Our complimentary seminar will show you many ways to take advantage of DB2 technology, including how to exploit its new features in your SOA implementations and extend the value of your data.
 |
| 9:00AM - DB2 and SOA today |
DB2® for z/OS® V8 supports a number of SOA capabilities, and this session will offer an update on how IBM customers are benefiting as they upgrade to V8 and fully exploit these rich functions.
|
| 10:10AM - Leveraging zIIP for DB2 workloads |
IBM announced its new zIIP specialty engine offering in mid-2006. The zIIP is designed to help process certain DB2 related tasks at a reduced software license and processor cost. In this session, we will explain how you can start making use of the zIIP and which workloads qualify for the zIIP. We will also provide some best practices on how to maximize the usage of the zIIP.
|
| 11:20AM - DB2 for z/OS evolution in an SOA world |
This presentation will provide an overview of trends and directions of DB2 on z/OS. Special attention will be given to SOA enablement, with the primary focus on DB2 9.
|
| 1:00PM - XML for DB2 on z/OS |
A great addition to DB2 on z/OS has been its support for XML. In this session we explain how to use XML with DB2 on z/OS and provide different usage scenarios, including how to leverage XML data in an SOA.
|
| 2:10PM - A brave new world: Accessing DB2 for z/OS data in an SOA |
DB2 data and stored procedures can be accessed via Web services, or via Java™ programs using JDBC™ or SQLJ. Come learn about the benefits of each of these technologies, along with tips on how to select the right method for your requirements, and best practices in the deployment of each.
|
| 3:20PM - DB2 tools update: The key to optimized DB2 environments and reduced TCO |
DB2 tools can help you streamline database administration, reduce complexity by providing autonomic features that add capability and minimize error potential, and preserve investment in z/OS applications – all factors that help reduce total cost of ownership. Learn how DB2 tools can help optimize your current DB2 environment, assist in migrating to DB2 Version 8, and prepare for DB2 V9. We’ll also look at how tools can help you meet auditing requirements, address regulatory compliance issues, improve recovery and performance, and enhance your change management process.

| 4:20PM - Wrap up |
During this session, the seminar speakers will be available to answer your questions.
