Db2 for z/OS and the Data and AI on Z portfolio deliver exceptional enterprise value
(1)for hybrid cloud, data and AI
Enterprises are modernizing and building new applications off platform, on the cloud, while leveraging their cost effective, resilient systems of record on Z. Db2 for z/OS and its ecosystem of products offers agile, efficient, secure enterprise data serving for the world’s most demanding hybrid cloud, and transactional and analytics applications.
Organizations can readily access Db2 for z/OS and other Z data in-place, on platform, or synchronize that data for hybrid cloud, data fabric or data lakehouse applications. Transactional data is essential to understanding business performance and customer behavior and it offers the most predictive value for AI applications. Db2 for z/OS and other select Z transactional data can be delivered via Data Gate, to be readily combined with lakehouse data in watsonx.data for enhanced analytical insight and AI.
(2)Extract unprecedented insight from your Db2 for z/OS data
Data relationships and insights are often unaccessed, unidentified and therefore unmonetized. Traditional machine learning approaches do little to draw out this valuable information. To get more value from your existing data, you need a simpler, database-integrated approach for developing and deploying AI insights — with minimal data science dependency. Db2 for z/OS, via SQL Data Insights, provides an environment to generate trusted relational foundational models from private, known intra-enterprise data sources. Foundational models can be used for a variety of downstream tasks such as clustering, recommendations, similarity searches and prediction.
