 |  Do you need to lower data storage costs and reclaim disk space? - Are government compliance and auditing regulations requiring you to maintain more data than ever before?
- Is performance being impacted because data volumes are increasing?
- Are transactions timing out because there are too many records to search through?
- Is it getting too expensive to maintain growing data volumes?
- Do you need to archive data cross-platform?
Keeping production systems trim and responsive are key focuses for most DBAs in today's business environment, especially with regulatory compliance laws like Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) requiring that DBAs retain more data than ever before. DB2 Data Archive Expert, part of IBM's suite of regulatory compliance tools, helps you meet these requirements as well as improve the performance of your DB2 environment by enabling you to move seldom-used data to a less costly storage medium without additional programming. Customer Experiences "The combination of System z9 and DB2 Data Archive Expert has reduced the time it takes to run an average query up to 10 percent. The main advantages of the new solution are the increased speed of computation and the greater control over archived data. But we also expect considerable cost savings." -Judith Weigel, DB2 Administrator Stadtsparkasse Munchen |
- Discovers relationships between tables from definitional as well as access sources using the IBM DB2 Grouper Component, making it easy to include tables related to those being archived.
- Lets you move DB2 data to table or flat-file archives on either DASD or tape
- Archives sets of rows representing application objects, not just entire tables.
- Lets you write archive specifications only once and then automatically replicates the specifications from test to production systems.
- Using a Web-based interface, lets you access archived data cross platform on z/OS as well as Linux, UNIX and Windows (licensed separately).
- Automatically recognizes when a column has been added to a source table and updates the existing specification definition and the archive target tables after data has been archived.
- Helps you save storage space and the associated costs while adhering to regulatory compliance requirements.
- Available for DB2 on z/OS, Linux, UNIX and Microsoft Windows.
