Using IBM DB2 BLU V11.1 for SAP BW - High Scalability and Performance Improvements

Karl Fleckenstein and Brigitte Blaeser, IBM Deutschland R&D GmbH, IBM Employee

In this session, we will give an overview how the new DB2 V11.1 BLU technology extensions are seamlessly integrated into SAP Business Warehouse (SAP BW). Very fast SAP BW query processing on very large BW objects with billions of records is the major benefit of DB2 BLU for SAP BW. Among the highlights, we will demonstrate how the new BLU MPP option allows large SAP BW system scalability. We will show that the usage of new DB2 V11.1 OLAP functions allows additional function push-down from the SAP BW application server into the DB2 database server. This improves SAP BW query performance up to many factors. Finally, learn best practices to run SAP BW on DB2 V11.1 most efficiently.

IBM Data Server Manager in a diverse user environment

Ben Lenard, Argonne National Laboratory , Client

In most corporate organizations, Windows is the dominant platform for developers, DBAâ€™s, System administrators, and users. At Argonne National Laboratory, the desktop OS'es range from Mac, SLES, Ubuntu, RHEL, Debian, and Windows. That being said, I arrived in an environment where developers and users either solely used the DB2 CLI or they were forced into running Windows within a VM so that they can use IBM Data Studio. IBM DataServer Manager has allowed me to engage the developers and users so that we can get the most benefit out of our DB2 LUW investment while producing better code. DSM has allowed me to create a self-service environment so that developers can understand their code.
