Improves disaster recovery processes and offers an efficient CPU cycle optimization

Using BMC Data Management for IMS and DB2 on z/OS has greatly improved our database administration tasks. Although we don't test the database before production, we have experienced benefits in disaster recovery situations and capacity management. For instance, when facing capacity issues during peak transaction times, I've been able to quickly allocate additional resources to ensure smooth operations. This has been crucial, especially during times when the demand surges, such as peak flight hours.

Accessible support with easy upgrades and helpful patch support

The process of upgrading the software is quite easy. For instance, upgrading the Studio is straightforward, especially if done automatically. However, I typically do it manually by downloading the patch and placing it in the dedicated folder before restarting the studio. I have successfully requested the necessary patch from Talend support multiple times to align different studio versions across the team of developers. It was not difficult, and having access to Talend support directly from TNC proved quite beneficial. Our business has been running smoothly for three and a half years.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"I have worked with DB2's great features in the last five years. The IDAA feature transformed the vision of warehousing, business analytics, and big data at my bank. Besides the mainframe, I saw that this solution was evolutionary. It gives real-time information."

"BMC Data Management improved our data recovery process by simplifying it."

"The solution can run on any machine and that is a big advantage."

"The basic tools are easy to pick up and understand."

"The most valuable feature is integration."

"Talend Studio has the ability to connect to almost anything to integrate data from files, databases, web services, etc."

"The most valuable features of the Talend Data Management Platform are the components."

"They're very competitive in terms of performance, which is a good selling point. It has very rich features. It provides a very rich feature set in the application."

"The availability of connectors is great."

"Overall, the management and running environment are very stable, and I would rate it an eight out of ten."

Cons

"One area for improvement with this product could be in providing clearer guidance and tools for disaster recovery planning and execution."

"DB2 is a hard tool to grasp. It's hard for users to learn how to use it. It's not easy to see how it works."

"Once you get past the basic tools, it gets pretty complicated."

"I've had some issues with bugs causing crashes, especially when making changes to the system or with the monthly upgrades to Studio they've introduced."

"The biggest challenge with Talend was its performance."

"We'd like to see more connectors it the future."

"I would like to sync a project and do an upload from that current version, and then from GitLab, be able to download the latest one."

"The solution's memory sometimes bottlenecks and that can be challenging."

"I wonder if, at the same price, the API component could be added, which would be beneficial."

"Including either XML or JSON in the next release would definitely be a good transformation. I'm not sure if Talend has that feature, but it's one of those requirements that we are working around and have to do some parsing of XML so this could make it easier."
