Transactional vs Analytical SQL
Join NEMUG on November 28th when Db2
Industry Expert, Bob Bestgen will join us to present
Transactional vs Analytical SQL.
SQL performance got you down? SQL
statements looking like spaghetti? Proper database design for
the intended usage is important for long term success and good
performance. There is a difference between transactional and
analytical processing and it is useful to understand the
difference. What should an appropriate data model look like?
What are the red flags that your data model is not best for your
usage? This session will discuss these topics along with
strategies for handling cases when analytical processing is
required against your transactional data. Additional topics
touched on include: - real time vs. ETL transformations - using
dimension tables for dates, VINs, customer names and zip codes
- Operational Data stores – and Dimensional Data Models.

It was great to have Dawn May of

Services for System Admins, IFS Tasks and more. Thank
you for visiting us Dawn. It was great to learn more about how
we can use the i.
For November we have Rob Bestgen from IBM Lab Services who will
speak with us about an SQL topic - Transaction vs. Analytical

each type of SQL.
