Learn How Digital Integration Hubs Power Digital Transformations on the IBM Z Platform
Mythili Venkatakrishnan, IBM Distinguished Engineer, will discuss increasing market pressures in key industries such as banking which are leading Z platform users to leverage Digital Integration Hubs for flexible information flow between core transactional systems and hybrid cloud environments. Digital Integration Hubs efficiently integrated with systems of record can significantly accelerate digital transformation journeys and deliver reduced complexity, high throughput, and low latency. In addition, Digital Integration Hubs aligned with transactional environments can provide added agility for event-based architectures across the enterprise.
Nikita Ivanov, CTO of GridGain Systems, will discuss the vital role of in-memory data grids within Digital Integration Hubs. He will cover key features of GridGain for z/OS such as ANSI-99 SQL and key-value APIs, massively parallel processing, and support for RDMBS, NoSQL, Hadoop, SaaS and streaming data sources.
By the end of this webinar you will understand the potential of Digital Integration Hubs on the Z Platform to power digital transformations using data from transactional, data lake, and other data sources. You will also understand the role of in-memory data grids within Digital Integration Hubs and some ways in which companies have deployed these solutions to increase customer visibility, drive revenues, and reduce costs.
