Course Summary

FAQs

IBM created the Db2 family of data management tools, which includes database servers. Although it was originally designed to serve the relational model, it has now been expanded to include object-relational functionality as well as non-relational structures like JSON and XML.

You can realize the benefits of using Db2 Multisystem in several ways:

Query performance can be improved by running in parallel (pieces of the query are run simultaneously on different systems).

The need for data replication decreases because all of the systems can access all of the data.

Much larger database files can be accommodated.

Applications are no longer concerned with the location of remote data.

When growth is needed, you can redistribute the file across more systems, and applications can run unchanged on the new systems

In October 2000, IBM released z/OS, a 64-bit operating system for mainframes using the z/Architecture. [2] It is a descendant of OS/390, which was preceded by a series of MVS versions, and it is OS/390's successor. [NB 1] The z/OS operating system, like OS/390, integrates a variety of formerly distinct, related products, some of which are still optional. Because z/OS is built for backward compatibility, it incorporates many of the features of more recent operating systems while also keeping much of the older functionality that dates back to the 1960s and is still in use today.
