14 High-Function Business Intelligence in e-business
1.3.2 Statistics, analytic and OLAP functions
A number of SQL extensions have been implemented in DB2 UDB in support of
key statistics, analytic and OLAP functions as described earlier, and this list is
expected to grow over time.
Application developers and tool vendors who take advantage of DB2 UDBs SQL
extensions can be expected to achieve significant performance benefits thus
obtaining greater throughput and scalability, and a competitive edge.
In this book we discuss the various statistics, analytic, and OLAP functions
supported in DB2 UDB, and provide examples of their usage in real world
business scenarios.
Important: The actual performance benefits of using this functionality will
depend upon an organizations unique workload and the resources available.
