Opening the Doors to Accessing IMS/DB via DB2

(HK)

Stream: IMS
Time: 15:15 - 16:15


Presentation

To paraphrase Mark Twain, “Reports of the death of mainframes are greatly exaggerated”, for which all of us attending GSE 2019 are grateful. However, there is no doubt that number of mainframe specialists is significantly less than 10 years ago and continues to diminish every year.

 

One area where the shortage of skilled mainframe resources is acute is in IMS. Many large mainframe organisations have core systems that use IMS databases and migration to Db2 or alternative platforms is on the radar of many mainframe IT managers and architects. In this presentation, we explore the issues surrounding the migration of IMS databases, from the underlying business drivers to evaluating the possible approaches. We will also put forward a preferred approach we believe to be the best in terms of risk avoidance, time to market and investment protection.
