Join IBM experts to learn about enabling your Oracle applications for DB2 9.7.
DB2 9.7 brought the biggest infusion of SQL features since DB2 V2.1. In this presentation, learn about features that lead to a ten-fold reduction in enablement costs when Oracle-based applications are enabled for DB2. The virtual tech briefing covers the following:
Business drivers to move Oracle applications to DB2
SQL enhancements in DB2 9.7
Tooling support to enable applications from Oracle to DB2
The agenda covers the full spectrum of information management and includes keynote sessions from leading IBM, customer, and business partner speakers. There are hands-on technical labs and industry round tables.
Our very own Julian Stuhler will be speaking at the Data Management keynote session on Wednesday 19th May at 15.15 CET. He will be on stage with Martin Wildberger, Vice President, Information Management Development. During the session Julian will be discussing his own personal technical experience and the experience Triton has had with DB2 9.7 and DB2 pureScale.

This video highlights some of the new features in DB2 9.7 that make it very easy to enable Oracle applications to DB2. It includes demos for features like support for PL/SQL, CLP Plus, the free IBM Data Movement tool, and Optim Development studio for debugging.
IBM has been making huge technical strides with their flagship database, DB2, over the past few years. As expected, the recent launch of DB2 9.7 has not failed to impress, incorporating even more improvements.
DB2 9.7, also known as the COBRA release, has made up significant ground on Oracle. The ease with which organisations are now able to migrate from Oracle to DB2 has been enhanced so dramatically that it is now an enticing option. Previously the time taken to migrate an Oracle-based application to DB2 would take weeks, if not months. This can now be achieved in a matter of days.

DB2 9.7 for Linux, Unix, and Windows has out-of-the-box support for Oracle’s SQL and PL/SQL dialects. This allows many applications written for Oracle to execute virtually unchanged with DB2. In this chat Serge Rielau, SQL Architect for DB2 LUW, provides an overview of Oracle compatability features in DB2 9.7.
IBM DB2 9.7 introduces enhancements that allow you to make changes to the database objects while keeping these objects fully accessible to the database users during the modification. These enhancements allow database administrators to make vital changes to the database schema on the fly without any disruption to users. This article includes examples that demonstrate how to use the ALTER TABLE command to rename columns and change column data types. Other examples demonstrate how to use the ADMIN_MOVE_TABLE routine to move and modify tables while keeping them accessible.
