- 8. Information Management & Business Analytics April 3rd 2014 © 2013 IBM Corporation8 Benefits of Cognos BI and DB2 with BLU Acceleration 18X Faster Cube Loading1 provides more timely information – Can refresh cubes more often – In one test, 1TB dynamic cube load took around 9.5 hours without BLU Acceleration and 30 min with BLU. 14X Faster Click Through Performance2 – More data in memory to improve performance of detailed query drill-downs – When data not found in Cognos dynamic cube, system looks for the data in BLU Acceleration table – also in memory – Result is significant performance improvements Storage savings – Use of actionable compression – use data in compressed format – BLU Acceleration requires less database objects like indexes and MQTs that can often take up considerable amounts of space even when compressed Simplicity – BLU Acceleration tables don’t need indexes or MQTs that have to be created and/or tuned – Just create the table, load data and run reports – Tools recommend which tables should be converted to BLU for maximum performance 1. To fill the Cognos Dynamic Cube aggregate cache, we saw an 18X improvement between DB2 10.5 and 10.1. We went from 9.5 hours to load the cache using DB2 10.1 compared with less than 30 minutes to load the cache using DB2 10.5 with BLU acceleration. 2. To further understand the benefits of using BLU acceleration with Cognos Dynamic Cubes, we isolated Cognos report queries against DB2 10.5 and DB2 10.1. These queries are examples of the SQL that would be run when a report has to query the database directly, rather than leveraging the in-memory aggregate cache. On average, the report query workload showed a 10x improvement. From 100 seconds to 10 seconds. *Performance is based on measurements and projections using standard IBM benchmarks in a controlled environment. The actual throughput or performance that any user will experience will vary depending upon many factors, including considerations such as the amount of multiprogramming in the user's job stream, the I/O configuration, the storage configuration, and the workload processed. Therefore, no assurance can be given that an individual user will achieve results similar to those stated here.
