Every IT shop is coping with the pressure to lower operating costs—through CPU cycle reductions, general performance improvements or other methods—and yet still build and maintain a strong database foundation for SOA and XML initiatives that are increasingly common. How can you lower overall MIPS usage and still support sustained business growth?
Join us for this complimentary teleconference and learn what’s coming in DB2® X for z/OS® to support your staff and your business. Database administrators (DBAs) will find improvements in database performance, scalability and availability, with many tasks simplified. Memory management has been dramatically reduced, making growth a much simpler process. DBAs will also get more flexible security to help with regulatory compliance. A wide range of enhancements improve ERP application and data warehouse functionality and performance. The second release of pureXML® serves application developers with improvements the SQL and XML interface to access XML data stored in a native format.
We’ll discuss these major enhancements and more, including:
- Ease of porting across multiple platforms with improved SQL and data definition compatibility with other DB2 platforms
- Improvements in large object performance and flexibility
- Near-linear scalability for mission critical SAP, ERP and CRM requirements
- New XML helps minimize the time and effort it takes to persist and use XML data
