Db2 Database Upgrade Challenges
Availability
Business critical databases need to be available 24/7 and the risk of downtime must be carefully managed during any version migration project. The availability of your data is of paramount importance. Therefore, we guarantee that all migrations occur with minimal downtime to ensure that your business continues to run without disruption.
Skills
Each new version has many new features and enhancements. DBAs need to have access to training to ensure they can effectively use their new tools and harness the benefits of their upgraded product. To address this, our comprehensive training programs empower DBAs with the knowledge and skills required to confidently utilise the new Db2 tools and maximise the advantages offered by each upgraded version
Time
Db2 upgrade projects can often take longer than anticipated and use up valuable DBA resources. This can cause your team to miss project deadlines and lose valuable time. To mitigate these challenges, it’s essential to implement efficient project management strategies, closely monitor progress, and allocate additional resources when necessary to ensure that Db2 upgrade projects stay on track and within the expected timeframe.
Performance Issues
When you upgrade to a new version of your Db2 LUW or Db2 z/OS database, it may still be necessary to change the way that certain queries are executed. We’ll help troubleshoot any issues relating to the performance of your upgraded databases.
Data Loss
Data loss due to poor planning is one of the biggest obstacles to successful Db2 database version upgrades. It can be extremely time consuming and expensive to restore lost data. Triton will help you to mitigate the risk of data loss in complex database upgrade projects by providing a tried, tested and continuous process of upgrading.
New version education
We are often asked to present our customers with a concise overview of the new features available in a newer version of Db2. Our training sessions help DBAs understand the main differences between releases and ensure that they take full advantage of what the new version offers.
