OLTP vs. Analytics – Examples
3
OLTP - “Transactional”
Transactional analytics:
Operational BI
Deep analytics: Warehouse / BI
/ OLAP
Withdrawal from a bank account
using an ATM
Approve request to increase credit
line based on credit history and
customer profile
Regular reporting to central bank
– sum of transactions by account
Buying a book at Amazon.com
Propose additional books based
on similar purchases by other
customers
Which books were best-sellers in
Europe over the last 2 months?
Check-In for a flight at the airport
Offer an upgrade based on
frequent flyer history of all
passengers and available seats
Marketing campaign to sell more
tickets in off-peak times
Hand-over manufactured printers
to an oversea-carrier
Optimize shipping by selecting
cheapest and most reliable carrier
on demand
Trend of printers sold in emerging
countries versus established
markets.

Query off-load applicability
IDAA is based on Netezza which supports rich set of SQL and data types
• BI tools such as Cognos have been running on Netezza for years and will run on
IDAA as well
Due to very large number of query types and SQL functions, there are some restrictions.
Here are the key restrictions:
• No static SQL
• Not all DB2 functions, such as HEX, POSITION, SIN, ...
• No user defined functions
• No correlated table expressions or recursive correlated table expressions
• No correlated subquery in the SELECT list
• No UTF-16 and MIXED/DBCS EBCDIC
• No multiple encoding schemes in the same statement
• Not all DB2 special registers: CURRENT PATH, SERVER, SQLID, SCHEMA,
APPLICATION ENCODING SCHEME
• Not all DB2 data types such as LOBs, ROWID, XML.
Note: These restrictions could be lifted in a future release
