BUILT-IN Functions - I didn't know Db2 could do THAT!

Were you aware than Db2 for z/OS now supports more than twice as many SQL BUILT-IN functions as it did 20 years ago? The World has moved on significantly from the basic Functions such as SUM, COUNT and AVG which were all that were available when many of us first learnt SQL. There are now well over 200 Functions supported providing a huge range of powerful features. As well as the basic data manipulation and Mathematical Functions you would expect there are advanced analytical capabilities, sophisticated array management and aggregation features, XML, Security and more, all provided out of the box. Unfortunately many users have not kept up to date with advances and we find Programmers still coding requirements manually in whatever language they are using when the Database itself could be doing much more of the heavy lifting. This session will review the current capabilities of the native BUILT-IN functions provided by Db2 for z/OS and will highlight some of the more useful ones. It will be valuable whether you’re a new Application Programmer or an experienced DBA looking for an update on SQL capabilities.

Speaker: 
Emil Kotrč
Db2 for z/OS comes with a set of Stored Procedures that can help application developers to perform various administrative tasks. The main benefits of these procedures are their ease of use via the SQL CALL statement and the simplification of processes. One example of the supplied stored procedures is DSNUTILU, which allows Db2 utility operations from the application programs.
In this presentation we will show how to use DSNUTILU, we will discuss possible real life scenarios, and the benefits and drawbacks of its usage in local and remote application programs.
Objectives:
1. An overview of Db2 supplied stored procedures.
2. Description of DSNUTILU and examples of possible use cases.
3. Discussion of DSNUTILU benefits and drawbacks.

Mobile/Web applications are becoming critical to enterprise success with requirement of managing data in database. Digital data that are location based can leverage DB2 spatial support. Mobile data that are transferred in 2 most commonly formats: JSON or XML, can use DB2 JSON and XML features. The coexistence of both relational data and flexible schema data in DB2 allow rapid delivery of applications while leverage existing DB2 qualities of services.

This already exists and is actually one written by Steen Rasmussen and used with his permission although I will update it. It covers RUNSTATS profiles and the new SYSSTATFEEDBACK options provided by SQL where the Optimizer can tell you what Statistics are missing which might have allowed it to choose a better access path
