English Version

The 2012 Informix Roadshow in Lisbon ended yesterday. The highlights of the second workshop day were Informix Warehouse Accelerator, compression and Genero.

Attendees were impressed by the ease of use of IWA and has planned in literally a couple of hours they managed to install the server component, the client management tool, define a data mart, load it, test the queries and even look into the workload analyzer that allows automatic mart definition. And all these achievable in a laptop with 4GB of memory (mart used roughly 1GB of in-memory data). The underlying Informix instance was provided fully configured and loaded.

The session about compression was also very well received and Scott gave us some important tips for it's use (not only the chargeable components - compression itself -, but also the free stuff - repack/shrink/defrag -)

Before finishing we also had a session on Genero, particularly interesting for the 4GL users present.
So, this was a great event, and a big special thank you to Scott for coming here and provide us (IBMers, clients and partners) all this info and his own experiences.

O Roadshow Informix 2012 em Lisboa terminou ontem. Os pontos altos do segundo dia de workshop foram o Informix Warehouse Accelerator, compressão e Genero.

Os presentes ficaram impressionados com a facilidade de utilização do IWA, e como planeado em literalmente um par de horas conseguiram instalar o componente servidor, a ferramenta de gestão, definir um data mart, carregá-lo, testar as queries e mesmo espreitar o analisador de carga que permite a definição automática de data marts. E tudo isto é possível num portátil com 4GB de memória (o data mart ocupava cerca de 1GB de dados em memória). A instância base de Informix foi fornecida completamente configurada.

A sessão sobre compressão foi também muito bem recebida e o Scott deixou-nos algumas dicas para o seu uso (não apenas o componente pago - a compressão propriamente dita - mas também as funcionalidades grátis - repack/shrink/defrag - )

Antes do encerramento ainda tivemos a sessão sobre Genero, particularmente interessante para os utilizadores 4GL presentes.
Portanto, foi um excelente evento, e um grande obrigado ao Scott por ter vindo cá e nos ter deixado a todos (IBMers, clientes e parceiros) toda esta informação e as suas próprias experiências.
