TDS_CLA94G IBM Db2 12.1: Performance and Tuning Optimization for Relational DBAs
This course equips experienced database administrators with the skills needed to analyze, tune, and optimize the performance of IBM Db2 12 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows.Participants will learn how to interpret and influence the Db2 query optimization process using statistical metadata, develop efficient indexing strategies for high-performance workloads, and apply advanced tools such as EXPLAIN, db2pd, and the Db2 Data Management Console to evaluate and refine SQL access paths.The course also introduces the Db2 AI Optimizer and automation techniques that simplify statistics collection and performance diagnostics. Emphasis is placed on real-world use cases, practical monitoring methods, and proactive tuning practices to ensure scalable and efficient database operations in enterprise environments.Virtual LearningThis interactive training can be taken from any location, your office or home and is delivered by a trainer. This training does not have any delegates in the class with the instructor, since all delegates are virtually connected. Virtual delegates do not travel to this course, Global Knowledge will send you all the information needed before the start of the course and you can test the logins.
