RE: Washington Area Informix User Group meeting - July 26, 2005

I hate DB2. "everyone, someday, somewhere will have to move to DB2?" Are you sick? -----Original Message----- From: informix-list-bounces@iiug.org [mailto:informix-list-bounces@iiug.org] On Behalf Of me Sent: Tuesday, June 20, 2006 5:50 PM To: informix-list@iiug.org Subject: Re: Washington Area Informix User Group meeting - July 26, 2005 I thought this was the "Washington Area INFORMIX User Group"? Why then, is there a DB2 session in the afternoon? Doesn't this continue to support the notion that everyone, someday, somewhere will have to move to DB2? I mean, could the analogy be anymore trite?...You start the day (your career) as and INFORMIX person, but in the 2nd half of your day (your career), you're a DB2 person? A REALLY BAD message for the Informix community.

This seminar looks at how to review the Informix SQL query plan (sqexplan.out), examines indexes and when they will or will not improve performance, and explores other factors that may affect performance such as sorts, cursors, and locks. This is a free version of the tutorial I did at the IDUG/IIUG conference in Tampa this year. > > Lunch will be sponsored by Sun Microsystems, Inc. > > Afternoon: > > DB2 Performance Tuning and Troubleshooting: A Practical Approach by > Jim Cleveland > > This presentation will describe a method to rapidly identify, diagnose and resolve the vast majority of commonly experienced DB2 database performance problems. In the heat of a production crisis where database performance is at issue, the emphasis is on finding and fixing the problem -- fast. To that end, what follows is a distillation of much hard-won, collective experience gleaned from countless performance tuning engagements. A step-by-step, metrics-driven process will be elucidated for isolating and eliminating a wide variety of database performance difficulties. Although a "one-size-fits-all" methodology for addressing DB2 performance issues doesn't exist, this discussion should provide the means and the understanding to mitigate all but the most unusual of circumstances. > ______________________________________________________________________ > > The meeting is open to all.
