1 - "An Audit a day keeps the lawyers at bay!" from Roy Boxwell
Audit and Compliance is one of the big challenges companies are facing these days. With GDPR and a bunch of other laws either in force or "coming soon to an auditor near you" it is time to bite the bullet and start working with the auditor not against.
This presentation shows how you can answer Who did What When ‐ whenever needed.

2 - „ZOWE – The zGui (r)evolution - First hands on experience and best practices“ from Ulf Heinrich
The evolution of the mainframe had a variety of GUI approaches, some lasted for a while, some never took off at all. However, it was never THE COMMON ecosystem used by all products and all vendors. At the 2018 SHARE, IBM, Rocket Software and CA Technologies announced ZOWE – THE z ecosystem to securely manage, control, script and develop. Of course, an announcement is probably not the final truth, but from what I’ve already seen and used I’m more than enthused. This presentation shows you the basics you need to understand ZOWE, summarizes the steps you need to use it and illustrates how ISPF online and batch applications are supported from the GUI world.

Baltimore Washington Db2 Users Group – June 2018

Sheraton Columbia 10207 Wincopin Circle, Columbia

Meet us at the Baltimore - Washington Db2 Users Group 2018 in June, MD, USA and attend our presentation on DB2 12 Continuous Delivery. BWDB2UG. "Db2 12 – 12 months agile production experience with more focus on the Data and less on the base"

On October 21st 2016 Db2 12 went GA and several customers have quickly started to take a look at this new version. About a year ago some migrated their production systems and started to gain real life experience.
In July IBM also decided to do a massive rebranding throughout the z – ups, sorry – the Z portfolio. Db2 since then comes with a lowercase b, to place all emphasis on "Data"—your data. With all of this in mind we’ve created this presentation, bundling a year of experience to share best practices and tips for the Data-focused, agile database.
