  • Perl DBI API Reference
    H Perl DBI API Reference This appendix describes the Perl DBI application programming interface. The API consists of a set of methods and attributes for communicating with database servers and accessing databases from Perl scripts. The appendix also describes MySQL-specific extensions to DBI provided by DBD::mysql, the MySQL database driver. I assume here a minimum version of DBI 1.50, although most of the material applies to earlier versions as well. DBI 1.50 requires at least Perl 5.6.0 (with 5.6.1 preferred). As of DBI 1.611, the minimum Perl version is 5.8.1. I also assume a minimum version of DBD::mysql 4.00. To determine your versions of DBI and DBD::mysql (assuming that they are installed), run this program: #!/usr/bin/perl # dbi-version.pl - display DBI and DBD::mysql versions use DBI; print "DBI::VERSION: $DBI::VERSION\n"; use DBD::mysql; print "DBD::mysql::VERSION: $DBD::mysql::VERSION\n"; If you need to install the DBI software, see Appendix A , “Software Required to Use This Book.” Some DBI methods and attributes are not discussed here, either because they do not apply to MySQL or because they are experimental methods that may change as they are developed or may even be dropped. Some MySQL-specific DBD methods are not discussed because they are obsolete. For more information about new or obsolete methods, see the DBI or DBD::mysql documentation, available at http://dbi.perl.org or by running the following commands: % perldoc DBI % perldoc DBI::FAQ % perldoc DBD::mysql The examples in this appendix are only brief code fragments.

  • Delivering Oracle Compatibility
    DELIVERING ORACLE COMPATIBILITY A White Paper by EnterpriseDB www.EnterpriseDB.com TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Summary 4 Introducing EnterpriseDB Advanced Server 6 SQL Compatibility 6 PL/SQL Compatibility 9 Data Dictionary Views 11 Programming Flexibility and Drivers 12 Transfer Tools 12 Database Replication 13 Enterprise-Class Reliability and Scalability 13 Oracle-Like Tools 14 Conclusion 15 Downloading EnterpriseDB 15 EnterpriseDB EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Enterprises running Oracle® are generally interested in alternative databases for at least three reasons. First, these enterprises are experiencing budget constraints and need to lower their database Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Second, they are trying to gain greater licensing flexibility to become more agile within the company and in the larger market. Finally, they are actively pursuing vendors who will provide superior technical support and a richer customer experience. And, subsequently, enterprises are looking for a solution that will complement their existing infrastructure and skills. The traditional database vendors have been unable to provide the combination of all three benefits. While Microsoft SQL ServerTM and IBM DB2TM may provide the flexibility and rich customer experience, they cannot significantly reduce TCO. Open source databases, on the other hand, can provide the TCO benefits and the flexibility. However, these open source databases either lack the enterprise-class features that today’s mission critical applications require or they are not equipped to provide the enterprise-class support required by these organizations. Finally, none of the databases mentioned above provide the database compatibility and interoperability that complements their existing applications and staff. The fear of the costs of changing databases, including costs related to application re-coding and personnel re-training, outweigh the expected savings and, therefore, these enterprises remain paralyzed and locked into Oracle.

  • Netezza EOL: IBM IAS Is a Flawed Upgrade Path Netezza EOL: IBM IAS Is a Flawed Upgrade Path
    Author: Marc Staimer WHITE PAPER Netezza EOL: What You’re Not Being Told About IBM IAS Is a Flawed Upgrade Path Database as a Service (DBaaS) WHITE PAPER • Netezza EOL: IBM IAS Is a Flawed Upgrade Path Netezza EOL: IBM IAS Is a Flawed Upgrade Path Executive Summary It is a common technology vendor fallacy to compare their systems with their competitors by focusing on the features, functions, and specifications they have, but the other guy doesn’t. Vendors ignore the opposite while touting hardware specs that mean little. It doesn’t matter if those features, functions, and specifications provide anything meaningfully empirical to the business applications that rely on the system. It only matters if it demonstrates an advantage on paper. This is called specsmanship. It’s similar to starting an argument with proof points. The specs, features, and functions are proof points that the system can solve specific operational problems. They are the “what” that solves the problem or problems. They mean nothing by themselves. Specsmanship is defined by Wikipedia as: “inappropriate use of specifications or measurement results to establish supposed superiority of one entity over another, generally when no such superiority exists.” It’s the frequent ineffective sales process utilized by IBM. A textbook example of this is IBM’s attempt to move their Netezza users to the IBM Integrated Analytics System (IIAS). IBM is compelling their users to move away from Netezza. In the fall of 2017, IBM announced to the Enzee community (Netezza users) that they can no longer purchase or upgrade PureData System for Analytics (the most recent IBM name for its Netezza appliances), and it will end-of-life all support next year.

  • Xquery in IBM DB2 10 for Z/OS
    ® XQuery in IBM DB2 10 for z/OS Introduction In November 2011, support was added for XQuery in IBM® DB2® 10 for z/OS® through APARs PM47617 and PM47618. XQuery extends XPath with new language constructs, adding expressiveness to the IBM pureXML® features of DB2. Many XQuery queries can be rewritten using a combination of XPath and SQL/XML, but often XQuery is the preferred tool, as it is an easier to code and more readable alternative. Like XPath, XQuery is a W3C standard, and its addition is a further step in ensuring compatibility within the DB2 family of products. XQuery has been available in DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows since 2006. Constructs of XQuery XQuery introduces new types of expressions that can be used in XMLQUERY, XMLTABLE, and XMLEXISTS function calls. The XMLQUERY function is used in the SELECT clause of an SQL query to specify which XML data to retrieve. The XMLTABLE function is used in the FROM clause to extract XML data in a table format. The XMLEXISTS function is used in the WHERE clause to specify under which conditions to retrieve the data. XQuery expressions are most applicable with XMLQUERY, because arguments to XMLEXISTS can be specified by XPath expressions, which are indexable, while XQuery expressions are not. XMLQUERY is not indexable. XQuery can be used in XMLTABLE as the row expression or column expressions, but is usually not needed for the relational result. XQuery could be used to construct new XML values for the XML column results. There are three types of expressions that can be used alone or in combination: FLWOR expressions A FLWOR expression is a loop construct for manipulating XML documents in an application-like manner.

    Chapter 7: Relational Database Design Chapter 7: Relational Database Design First Normal Form Pitfalls in Relational Database Design Functional Dependencies Decomposition Boyce-Codd Normal Form Third Normal Form Multivalued Dependencies and Fourth Normal Form Overall Database Design Process Database System Concepts 7.2 ©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan 1 First Normal Form Domain is atomic if its elements are considered to be indivisible units + Examples of non-atomic domains: Set of names, composite attributes Identification numbers like CS101 that can be broken up into parts A relational schema R is in first normal form if the domains of all attributes of R are atomic Non-atomic values complicate storage and encourage redundant (repeated) storage of data + E.g. Set of accounts stored with each customer, and set of owners stored with each account + We assume all relations are in first normal form (revisit this in Chapter 9 on Object Relational Databases) Database System Concepts 7.3 ©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan First Normal Form (Contd.) Atomicity is actually a property of how the elements of the domain are used. + E.g. Strings would normally be considered indivisible + Suppose that students are given roll numbers which are strings of the form CS0012 or EE1127 + If the first two characters are extracted to find the department, the domain of roll numbers is not atomic. + Doing so is a bad idea: leads to encoding of information in application program rather than in the database. Database System Concepts 7.4 ©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan 2 Pitfalls in Relational Database Design Relational database design requires that we find a “good” collection of relation schemas.
