DB/IQ Package Management

Deep Clean Your Db2 Catalog to Improve Application Performance

In today’s high-paced mobile landscape where customers expect non-stop availability of applications, DevOps initiatives put pressure on development teams to roll out high-quality software with fast turnarounds and more frequent release cycles. In the sprint to build, test and deploy to tight deadlines and with countless changes being processed by the minute, overwhelmed teams don’t have the bandwidth to consider the enormous build-up of packages inundating the Db2 Catalog – until that is, the bottlenecks, system delays and outages occur.

DB/IQ Package Management (PackMan) helps manage the DevOps chaos by identifying redundant packages, removing them and reorganizing the Db2 Catalog. The result is a cleaner Db2 Catalog that is streamlined for more reliable application performance.

Infotel DB/IQ Package Management for Db2 (PackMan) can help clean and declutter your Db2 Catalog in multiple areas of the SQL programming life cycle.
