and other enterprise systems face the same challenge: valuable data is often locked in silos, disconnected from modern analytics and AI initiatives. Traditional approaches require heavy data movement, complex ETL pipelines, or duplication — all of which slow down innovation.
By combining VirtualZ’s direct, secure data access with Ocient’s hyperscale analytics engine, customers gain the ability to:
- Integrate data across platforms: With PropelZ, access mainframe, cloud, and enterprise data sources through a single, unified view.
- Automate and orchestrate workflows: Use FlowZ to build governed data pipelines and hybrid workflows that connect systems and AI platforms in real time.
- Enable real-time access and write-back: Lozen provides live, read/write access between IBM Z and modern platforms without data replication.
- Modernize mainframe storage: Zaac connects IBM Z applications directly to cloud storage, enabling on-demand, scalable storage at lower cost.
- Analyze at hyperscale: Run real-time analytics and AI workloads against massive datasets in seconds using Ocient’s high-performance environment.
- Simplify operations: Eliminate redundant systems and data pipelines while improving governance and performance.
- Accelerate outcomes: Move from data to insight faster, enabling teams to act on opportunities as they happen.
From Data Movement to Business Momentum
The combined value of Ocient and VirtualZ extends beyond technology. It represents a new way of thinking about modernization — one focused on speed, simplicity, and impact. Customers can now modernize data access and analytics simultaneously, without waiting for costly and time-consuming migrations to finish.
Whether the goal is AI model training, fraud detection, regulatory compliance, or operational intelligence, the Ocient + VirtualZ solution enables enterprises to make decisions with confidence and agility.
Modernization Without Disruption
At its core, this partnership reflects a shared belief: modernization shouldn’t require disruption. Enterprises can maintain the stability and security of their existing systems while gaining the agility and scalability of modern analytics platforms.
With Ocient and VirtualZ, organizations can:
- Extend the value of legacy data and applications
- Unify insight across hybrid environments
- Reduce cost and complexity
- Enable innovation at scale
