Duration 3 Days 18 CPD hours This course is intended for This course is designed for integration developers who configure service policies on IBM© DataPower Gateways. Overview After completing this course, you should be able to: Describe how DataPower gateways are configured Create and configure cryptographic objects Configure Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to and from DataPower gateways Configure a multi-protocol gateway (MPGW) to handle multiple protocols from a single service Configure a service level monitoring (SLM) policy to control message traffic Use logs and probes to troubleshoot services Use patterns to define and deploy new services Configure message transformation and routing by using style sheets (XSL) and GatewayScripts Handle errors in service policies This course teaches you the essential skills that are required to configure, implement, and troubleshoot services that are developed on the IBM© DataPower Gateways (IDG) with firmware version 7.5.0, regardless of use case. The DataPower Gateways allow an enterprise to simplify, accelerate, and enhance the security capabilities of its XML and web services deployments, and extend the capabilities of its service-oriented architecture (SOA) infrastructure. The gateways also extend these capabilities into the JSON, REST, and Mobile application areas. Through a combination of instructor-led lectures and hands-on lab exercises, you learn how to develop and debug services that are implemented on the DataPower gateways. These skills include WebGUI and Blueprint Console navigation, service type selection, basic multi-protocol gateway configuration, creating and using cryptographic objects, and configuring SSL connections. You also learn how to use various problem determination tools such as logs, monitors, and probes, and techniques for testing DataPower services and handling errors. Hands-on exercises give you experience working directly with a DataPower Gateway. The exercises focus on skills such as creating multi-protocol gateways, working with cryptographic and SSL objects, configuring service level monitoring, troubleshooting services, handling errors in a service policy, and deploying a service from a pattern.

Duration 4 Days 24 CPD hours This course is intended for This is an intermediate course for experienced DBAs and technical individuals, with experience on other relational database platforms, who plan, implement, and maintain Db2 11.1 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows databases. These skills can also be utilize to support cloud based databases using Db2 on Cloud or Db2 Hosted environments. Overview Please refer to course overview This course teaches you to perform, basic and advanced, database administrative tasks using Db2 11.1. These tasks include creating and populating databases and implementing a logical design to support recovery requirements. The access strategies selected by the Db2 Optimizer will be examined using the Db2 Explain tools. Various diagnostic methods will be presented, including using various db2pd command options. Students will learn how to implement automatic archival for database logs and how to plan a redirected database restore to relocate either selected table spaces or an entire database. The REBUILD option of RESTORE, which can build a database copy with a subset of the tablespaces, will be discussed. We will also cover using the TRANSPORT option of RESTORE to copy schemas of objects between two Db2 databases. The selection of indexes to improve application performance and the use of SQL statements to track database performance and health will be covered.
