Abstract
Embark on an exploratory session designed to demystify the Data Definition Language (DDL) within the context of IBM’s Information Management System (IMS). This session is meticulously crafted for individuals without prior experience in DDL, aiming to illuminate the unique aspects of DDL as applied to IMS databases. Participants will gain valuable insights into the foundational structures of IMS DDL, understand how to define databases and segments, and learn the syntax that governs the creation and manipulation of IMS database hierarchies. By the end of this session, attendees will be equipped with the knowledge to confidently navigate the IMS-specific DDL, laying a solid groundwork for future endeavors in database management.
Speaker Bio
I joined CA Technologies (which was acquired by Broadcom in 2018) in 2012 as an Associate Software Engineer and I was assigned to the CA ACF2 security product. A year later I was re-assigned to CA Database Management Solutions for IMS for z/OS (IMS Tools). Nowadays, I am still working in the CA IMS Tools team as a Staff Software Engineer, involved in new development and sustaining work across the whole CA IMS Tools portfolio.
