DATA SHEET:
DBAs can view the most active user sessions, SQL statements, locks, waits, and database activity to pinpoint and alleviate problem areas as they occur.
VIDEO:
DB2 automates many routine database administration tasks like database configuration, storage allocation, and memory management. Self-optimizing features automatically react to changes in workloads to adjust memory and optimize system performance. Watch this flash demo to learn why some are referring to DB2 as smarter database software.
TRIAL SOFTWARE:
IBM Data Studio provides an integrated, modular environment for productive administration of DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows, and collaborative database development tools for DB2, Informix, Oracle, and Sybase. View this page to get an overview of its components and download a trial of Data Studio with a free database, DB2 Express-C.
WEBCAST:
New compatibility features in IBM DB2 make the move from Oracle to DB2 easier than ever before. Hear from customers and IBM experts about their porting experiences.
WHITE PAPER:
This paper discusses how and why to design SQL that will reduce the number of times calls are made to DB2. We'll look at how to write SMART applications rather than writing applications that act like generic I/O modules to DB2, properly tune SMART SQL, and how to exploit SQL and application features in DB2 on z/OS version 8 and 9.
TRIAL SOFTWARE:
Many organizations are leveraging IBM’s DB2 for its cost and security benefits, as well as its ease of use. This resource introduces its new enhancements that further reduce storage costs and can lead to significant performance improvements. See firsthand what it can offer your organization by downloading this trial.
