CONNX DB2 Data Module - Performance and functionality!

CONNX 8.2 now includes support for IBM’s recent versions of DB2 on the following platforms: Linux; OS/2; Warp Server 4.0;Windows 95, 98, and NT 4.0; OS/400; MVS; and OS/390.

The CONNX 8.2 DB2 module can transform dynamic SQL statements into pre-compiled static SQL statements.

This is a distinct advantage to system and database administrators, who can now limit queries to static SQL statements, thereby ensuring faster and more secure database access. Also introduced in this release is the dynamic SQL Caching feature. Over the life of a connection, CONNX collects every SQL statement that has been executed. If a statement is reused, CONNX recognises and swiftly re-executes the statement.CONNX supports stored procedures for all DB2 platforms. The procedures can be implemented in compiled and interpreted languages such as IBM Assembler, COBOL, FORTRAN, PL/I, RPG, Java and OS/400 CL.

CONNX incorporates X/Open DRDA AR (Distributed Relational Database Access Application Requester) functionality. A full range of connectivity options is supported, including TCP/IP and APPC / LU 6.2 via third-party SNA software allowing CONNX to install over existing networks.

CONNX OLEDB Data Adapter Module - CONNX simplifies data access!

The CONNX® OLEDB Adapter Module now supports any SQL based data source that has an existing ODBC driver or OLEDB provider not already supported by an existing CONNX module. The CONNX OLEDB Adapter Module allows Business and IT users to access and integrate all ODBC/OLEDB-compliant data … regardless of origin. There are many databases on the market that do not have a large user base, but are still mission-critical to organisations.
