Abstract:

This overview of the major enhancements in IMS 11 covers the new features in the areas of Database and Transaction Management. Focus is on increased availability, scalability, connectivity and ease of use. Many features make IMS 11 easier than ever. Direct SQL access to IMS data from any distributed platform and easier connectivity through TCP/IP significantly simplifies (and in some cases eliminates) the data replication and change capture processes. With JAVA support, IMS 11 helps you leverage a larger number of developers to build IMS applications. Reduced complexity of creating database recovery points, reduced CPU time for online database reorganization processing, and easier capacity optimization all add up to easier operations.

Alison Coughtrie, from IBM Europe BetaWorks, Hursley, UK, is responsible for the IMS Quality Partnership Programs (QPPs) for Europe, the Middle East and Africa. During the QPP a small set of Customers implement future releases of IMS to validate the quality of the code prior to it being made generally available to the broader community. Alison has specialised in IMS over the past 25 years both as an IMS Customer and within IBM.
