DB2 spatial extender chat on May 27

DB2 spatial extender chat on May 27


Theres an upcoming DB2 Chat with the Lab on Thursday May 27:
Leveraging Spatial Capabilities in your Database

Date: Thursday May 27, 2010
Time: 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM Eastern (GMT-04:00)
10:30 AM Central / 8:30 AM Pacific / 16:30 hrs London / 17:30 hrs Frankfurt, Paris / India 9PM
Presented By: Sal Vella (IBM), David Adler (IBM)

This chat introduces the spatial capabilities of IBM relational databases, focusing on the DB2 LUW Spatial Extender. Much of the business data that we work with has a spatial characteristic, such as customer or office locations, sales regions, hazard polygons or facilities such as utility lines and highways. By representing this spatial information in a relational table as spatial datatypes, SQL queries can incorporate spatial functions to perform spatial analysis in the database. Business value is derived by being able to answer questions like:
  • Where are customers who may be interested in buying flood insurance?
  • What are the patterns of high crime activity?
  • Should a new service center be constructed to support new customers?
  • Where are preferred service providers along a route I plan to take?
DB2 with the Spatial Extender is used to answer these questions.

DB2 chat for Oracle professionals defies signup limits

DB2 chat for Oracle professionals defies signup limits


On March 31, well be holding a DB2 Chat with the Lab aimed specifically at Oracle professionals curious about DB2 database server architecture. As you know, IBM DB2 9.7 introduced a thorough Oracle compatibility mode.

Almost immediately after we announced it, the event filled up completely. More people signed up than the webcast infrastructure allowed, and many had to be turned away.

To handle the extreme level of demand, weve now set up a parallel signup link:
DB2 and Oracle - An Architectural Comparison

Date: Thursday, March 31, 2011
Time: 12:30-2:00 PM Eastern / 11:30 AM Central / 9:30 AM Pacific / 17:30hrs London / 18:30hrs Frankfurt, Paris / India 10 PM

Many database professionals and DBAs often ask how DB2 and Oracle compare architecturally, that is, how they are different and similar at their core. They also ask what are the equivalent concepts, names, commands etc. in the other database system. This free webinar will answer those questions by covering the following topics in detail:

  • Server architecture comparison (e.g. instances and database model, process vs. thread)
  • Memory architecture comparison (e.g. Oracle SGA & PGA vs. DB2 instance, database and application memory)
  • Parameters, environment variables and registry variables
  • Database storage model comparison (e.g. table space types and layouts, compression approaches)
  • Basic database administration comparison (e.g. terminology, create database, start/stop, dictionary vs. system catalog, performance)
  • Compatibility mode for running Oracle applications with DB2

Attending this webcast would be valuable for you whether you are an Oracle professional and looking to learn more about DB2 (for Linux, Unix and Windows), or work in a heterogeneous environment and looking to expand your DBMS knowledge, or simply interested in enhancing your database skills for improving your career prospects.

DB2 Security chat on February 25


The next DB2 Chat with the Lab is on February 25th:
DB2 for LUW Security Primer

2010-02-25
11:30 - 13:00 EST (GMT-05:00)

This presentation will quickly refresh your understanding of the DB2 9.5 security capabilities and then bring you up to speed on the latest additions made in DB2 9.7 to help you better meet your regulatory compliance needs such as separation of duties and data-in-transit encryption.

You will learn how to:
1. vest security administration and database administration into two non overlapping roles;
2. prevent database administrators from accessing table data;
3. avoid granting users more privileges than what they need to perform their job tasks;
4. configure DB2 SSL to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of your data communications; and
