Editorial Back to top

For us this is the middle of the New Year Holydays. Our 5773th year started on September 17, followed by Yom Kippur and now Sukkot. No holidays between October 8 and December 9 it is just work, work and more work. Lucky for me at least some of it (the fun part) is Informix.

Our next IIUG board event will be our next board meeting at the IBM Information On Demand Conference in Las Vegas, October 21-25. If you attend the conference, don’t miss the Informix party. Attending or not, do not miss the IIUG Informix Conference, which is to be held April 21 – 25, 2013 at the San Diego (CA) Marriott Mission Valley, USA. We have just issued a call for speakers. As a past speaker, believe me, it is worth the effort. Save the date and stay tuned.

IBM Mobile Database for Android

IBM Mobile Database, the new database offering for Android mobile devices, has gone GA. IBM Mobile Database offers a tight integration between a customer’s mobile solution and their existing Informix or DB2 environment. It is being offered as a free-of-charge web download.

The new offering makes it easier for mobile developers to develop and assemble applications for Android devices. Together with the solidDB offering, IBM Mobile Database provides the capability to synchronize data with Informix and DB2 databases.

Hands-On With Informix Warehouse Accelerator:
In March 2011 IBM introduced market-changing data warehouse technology that dramatically enhanced the ability of Informix to operate as a data warehouse or data analysis server. The accelerator technology uses compression and a columnar approach to storing and accessing data in-memory, as opposed to the row-based approach of most database engines. The IBM approach is designed to provide data response times that are hundreds of times faster than those achieved with conventional systems. In this lab, you will have the opportunity to use this technology.

How the Malaysian Inland Revenue Board Improved Performance with an IBM Informix Genero-Based Framework:
The Inland Revenue Board Malaysia (IRBM) is one of the largest revenue-collecting agencies of the Malaysian government. It is responsible for tax administration for the nation’s taxpayers. In 2006, Censof implemented the Standard Accounting System for Government Agencies (SAGA)-compliant Century Financials (Government) at the IRBM. This solution was built on IBM Informix Genero and IBM Informix. The functionality and performance of this solution helped Censof win the subsequent Electronic Revenue Accounting System (e-RAS) project. The e-RAS project was implemented to provide greater efficiency in dealing with the public sector, as outlined in the IRBM Client Charter.

Open Source Big Data for the Impatient, Part 1: Hadoop tutorial: Hello World with Java, Pig, Hive, Flume, Fuse, Oozie, and Sqoop with Informix, DB2, and MySQL
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/data/library/techarticle/dm-1209hadoopbigdata/index.html
This article is focused on explaining Big Data and then providing simple worked examples in Hadoop, the major open-source player in the Big Data space. You’ll be happy to hear that Hadoop is NOT a replacement for Informix or DB2, but in fact plays nicely with the existing infrastructure. There are multiple components in the Hadoop family and this article will drill down to specific code samples that show the capabilities. No Elephants will stampede if you try these examples on your own PC.

Stored procedures used in callable and prepared statements
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/data/library/techarticle/dm-1209storedprocedures/index.html
To improve the performance of a relational database application, it is normal to use stored procedures, which are nothing but user-defined functions containing a series of SQL statements stored in database. In this article we are going to demonstrate how to access a Stored Procedure using callable statements with the Informix JDBC driver. JDBC CallableStatement extends the PreparedStatement and sends the request to server to execute a Stored Procedure for complex operations (such as returning values or using input and output Stored Procedure parameters).

Business Analytics in a Blink: Many great milestones in information management have come from the IBM Almaden Research Center, including the invention of the relational database and the first data mining algorithms. Another ground-breaking project to recently come from the Almaden Research Center is “Blink”. The Blink project’s ambitious goal was to answer all Business Intelligence queries in mere seconds, regardless of the database size and without having to define any performance layer.

What is purpose of the ‘deadlock’ mutex which can be seen in ‘onstat -g spi’ output?

The ‘deadlock’ mutex ensures that there is never be more than one session checking for a deadlock situation at any given time. Whenever some lock is requested due to the LOCK MODE set to WAIT [seconds] statement used by a session, the code for deadlock checking get executed.

The deadlock checking code starts with marking all the sessions in the instance with an internal flag saying ‘not in deadlock’. Then it walks through the list of all the locks held by the current session (including the newly requested one) and for each lock it identifies whether there are some sessions waiting for it. If such a session (called waiter) is found, its internal flag changed to ‘deadlock candidate’ and the waiter added into the so called ‘deadlock list’. Each of the waiters in this list is then checked in the same way – the code checks whether any of the waiters holds any lock the current session is waiting for. If such a lock is found a deadlock is detected.

Each execution of the deadlock checking code depends on a consistent state of the internal ‘deadlock’ flag in each session. In other words there can’t be more sessions checking for the deadlock at the same time, as they would overwrite that internal flag mutually. To ensure this, each session has to acquire the ‘deadlock’ mutex before the deadlock checking code can be executed and release it once the deadlock detection is finished.
