SQL/MX: THE NEWS
32
PL/MX: WHY DO WE NEED IT?
• Extension of SQL with data manipulation, conditional checking, looping, branching, …
• Natural affinity with the SQL language• Secure sandbox• Potentially reduces network traffic and allow faster execution• OS portability (Runs in a VM)• Easier learning for DBAs than Java object oriented programming• Also provides capability to create User Defined Functions• Full storage and governance with the RDBMS
- Use cases- Data transformation such as in ETL - Reports- Restricted access (i.e. No need to give access to all tables)- Data maintenance: i.e. data cleansing
Benefits
PL/MX intent is to be compatible with Oracle PL/SQL. This allows
to significantly reduce the porting effort when migration an
application from Oracle to SQL/MX
Migrations

DEVOPS TOOLS FOR CONTINUOUS INTEGRATION AND BEYOND
35
Major Software Development Methodologies CharacteristicsFIRST STEP: TRY TO SPEED UP THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
Traditional/Waterfall Agile
Cookbook methodology, rigid, plan-centric, plan-driven, very controlled
Fluid, fast-moving
Document-heavy Documentation is valued less than working software, is completed in a just-in-time manner when needed
Change resistance Team works through problems *when* they occur
Communication from the top down Communication between all team members
Customers provide original requirements, but then no input, held at arms length
Customers closely involved throughout process
Analysis and design phases are expensive Not much pre-analysis and design. Daily standup meetings to discuss work and roadblocks
Deliverables are at the very end of the process Incremental delivery, frequent small releases ~30 days
36
DEVOPS SUMMARY
•DevOps and NonStop go together very well•Use key practices and tools like with any other platform•Best practice for Jenkins is Master-Agent architecture•Everything is available today – so get started…•The Advanced Technology Center can help! We offer
• Modernization workshops• NSDEE workshops• Consulting practice

HARDWARE REFERENCE ARCHITECTURE FOR VIRTUALIZED NONSTOP
39
WHICH HARDWARE IS CERTIFIED FOR VIRTUALIZED NONSTOP?• HPE does not “certify” any hardware make or model as “Virtualized
NonStop qualified”• Any industry standard hardware can run vNS provided:
• It is qualified for or compatible with VMware vSphere• Servers are based on Intel Xeon family• Servers have at least one ConnectX-4 or ConnectX-4Lx Mellanox NIC• Servers hosting IP vCLIMs have at least two 10 GbE NICs based on Intel
X710 or Cavium 57810S processors• Storage devices support block level storage
• Virtualized NonStop run as a collection of VMs on the servers, connected over redundant 25/40/50 100 GbE networks
• Distribution of vNS VMs should comply with a set of rules• Refer to the Hardware architecture guide for HPE Virtualized
NonStop on VMware for more information
The right question to ask: “Can I build a vNS compliant hardware design based on xyz products?”

• Get a reference BoM (Bill of Materials) from your HPE NonStop account
• Modify to meet your enterprise IT requirements

A NOTE ON VIRTUALIZED NONSTOP ON SYNERGY
•HPE Synergy is a hardware platform that provides “composability” features
•Key features• API based interface to define, provision and
deploy hardware resources required for a software workload
• Ability to dynamically adapt the hardware footprint in step with the workload requirement
• Agility to create, adapt and tear down the hardware resources based on workload needs
• Create and manage a repository of software image gold masters
• Composability appliance built using the foundation of HPE OneView
45
CAN A VNS COMPLIANT SYNERGY SOLUTION BE BUILT?
•Yes – HPE Synergy portfolio offers hardware parts required by vNS
•However:• NonStop systems are built with availability and scalability as the
key design goals• NonStop supports agility of resource assignment that do not
interfere with the above goals•vNS deployment tool uses VMware vCenter® for VM
deployment• Requires hardware resources for vNS to be provisioned by the
Synergy Composer offline.•NonStop supplies the golden images for system deployment
which need to be hosted from the vCenter.
