2 Performance management and optimization solutions for IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows
Poor application and database performance can have a signif-
icant effect on a company’s bottom line, such as lost sales and
customer churn for e-commerce sites, or for mission-critical
systems, substantially reduced productivity and revenue.
Missed service-level agreements (SLAs) may lead to loss of
customers, a damaged brand and even fines and other penalties.

Missed service-level agreements (SLAs) may lead to loss of

Addressing application and database performance is a tough
challenge: organizations are under constant pressure to develop
and deploy new business applications while ensuring that
existing applications maintain optimal performance levels
to meet customer expectations. But as usage increases, appli-
cations often become less responsive. And with data volumes
doubling in size every five years, database performance can
become unacceptably sluggish.

Attempting to solve these problems by purchasing more
hardware and adding staff causes infrastructure and resource
hardware and adding staff causes infrastructure and resource
costs to skyrocket and is not a long-term solution. Database
administrators (DBAs) can spend significant amounts of time
responding to a performance problem—time that could be
spent on more strategic work to help the business reduce
operational costs and become more efficient.

Address performance challenges and
manage costs
IBM offers solutions that help you implement a best-
practice methodology to identify, diagnose, solve and prevent
performance problems while reducing the time and money
spent on performance-related tasks (see Figure 1).

By combining solutions for integrated performance
management, DBAs can move out of reaction mode and
resolve performance issues before they affect the business.
