In
the spring of 2005, CCA will deliver another major
release of Model 204: Version 6.1 (V6R1). This exciting
new version greatly expands the capabilities of Model
204 and opens new doors to applications that are faster,
more powerful, and more integrated than ever before.
It further emphasizes the fact that Model 204 is not
just a database management system, but rather a robust,
agile, modern business tool that can give your enterprise
competitive advantage in today’s highly-connected
world.
In
this session, Chris will highlight the new features
in V6R1 that collectively build upon Model 204’s
four major areas of strength: its scalability, availability,
flexibility, and extensibility. Details of each new
feature will be provided in other sessions throughout
the symposium.

Model
204 V6R1 will be commercially available in Spring
2005. It is a major release with many new features
that will benefit all customers. In addition to these
features, performance continues to improve with no
changes required to parameters, files or UL applications.
Jim will present results from the TPCB Benchmark,
which show how these performance improvements translate
into reduced CPU consumption and higher transaction
throughput across the last six releases of Model 204.
Jim will highlight additional performance options
of V6R1, which can be enabled through changes to JCL
or new parameter settings in CCAIN, to further maximize
Model 204 efficiency and reduce operating costs.
