DB2 OLAP Server V8.1: Using Advanced Functions

This IBM Redbook explores DB2 OLAP Server V8.1 enhancements and strengths in the areas of scalability, performance, high concurrency, high availability, and administration, and explains how to deploy them in a whole enterprise environment. We provide administrators and implementers with practical guidelines based on a case study on the new advanced functions in DB2 OLAP Server V8.1. We discuss Hybrid Analysis and its ability to conciliate and integrate data from OLAP cubes and data warehouses, as well as the ability of OLAP Miner to detect deviations and discover anomalies and special segments from the wealth of data already analyzed within OLAP cubes. We also consider the capabilities of DB2 OLAP Server Enterprise Services or the High Concurrency Option to provide availability and reliability, including cube clustering, failing over and connection pooling. Performance enhancements and the ability to run operations in a multithreaded mode as parallel load, calculation and export, are covered, as well as DB2 OLAP Server Administration Services and the ability to manage multiple OLAP Servers from a single point of control. If you are an administrator or OLAP designer concerned with DB2 OLAP Server, this book will help you to evaluate the applicability of its new functions and show you how to start implementing them.
