WebSphere z/<strong>OS</strong> - <strong>DB2</strong> <strong>for</strong> z/<strong>OS</strong> V8 - Servlet workload<br />

WebSphere AIX - <strong>DB2</strong> <strong>for</strong> z/<strong>OS</strong> V8<br />

For this configuration tests were run with the Type 4 Driver as the Type 2 Driver is a local<br />

driver. With the Type 2 Driver you need something in the middle and this “thing in the middle”<br />

is <strong>DB2</strong> Connect. With the Type 4 Driver and WAS, we do not need <strong>DB2</strong> Connect with its<br />

characteristics of connection pooling and concentrator because WAS provides the same<br />

functionality.<br />

JDBC .app/<strong>DB2</strong> Connect vs. JCC Type 4 - Servlet workload<br />

As shown in Figure 7-10, JCC Type 4 outper<strong>for</strong>ms the .app/<strong>DB2</strong> Connect with 10% increased<br />

throughput on WebSphere V5 AIX. On <strong>DB2</strong> <strong>for</strong> z/<strong>OS</strong> the improvement is marginal.<br />
