Back to School: Database Class

Have you moved from a legacy reporting system to a relational structure and simply "forklifted" your procedures over? Have you wondered if your report request against your relational DBMS is running as efficiently as it can? Find out how you can optimize those requests by taking Reporting Concepts and Efficiencies for Relational Databases (IB 402).

Many of the concepts taught in our reporting classes are generic, meaning they can be applied regardless of the nature of the data source. When you create procedures that will generate reports from relational data sources, there are specifics that the developers need to understand if they are to develop the most efficient procedure possible. These specifics will vary with the RDBMS being used.

The class provides the insight necessary to under-stand the process of reporting from relational data sources along with the tools needed to validate the efficiency of their procedures. We've received feedback from some customers indicating that after taking this class, they've reduced response time from hours to minutes based on techniques discussed in this class.

Following are sample quotes from attendees:

"This class would be helpful to someone who is beginning to write WebFOCUS reports against a relational database. Learning how trace the procedure was especially helpful to us in our environment, as well as how to interpret adapter optimization messages. The concepts discussed assisted us in troubleshooting slow-running reports."

"The class really helped take the mystery out of making WebFOCUS work efficiently against MS SQL."
