DB/IQ tool is designed for DBAs and DevOps to ensure high quality and maintainability of Db2 applications. DB/IQ helps to assess the health of your existing applications, ensures full compliance of code deployed to production and suggests ways to optimize application performance.
Features of DB/IQ
DB/IQ tool verifies if the SQL DB2 applications respect your quality rules
DB/IQ tool analyses and performs checks on all SQL codes. Whether in source form, in a DBRM resulting from the Db2 pre-processor, catalog-based SQL (plans, packages, views, MQTs, triggers etc) or as dynamically executed SQL. According to organisation-defined standards verify the quality of SQL code. More than 350 quality rules are instantly available and can be tailored to match your requirement needs and SLAs. DB/IQ provide developers interactive quality control – the tool can instantly analyse the syntax, semantics, and potential performance issues. It can also identify errors, inconsistencies, and suboptimal query patterns, providing clear explanations and recommended improvements.
Enhances Db2 Application Performance
DB/IQ helps DBAs quickly identify where database and application performance can be improved. It measures the performance of SQL statements. It considers factors like cost, joins, sorting, and access paths. It also measures time taken and CPU usage. It suggests the best indexes for your SQL queries. It can predict how well your application will perform with larger datasets, even without having the actual data.
Index Optimisation
DB/IQ analyses the entire SQL activity to evaluate if existing indexes on Db2 tables are relevant and if other columns would make more efficient indexes.
DB/IQ examines all SQL related to a table, identify whether it is static SQL found in the Db2 catalog or dynamic SQL – queries generated during execution, extracted from traces or the Db2 cache.
Build better DB2 Applications
To reduce the performance problems associated with bad SQL, many organizations adopt best-practice coding rules for all programmers. These rules had to be systematically applied and monitored continuously. DB/IQ applies quality rules for SQL and checks code compliance before it’s put into production.
