IMS/DB is a Database Management System

A Database– is a collection of interrelated data items, stored once and organized in a form

for easy retrieval.

A Database Management System – is a collection of programs for storing, organizing, selecting, modifying, and

extracting data from a database.

IMS DB is organized hierarchically– To optimize storage and retrieval – To ensure integrity and recovery A

IMS Hierarchic Access Methods

Basic: Access Method is Transparent to Program– HSAM: Hierarchic Sequential– HISAM: Hierarchic Indexed Sequential– HDAM: Hierarchic Direct– PHDAM: Partitioned Hierarchic Direct– HIDAM: Hierarchic Indexed Direct– PHIDAM: Partitioned Hierarchic Indexed Direct

Specialized: z/OS-compatible – SHSAM: Simple Hierarchic Sequential– SHISAM: Simple Hierarchic Indexed Sequential– GSAM: Generalized Sequential

Fast Path:– DEDB: Data Entry Database


Hierarchic Summary

Which IMS access method ?

Identify the type of processing for each database

– Direct

– Sequential

– Both

The "volatility" of the data

The "variability" of the database record length

IMS HALDB Highlights

Database types– PHDAM - partitioned HDAM– PHIDAM - partitioned HIDAM

• Index is also partitioned– PSINDEX - partitioned secondary index

Hierarchic structure is maintained– A database record resides in one partition

Partition selection– By key range or by user exit routine

...


HALDB - What Is It?

Large Databases– Databases are partitioned

• Up to 1001 partitions per database• Partitions have up to 10 data set groups• Partition definition separated from database structure definition

High Availability Databases– Partition Independence

• Allocation, authorization, reorganization and recovery by partition– Self-Healing pointers

• Reorganization of partition does not require changes to indexes or logically related databases which point to the partition

Partitioned Database Data Sets– PSINDEX

• 1 data set - secondary index data set– PHDAM

• 2 minimum/11 maximum - 1 for data, 1 for indirect list data set– PHIDAM

• 3 minimum/ 12 maximum - 1 for data, 1 for indirect data set, 1 for primary index data set


IMS HALDB Partitioning Options

Two methods of partitioning– Key range

• Each partition is assigned a range of root segment keys

– Partition Selection Exit routine• The exit routine assigns a root segment to a partition based on its key

0 - 1000 1001 - 2000 2001 - 3000 9001 - 9999...

IMS Open Database

Comparison of programming approaches for accessing IMS:


OpenStandards

Scenario

Accessing IMS data through TCP/IP from a non-Java application that resides on a distributed non-z/OS platform or a z/OS platform that is on a different LPAR from the IMS subsystem.

Accessing IMS data through TCP/IP from a Java application (non-J2EE) that resides on a distributed non-z/OS platform or a z/OS platform that is on a different LPAR from the IMS subsystem.

Accessing IMS data through TCP/IP from a J2EE application that resides on a distributed non-z/OS platform or a z/OS platform that is on a different LPAR from the IMS subsystem.

Approach

Use your language of choice to issue DRDADDM commands

Use the type-4 JDBC driver or the DL/I for JavaAPI

Use the JCA 1.5-compliant IMS distributedDB resource adapter


Solution highlights – IMS Connect and ODBM

IMS Connect– TCP/IP endpoint for type 4 connectivity– Authentication engine for type 4 connectivity– Focal point for two phase commit for type 4 connectivity– Proxies one phase commit requests to ODBM

Open Database Manager (ODBM)– Processes type 4 database requests– Processes type 4 one phase commit requests– Authorization engine (via ODBA) for database access– Processes type 2 database requests when using ODBM compatibility for ODBA

• Compatibility mode will allow ODBA to proxy requests to an ODBM address space on the same LPAR

IMS Enterprise Suite 1.1 – Business Value Provided

Solution Statement– IMS Enterprise Suite is a single product offering that provides

• Consistent installation and service process for select IMS SOA offerings,• Means for isolating offerings that contain open source.

Business Value– Part of IMS simplification strategy – simplifies installation and maintenance of select

IMS SOA offerings – First step in helping customers improve their development productivity by shifting

focus from maintenance to application development.

Challenge Addressed– Several components require open source code which customers have to personally

obtain and keep isolated from their IMS systems and other high value, business critical systems


Graphical User Interface (GUI)

– Leverage Eclipse, Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) and Graphical Editor Framework (GEF)

– Can be installed as a stand-alone function or on top of other Eclipse based products (i.e. RAD 7.5, RDz 7.5, Data Studio) using IBM Installation Manager

IMS Database Visualization Tool

– User can visualize an entire IMS PSB and DBD in a multi-page graphical editor.• Each PCB can be viewed, saved and printed individually. Each PCB editor shows

the IMS DB hierarchy with the segments, fields, field types, etc.– User can also search an entire IMS PSB for a specific PCB, segment, or field.

The Message

IMS continues to be a premier server with architected standard interfaces– New products and tools from a variety of vendors provide access to IMS transactions

and data

SOA is revolutionizing the way businesses are being designed and run. For it to make sense:

– All assets must be easily accessible in a standard way– All data must be represented and manipulated in a standard way

Our goal is to leverage IMS Database Manager as an integral part of the enterprise in the evolving business world through

– Addition of support for complimentary standards surrounding IMS data connectivity, data representation, and application development

And to allow you to realize the promises of building a Service Oriented Architecture:– Simplify the business environment– Respond to market changes more quickly and cheaply


Grow your IMS Business and Protect Investment

How to add new or expand existing IMS applications and IMS data?– Target LOB applications architects & management

•Today awareness of “SOA-ing” IMS applications with this audience is nil– Publicize success stories internally

Back to IMS and z/OS basics messages– Superior performance, bulletproof reliability– Don’t risk your business by moving off IMS– Value proposition:

•Growing transaction workload grows your revenue!•More gateway on the LOB business logic and business data•Drive demand for new function, justify V to V upgrades
