Db2 Analytics Accelerator Version 7.5 is now Generally Available!
The Db2 Analytics Accelerator for z/OS Version 7.5 delivers enterprise-grade transactional and analytic processing. It introduces Integrated Synchronization, a transformative capability that provides an integrated, low-latency data coherency protocol between Db2 for z/OS and the Db2 Analytics Accelerator via an internal hook into Db2 that grabs the data and propagates it into the Accelerator. This means that the data is united logically and ensures transactionally consistent analytic query results. Whether running a transactional or analytic query, only the most current data is used, thus guaranteeing data coherency. And because the data is always current – the insight derived from it will be more accurate.
Integrated Synchronization enables:
- Data coherency to help ensure transactionally consistent analytical query results
- Enterprise-grade hybrid transaction and analytical processing
- Simplified administration, improved performance, lower cost, and reduced CPU and memory usage
With version 7.5, the Db2 Analytics Accelerator deployed on IBM Z offers a wider range of scalability, from very small to very large deployments.
- Reduced IFL and memory requirements enable organizations with smaller deployments to take advantage of the capabilities in Db2 Analytics Accelerator
- Multi-node deployment delivers scalability for demanding workloads. Optimized for large workloads, this capability provides flexible adjustment of resources
