Más información sobre el libro

Jürgen Glag's book emphasizes the importance of professional and efficient database software development in DB2 mainframe and client/server environments. It covers both technical aspects, such as performance and tuning, and organizational measures aimed at optimizing economic performance. This makes it particularly valuable for organizations seeking to implement DB2 safely and cost-effectively. Experience in large production systems has shown that most performance issues arise either from critical transaction loads or from handling large tables. The book advocates for proactive measures to identify and address these problems during the software development phase rather than waiting for production issues to arise. In addition to explaining the causes of performance problems, it outlines proven strategies to prevent them. The target audience includes data processing professionals, quality assurance personnel, project leaders, project managers in the data processing field, and software/application developers. Overall, the book serves as a comprehensive guide for ensuring effective DB2 application development while maintaining high performance and quality standards.
