STLDUG

Meet us at the Saint Louis DB2 Users Group - June 2018 in St. Louis, MO, USA and attend our presentation on Db2 12 Continuous Delivery - STLDUG - "Total environment simulation – Workload Replay in an agile world".

Db2 Cloning proved to be just the right way to setup a testing, or development environment instantly. Some Db2 shops are refreshing multi-terabyte sized Db2 systems nearly on a daily basis, by exploiting cloning procedures and instant copy hardware features. While associated database objects and their data can be copied in a fully automated and resource friendly way, it turns out to be quite challenging and complex to cover representative SQL workload. Scaling workloads is an easier task, but parallel execution and especially exceptional queries, only executed on months, quarters, or years end can be cumbersome to be included adequately. If we want to avoid compromising quality of testing, our testing tasks become more complex to build and to maintain. Do we have the time for tasks like this? Does it fit DevOps, Agile and Continuous Delivery? Join this presentation and learn how you can upgrade!
