EZ-Impact Analyzer for DB2

The architecture of EZ-Impact Analyzer for DB2 comprised several key components designed to monitor and analyze the performance impact of changes on DB2 SQL queries. The SQL Analyzer was responsible for parsing and analyzing SQL statements, identifying potential performance bottlenecks and inefficiencies. ), and performance trends over time.

The Comparison Engine allowed users to compare performance metrics across different versions of applications or system configurations, highlighting performance regressions or improvements. These components communicated primarily through batch jobs and data sets. The tool used DB2 as its primary data store for storing performance data, metadata, and configuration information.

The administrative interface was primarily through JCL and ISPF panels, providing a command-line interface for executing tasks and configuring the system. User management was integrated with the z/OS security system, such as RACF, for authentication and authorization. The tool did not expose any APIs.

The network requirements were minimal, as the tool operated within the z/OS environment. For similar functionality, migrate to EZ-DB2.
