Educational Seminar Details
"Using Views, RI and Other Stuff for Performance"
The DB2 optimizer has long been recognized for reliably finding the access path for the best response time for most SQL statements. With DB2 Version 8, this has been taken to new heights. Now with ever decreasing hardware costs, both memory and CPU, programming cost becomes more and more significant. Codd’s original 12 rules for relational data stressed the goal of separating program logic from specific data implementation. Now with DB2 version 8, that separation can be farther realized utilizing views, that can make programming easier and more productive, allow for changing data organization to optimize retrieval, and adjust the access path to the underlying data based on predicate data. This session will cover how to take advantage of these new capabilities to make application programmers more productive while enhancing query response time.
This seminar is appropriate for z/OS as well as the Linux, UNIX and Windows(LUW) platforms.
