3 Top Routine DBA Tasks Maintenance Space Management Efficient Resource Management Proactive Performance Application Management Create New Structures Change Existing Structures And Indexes & Views Grant Security Privileges Create Test Data Performance & Tuning React to Production Problems Diagnose Response Time Issues Tune SQL & System Determine Best Practices Availability Devise & Implement Appropriate Backup Strategy Recover Data Recover System 3

4 Top Pains for the DBA Maintenance Space Management Efficient Resource Management Proactive Performance Pains Time Consuming & Tedious Easy to Overlook Too late; Business Affected Performance & Tuning React to Production Problems Diagnose Response Time Issues Tune SQL & System Determine Best Practices Pains Interruptions Difficult to Diagnose Expertise Required Time Consuming 4

5 Top Pains for the DBA Application Management Create New Structures Change Existing Structures And Indexes & Views Grant Security Privileges Pains Problematic A lot of dependencies Time consuming due to scripting Data Preservation takes a long time Security exposure too tedious to grant everyone appropriate privileges Availability Devise & Implement Appropriate Backup Strategy Recover Data Recover System Pains Time Consuming Need to understand each application & SLA Nerve-wracking Need to find backups; need shortest downtime; everyone watching 5

6 DBAs Affect the Business Delayed revenue awaiting DBA availability to implement application migration or enhancements Application performance degradation or outage due to: Unanticipated side-effects of changes rolled into production Batch workload overrun into production window Missed SLAs and declining customer satisfaction due to eroding or unpredictable application performance Comprehensively identifying all dependencies before rolling change into production Fitting database workload into shrinking batch windows Managing test data in compliance Isolating problems to correct layer of the application stack or to the correct application Developing performance indicators that reflect SLAs and enable more proactive monitoring Getting more work done 6

7 Solution Requirements: The Right Tools for the Job Maintenance Quickly & automatically unload data Proactively monitor performance Application Management Automatically create & alter structures, indexes and views Automatically create test data Performance & Tuning Implement end-to-end performance monitoring, extending beyond the database Proactively monitor & tune Availability Automatically collect diagnostics Simple, automated backup and recovery procedures 7

12 IBM s Solution for the DBA Powerful, Comprehensive DBA Toolkit Data Studio Administrator increases DBA productivity and reduces application outages by automating and simplifying complex DB2 structural changes. IBM DB2 Performance Expert for Linux, UNIX, and Windows provides in-depth database monitoring, problem isolation, and trend analysis for DB2. IBM DB2 Performance Expert Extended Insight Feature extends database monitoring across the database client, the application server, and the network, giving DBAs immediate insight into where database workloads, transactions, and SQL requests are spending their time. IBM DB2 High Performance Unload is a high-speed tool for unloading, extracting, and repartitioning data in DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows databases. It helps the DBA to work with very large quantities of data with less effort and with faster results. IBM Optim Test Data Management Solution offers comprehensive test data management capabilities for creating right-sized test databases that accurately reflect end-to-end business processes. You eliminate costly cloning processes and correct defects early in the development process. 12
