INFORMATION CENTER:
Many companies recognize the benefits of data compression, but struggle to navigate the competitive market for this technology. This blog post explains why this capability is considered a critical database feature and compares several vendor offerings available. Find out how Oracle stacks up against IBM and explore the advantages of DB2.
SOFTWARE DOWNLOAD:
The move to IBM DB2 software is surprisingly easy due to new SQL compatibility features. And this e-kit makes it fast, because it's packed with technical resources, demos, DB2 software downloads and more. Begin taking advantage of the DB2 product's administration, performance and cost benefits today through this e-kit.
WHITE PAPER:
Application developers and DBAs looking to migrate databases due to cost concerns, staffing problems, or technology issues should consider this new database compatability layer option to mitigate risk, lower migration cost, and speed the migration process.
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:
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.
