Attend one of our free technical seminars to learn about the ongoing value of IBM DB2 software for the mainframe when you migrate to the latest versions DB2® has served your business well for many years – or even decades – but the market is continually moving forward. Are you prepared to move with it? Your technology should be able to address emerging business requirements such as stringent security and compliance demands, more virtual storage and continuous access to nearly unlimited data capacity – plus, have easier ways to manage it. If you have not already done so, now is the time to upgrade to DB2 for z/OS® Version 8 to take advantage of its value – and to get positioned for DB2 9. A successful upgrade can be yours when you understand the right steps.
Join us for this full-day seminar and you’ll see that upgrading to DB2 Version 8 or DB2 9 does not have to be risky, and it’s not as difficult as you might think. We will discuss the IBM DB2 Tools that can help you by building the baseline from which you can develop a migration plan. There will be plenty of hints and tips and findings based on customer experiences. You will also have a chance for direct communication with DB2 for z/OS development experts.
In addition to learning about new features in DB2 Version 8 and DB2 9, other topics to be covered include:
- Managing application workload growth and ways to reduce the cost of MIPS
- Addressing key issues with compatibility mode and new function mode
- Learning new ways to optimize the performance of DB2 and associated utilities
- Using high-volume transaction processing for the next wave of Web applications
- Understanding the hybrid data server that stores relational and pureXML™ data
Developed for: Technical professionals, including database technical management, database administrators, applications developers and systems programmers
