Abstract
Analytics projects mainly draw on mainframe-based transactional data. However, in the last two decades, analytics solutions have been deployed as departmental applications, based on very specific business needs of the requesting department.
This IBM® Redbooks® Solution Guide describes how IBM z13™ can help organizations maximize their current IT investments while adding functionality and improved price and performance with z13 over IBM zEnterprise® EC12 (zEC12. With new z13 features, applications can gain increased throughput for distributed operational business intelligence (BI) and IBM DB2® query workloads, thus saving money in hardware, software, and labor.

This IBM® Redbooks® Solution Guide describes how IBM z13™ can help organizations maximize their current IT investments while adding functionality and improved price and performance with z13 over IBM zEnterprise® EC12 (zEC12). With new z13 features, applications can gain increased throughput for distributed operational business intelligence (BI) and IBM DB2® query workloads, thus saving money in hardware, software, and labor. The IBM z Systems™ server excels as custodian of the data model, providing an accurate, secure, single copy of information that ensures veracity of the data for reliable analytics and provides centralized control over decision information (see Figure 1).
