C201 | Hands-On: Building AI Systems with IBM Db2
Sunday October 26, 2025 9:00am - 1:00pm WIB
Leibniz 1/2/3
IBM Db2 offers a wide range of AI features, both built-in and external tools, for creating AI systems and solutions. These include over 200 built-in AI stored procedures and tools that work seamlessly with open-source AI ecosystems. In this workshop, participants will explore Db2’s AI support and use a selection of these features to implement practical AI models. The workshop consists of two parts. In the first module, participants will learn how to develop a supervised AI model using Db2’s built-in AI stored procedures. The entire model development and usage will be done using SQL within the database. In the second module, participants will learn how to create a Python model using popular Python packages outside of the database, and then deploy that model back into a Db2 database. By the end of the workshop, participants will have gained fundamental skills and hands-on experience in utilizing these AI capabilities. They will be able to apply these skills to their future AI projects. This workshop is designed to be beginner-friendly and does not require participants to have extensive knowledge in AI. Basic SQL skills and some Python programming skills are sufficient for attending and benefiting from this workshop.

C202 | The Db2 First Responder Workshop
Sunday October 26, 2025 2:00pm - 6:00pm WIB
Leibniz 1/2/3
The Db2 community constantly welcomes new database administrators or application developers that access Db2. One of the reasons - Db2 is known as a robust and reliable database management system and a perfect match for private and public cloud environments. However, sometimes you might face database related issues. The session will cover the first steps in the process of problem determination and problem source identification (PD/PSI). The session gives hands-on examples and practical examples for the strategy and process to encircle and find the problem by asking the right questions and will share best practices for the first occurrence data capture (FODC) tools available for the DBA.

Wednesday October 29, 2025 10:20am - 11:20am WIB
Leibniz 1/2/3
ABS is the one of the core insurance applications used in Allianz insurance entities worldwide running on Db2 on Linux. Because of Allianz's strategy to migrate all systems to cloud where possible, it had to be investigated how to move ABS to the cloud. A First step was to use a lift and shift approach, where an ABS backend was created as an EC2 instance. But the target is to have a Db2 service as native cloud service available that meets the customer specific requirements specially in relation to ABS because currently available SaaS services failed on this. This presentation describes how various challenges have to be addressed to achieve this.

This isn't just another restore tutorial. It's a live-fire tale of encrypted Db2 databases, AWS mounts, and GSK gremlins — all tamed in OpenShift’s wild, wild west. Key elements to weave into the hook (without sounding too dry or overly technical):
* Using GSK commands to manage keystore entries (view, add, delete)
* Pulling encrypted backups from S3 and restoring them to EFS-mounted volumes
* A real-world troubleshooting moment (resolved, with one-liner flavor referencing tech stack)
* Running all of this in a containerized OpenShift environment
