AGENDA:

“Overview of IDS Cheetah”                      Jerry Keesee

Jerry Keesee. IBM Director of R&D for Informix will announce some exciting news about the next release of Informix Dynamic Server (IDS) - code named "Cheetah". He will highlight the new features, and cover results of the recent beta test run, along with a roadmap showing the direction of future IDS releases.

“Agile - Performance enhancements in Cheetah,application development ”                      Darrin Tracy

If you thought IDS was fast now, just wait until you get your hands on the latest updates that deliver peak performance to your applications. Learn what has been added in IDS Cheetah (and what you've been missing if you are still on IDS 7.31). Find out the implementation details so you can take advantage of these for your solutions.

“Agile - Extending IDS further ”                      Gayathri Magie

Do you Web 2.0? Find out more about how you can take advantage of a Services Oriented Architecture to easily deliver location based information to your applications. Application development had been made easier than ever with IDS 11. SQL enhancement and new drivers.

“Invisible - Enter the "Administration-Free Zone ”                      John Miller

If you like the 'hands-free' reliability of IDS, you're gonna love the new tools that make administration even easier. The new OpenAdmin Tool for IDS provides a GUI based view of all of your data server activities - starting with a map of server locations that can drill down to the detail of an individual SQL statement. Other new features allow automatic scheduling to keep your weekends free.

“Reslient - Availability Solutions in "Cheetah" ”                      Kevin Brown

IDS has long provided multiple robust solutions to support high availability of your data. IDS "Cheetah" builds on those strengths with new options to design the right availability solution to meet your needs. Learn how customers achieve 99.999% availability (less than 5 minutes downtime per year), and how these new choices can improve performance and provide workload management for easy scalability.

“Reslient and Secure - Protecting your Information Assests" ”                      Dave Desautels

Learn how the new security features in IDS, including Label Based Access Control (LBAC), can help you protect the information assets in your IDS databases. New levels of control will make it easier to isolate protected information to meet regulatory compliance requirements and gain competitive advantage.

“View the Demos and Meet the Experts" ”                     

We are fortunate that our meeting is in the same location as the IDS R&D Team. You've seen the presentations, now take time to talk to the experts who created theses new features, and see demos that illustrate how you can use the new functionality in your applications.
