17 Preface This redbook is designed to help system designers, system administrators, and database administrators design, size, implement, maintain, monitor, and tune a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) for optimal performance on AIX. Relational Database Management Systems are a significant factor in the profit line of a company. They represent an important investment and their performance is often vital to the success of the company. This redbook contains hints and tips from experts that work on RDBMS performance every day. It also provides introductions to general database layout concepts from a performance point of view, design and sizing guidelines, tuning recommendations, and performance and tuning information for DB2 UDB and Oracle databases. Howthisbookisorganized This redbook consists of three major parts, that are adopted to a database s life cycle. The first part, RDBMS concepts contains information for a basic comprehension of RDBMSs, which is fundamental for understanding a database s performance behavior in order to design, size, and tune an RDBMS. This first part may be helpful if you want to learn about databases, as a reference to refresh your knowledge, or to help you understand why certain concepts have an impact on the database s performance. Different workloads are described in this part as well as the different architectures of DB2 UDB and Oracle databases and their parallel editions. System designers and system and database administrators will find this part especially useful. The second part, System design and sizing for optimal performance, covers the time before the database is actually implemented and deals with preparing the system. This second part gives sizing techniques and provides a number of rules of thumb, from our experience, that can help you to size your database system. The design chapters deal with different circumstances that have to be taken into account when a database system is planed, such as growth or backup and restore needs. We dedicated one chapter to the disk subsystem design since this is the most sensitive and essential area for good database performance. This second part is vital for system designers and architects. The third part, System optimization, covers the time from the database implementation on. First, we give hints and tips on how to optimize your Copyright IBM Corp xv
18 database implementation that go beyond the implementation documentation provided by database vendors. Then, we introduce some monitoring tools and methods that help you to keep track of your database s performance. The tuning chapters not only introduce different tuning methods and their benefits and drawbacks, they are, furthermore, filled with hints and tips and recommendations that help you tune the performance of your database system. There are AIX tuning hints and tips as well as separate chapters on DB2 UDB and Oracle tuning. The last chapter of this part should be used if all else fails. It provides hints and tips on how to open a problem record with IBM Software Service in a most effective way. The appendixes are provided for your reference. They contain reference sheets for database administrators, AIX performance tools, vital SQL, and we describe the Model Database that we used for our performance tests during the development of this redbook.

23 Chapter 1. Introduction to this redbook Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS) become more and more the core IT systems of companies and large enterprises. They are vital for companies profit lines since RDBMS systems hold data, such as sales, stock, finances, and order income. This data has to be accessible by many people at the same time, often 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, especially since companies are extending their business onto a global market, and people need to have access to the systems from all time zones. Not only production data for the daily business, but also historical data is held in the companies database systems. This data is used for research and to provide information for major management decisions. High performance of these systems is very often vital for the success of a company. Customer orders have to be processed quickly, and available stock in the warehouses has to be found and assigned to the according order. Especially for companies with time-critical data, such as airlines, good performance is mandatory. Performance also becomes an increasing issue because the systems get bigger every year, the databases get more complex, and, last but not least, RDBMS systems mean a large investment in resources, both in money and people, and everybody wants value for their money. Database performance is a very wide area with many different aspects. It is dependent on a large number of factors, such as the hardware, the application, the workload, the layout of the disk subsystem, and an uncounted number of system and database parameters. Within this book, we want to share our knowledge and experience with you and help you to understand what database performance is all about and where to focus on when you plan, run, and tune a Relational Database Management System. We found that it was often hard to pin down clear facts since the alteration of one little parameter can change the whole picture, but we give you a number of rules of thumb, based on our experience, and we put a large amount of information down for you to make conclusions about the performance needs and impacts of your database system. We also hope to cut through many myths and legends about performance tuning options that are no longer true or that are only part of the truth as well as give you an update on the latest features of AIX that you can use to make your database perform at its best.

24 You might find this book to be helpful in any stage of your database s life cycle: In the planning and sizing stage, during implementation, and when running a productive database system. We adapted the structure of our redbook to this life cycle and subdivided it into three major parts: RDBMS concepts - Covering the concepts of Relational Database Management Systems, the different workload characteristics, and an introduction into both DB2 UDB and Oracle databases, including a brief introduction into parallel database systems. System design and sizing for optimal performance - Covering the pre-life phase of an RDBMS the sizing to meet the requirements of the predicted workload, and the system design and layout for optimal performance. System optimization - Focusing on the implementation of an RDBMS and the monitoring and tuning tasks once the database is installed. This book is written from an AIX and RS/6000 point of view and focuses on how an RDBMS can use the advanced features of these products. Even though we are covering DB2 UDB and Oracle databases in more detail, a large part of the book also applies to any other Relational Database Management System. We chose DB2 UDB and Oracle because they represent 80 percent of all databases installed on RS/6000s, and 65 percent of the RS/6000 Enterprise and SP Systems run a version of these popular databases. Database design or application programming are large subjects that are common to all platforms. There is a wide range of literature available on these subjects; therefore, we do not cover these subjects in this redbook, nor do we go into great detail on Structured Query Language (SQL). Please refer to Appendix F, Related publications on page 415 for some useful books. Appendix 3 has a simple quick reference sheet on SQL, useful if you are sitting in front of the machine trying to remember a particular SQL statement in order to get certain information from the database. Parallel databases are briefly mentioned so that you know when to consider them. However, covering parallel database design and performance exceeds the scope of this redbook. Designing, sizing, and tuning an RDBMS is rather an art than a science, and it requires a lot of technical skills and personal experience. This book, therefore, is a valuable source of information on your way of becoming a professional RDBMS performance expert. 2 Database Performance on AIX in DB2 UDB and Oracle Environments
