E N D
Federated Database Set Up • Greg Magsamen • ITK478 SIA
Proposed Deliverables • Federated Database and multiple heterogeneous databases and data sources (Excel, XML) accessed via the federated database. • Sample SQL Statements via some SQL Query Tool or Reporting Tool. • Possibly a program extracting data from data source (Net Beans, VS 2005 (.Net) • Reporting Tool (Crystal or Business Objects)
Agenda • Database Middleware • Federated Systems • DB2 and WFS • Setup • Demo • Conclusions
Not Covered • Complex situations • Data Mappings, Function Mappings • Various types of data sources
Purpose • Discover the Architecture • What software do I need? • How do I set it up? • Is this easy, difficult? • How viable for a real world implementation?
Database Oriented Middleware • What is Database Oriented Middleware? • An interface to an application • The ability to convert the application language into something understandable to the target database • The ability to send a query to a database over the network • The ability to process a query on the target database • The ability to move a response set back over the network to the requesting application • The ability to convert a response set into a format understandable by the requesting application
DB2 / Web Sphere Federated DB • Why DB2? • Other choices? Oracle? • http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/middleware/index.html • SQL Server?
Special Interest Activity Federated Server Setup • Wrappers • User mappings • Nicknames
Special Interest Activity Setup • IBM DB2-C • IBM DB2 EE (Extended Edition) • IBM Web Sphere Federated Server • Federated Object Setup
Data Sources for the Special Interest Activity • SQL Server, Oracle, DB2 • Excel • XML
Setting up Each Data Source • SQL Server • Oracle • DB2 • Excel • XML
Outcome of Object Usage • Querying Tool - Command Center • SQL Statements - Command Center of DB2 • Program to ITK478 • Crystal Reporting • Uses Views
Demo • VPN over wireless may be slow • Review what’s been done • Add another data source
Demo • Program Source • Crystal Problem
Learning Curve • Product selection • Database access • File access • Focused on simple tasks • Viable system up and running • Simple data source • Many more issues and components would come into play for a ‘real-world’ system and were not addressed in this SIA
Review of Material • Database Middleware – what it is • Federated Systems – how they fit in • DB2 and WFS – products and usage • Setup – problems and scenarios • Demo – simple set up • Conclusions – coming up
Not Covered • Complex situations • Data Mappings, Function Mappings • Various types of data sources
Conclusions • Ease of Use • Major Problems
Usage Scenarios • Data Mart Versus Federation • Viability found from the SIA
To Be Continued…. • Things not covered • Data Mappings • Mapping Functions • Web Services
