1. Federated Database Set Up Greg Magsamen ITK478 SIA

2. 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)

3. Agenda Database Middleware Federated Systems DB2 and WFS Setup Demo Conclusions

4. Not Covered Complex situations Data Mappings, Function Mappings Various types of data sources

5. 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?

6. 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

7. Federated Systems

8. DB2 / Web Sphere Federated DB Why DB2? Other choices? Oracle? http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/middlewa re/index.html http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/middlewa re/index.html SQL Server?

9. Web Sphere Federated Server

10. Setup of Federation Database

11. Special Interest Activity Federated Server Setup Wrappers User mappings Nicknames

12. Special Interest Activity Setup IBM DB2-C IBM DB2 EE (Extended Edition) IBM Web Sphere Federated Server Federated Object Setup

13. Final Architecture

14. Data Sources for the Special Interest Activity SQL Server, Oracle, DB2 Excel XML

15. Setting up Each Data Source SQL Server Oracle DB2 Excel XML

16. Wrappers

17. Outcome of Object Usage Querying Tool - Command Center SQL Statements - Command Center of DB2 Program to ITK478 Crystal Reporting Uses Views

18. Demo VPN over wireless may be slow Review what’s been done Add another data source

19. Demo Program Source Crystal Problem

20. 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

21. 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

22. Not Covered Complex situations Data Mappings, Function Mappings Various types of data sources

23. Conclusions Ease of Use Major Problems

24. Usage Scenarios Data Mart Versus Federation Viability found from the SIA

25. To Be Continued…. Things not covered Data Mappings Mapping Functions Web Services
