IMS XQuery and XML database

Available in replay for your convenience, register now.

Developed for: Application architects, database architects, database administrators, application development management and system programmers

Technical level: Intermediate - advanced

If your enterprise has been running for years or decades, it probably relies heavily on IMS™. After 38 years, IMS remains the premier transaction processing system. And now that most businesses are undertaking major modernization initiatives, there’s no question that IMS is simply too valuable to leave behind. With IMS 9 and IMS 10, you can integrate existing IMS data into the world of SOA and XML, and use these versions of IMS to natively manage new XML data.

Join us for this complimentary teleconference to explore how you can use IMS – with its 38 years of storing, managing, indexing and retrieving hierarchical data – and apply it directly to the field of XML databases. You’ll learn how new IMS on-demand technologies are enabling businesses to use previously existing or new IMS database and treat existing native IMS records as collections of valid XML documents – without changing them. We’ll also discuss the way IMS 10 further exploits XML technologies with the introduction of World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standard IMS XQuery support against IMS databases.

In this teleconference, you’ll see how to use the new functionality in IMS databases to help you:

  • Ease new application development and improve application management
  • Take advantage of the transparency IMS Transaction Manager provides to application programmers, while building on existing skills, applications and data
  • Improve environmental efficiency and reduce the costs associated with power, cooling and space

Speaker: Christopher Holtz, IMS XML Database and SOA Enablement Software Designer

This teleconference will also be available for replay after the event.
