Customers Weigh In

摘要

According to Anjul Bhambhri, IBM's director of tools and partner enablement for data servers, customers have shown the most interest in three aspects of Data Studio: its end-to-end nature, its use of pureQuery, and its integrated application development environment for SQL, XML, and Java. IBM Gold Consultant (and contributor to this magazine) Dave Beulke of Pragmatic Solutions echoes Bhambhri's assessment of the importance of pureQuery. He was involved in the Data Studio beta trials and has begun testing the product with some of his consulting clients. In conversations with IBM Database Magazine, Beulke sang the praises of pureQuery's ability to use static SQL, improving performance and auditability. "The ability to use static SQL with pureQuery is huge," said Beulke. "Recently, I worked with a client who could reduce CPU usage by 7 percent thanks to this one feature."
