Company to Demonstrate New Products and Thought Leadership at IDUG
Conference
DALLAS, May 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Compuware Corporation (Nasdaq:
CPWR) today announced the release of version 6.4 of its powerful DB2
administration workbench, Compuware DBA-Xpert for DB2. This tool helps DBAs
automate the migration from one version of DB2 to another--saving labor,
time and money.
"Compuware is committed to helping our customers achieve economic value
from their investments in technology," said Rose Rowe, Compuware Vice
President of Mainframe Solutions. "By automating what would otherwise be
very complex and labor intensive activities, DBA-Xpert for DB2 saves our
customers both time and money."
To provide additional insight into the complex tasks that face DBAs,
Greg Lackey, a leading expert in DB2 migration for Compuware, will join
Susan Lawson and Dan Luksetich of Yevich, Lawson and Associates Inc. to
present "Handling DB2 Database and Version Migrations" at the IDUG North
America conference on Wednesday, May 21 from 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Yevich, Lawson and Associates Inc specializes in DB2 z/OS database and
application design and performance. Lawson and Luksetich work with clients
developing and tuning some of the world's largest DB2 z/OS databases, and
also teach a wide variety of classes based upon their experience. They
recently authored the "DB2 9 for z/OS DBA Certification Guide" published by
McPress.
"With object migrations occupying a significant portion of DBA time, a
good tool is a necessity," said Lawson. "Given complex object relationships
in today's databases, a good migration tool is a must!"
Compuware representatives will be on hand at the IDUG conference to
work with customers and demonstrate how migration from one DB2 version to
another can be more streamlined, cost effective and successful. Customers
and others can find Compuware at booth 413.
The extended support for DB2 V9 with DBA-Xpert for DB2 release 6.4
provides a single tool to help DBAs efficiently face the challenges and
complexities associated with the migration from one version of DB2 to
another. By allowing simultaneous access to multiple DB2 subsystems running
different versions and making it easier to respond to multiple requirements
within a single session, DBA-Xpert enables DBAs to reduce errors and enjoy
smoother, more successful migrations and database modifications. These
capabilities are especially important for those looking for an efficient
and seamless transition from one version of DB2 to another.
DBA-Xpert 6.4 is a single-product database management tool providing
centralized control of database development, maintenance and security in a
complex DB2 subsystem environment. It allows database administrators to
simultaneously access and administer multiple DB2 systems and versions on
separate LPARs from a single DBA-Xpert session.
