iSeries™ Access for Windows^® ODBC performance

See any of the following ODBC performance topics.

• Performance-tuning iSeries Access for Windows ODBC
  A key consideration for ODBC application developers is achieving maximum performance from client/server applications.
• Performance considerations of common end-user tools
  Having an ODBC driver that is optimally tuned is only part of the performance equation. The other part is the tools that are used; whether they are used simply to query the data, or to build complex programs.
• SQL performance
  Good application design includes the efficient use of machine resources. To run in a manner that is acceptable to the end user, an application program must be efficient in operation, and must run with adequate response time.
• ODBC blocked insert statement
  The blocked INSERT statement provides a means to insert multiple rows with a single SQLExecute request. For performance, it provides the one of the best ways to populate a table, at times providing a tenfold performance improvement over the next best method.
• Catalog functions
  Catalog functions return information about the DB2^® UDB for iSeries™ database with which you are working.
• Exit programs
  An exit program is a program to which control is passed from a calling program.
• Stored procedures
  Stored procedures commonly are used in client/server applications, especially in the area of online transaction processing (OLTP), since they can provide performance, transaction-integrity and security benefits.
