Optimize DB2 for z/OS data warehouses at a lower cost

IBM® InfoSphere® Warehouse on System z® provides a scalable, resilient and cost-effective way to optimize an IBM DB2® for z/OS® data warehouse. It is part of a comprehensive IBM Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence solution for IBM System z.

InfoSphere Warehouse on System z:

Reduces operational complexity through deployment of both operational and warehouse data on a single platform. This helps reduce the cost of data movement, data compliance and security.
Provides data transformation with extract, transform and load. This eliminates the need to export the data to different environments, which reduces data latency.
Extends the ability to perform root cause analysis of multidimensional data using online analytical processing. It extends the size of cubes and the ability to join cubes.
Significantly improves query performance with Multidimensional Expression language query support for a wide range of business tools. These include IBM Cognos®, IBM Query Management Facility™, Microsoft Excel and other business tools.
Makes the most of System z advantages including hardware-based data compression, workload management, and high availability through data sharing and strong connectivity between z/OS and Linux.
