Résumé
Customers have a strong interest in the scalability of data warehousing solutions on the IBM System z platform using DB2 for z/OS. Since business intelligence environments continue to grow, this book explores the scaling and management of data in sizes beyond 50 TB. We explore the architectural software components that enable us to manage a data warehouse of this magnitude, including the Cognos product set.
The objective of our 50TB study was to test System z scalability in a business intelligence environment and to develop the best practices of managing large data warehouses. The IBM System z was proven to scale to larger volumes, manage a mixed workload, lower the cost of a BI solution using zIIPs, and increase performance by using hardware compression.
