Product Overview

EZ-Stats for DB2, now part of EZ-DB2, was designed to copy DB2 catalog statistics, facilitating the creation of realistic test environments. The architecture centered around the EZ-DB2 interface, which served as the primary point of interaction for users. This interface communicated with the DB2 database system on z/OS to retrieve and manage catalog statistics.

The core components included the EZ-DB2 interface, the DB2 database system, and the DB2 catalog, where the statistics were stored. The process involved the EZ-DB2 interface reading the catalog statistics from the production DB2 catalog and writing them to the test environment's DB2 catalog. The communication between the EZ-DB2 interface and the DB2 system utilized standard DB2 protocols.

The EZ-DB2 interface provided administrative capabilities, including user management, configuration of parameters related to the copying process, and monitoring of the process. The EZ-DB2 suite provides a unified toolset for DB2 database management tasks. The product did not expose external APIs.

Security was managed through the EZ-DB2 interface, which supported user authentication and authorization. The EZ-DB2 interface provided monitoring and logging capabilities to track the copying and management of catalog statistics.
