Abstract
This document describes the improvements that have been made in InfoSphere Data Architect 9.1.1.
Content
Rational support:
InfoSphere Data Architect is now integrated with Rational Design Management. You can publish, view, and search data models on the Rational Design Management server.
Enhanced database support:
Logical Data Model enhancements:
In logical data models, you can now import other logical data models or domain data models to reuse the elements defined in them.
Cross-model references reporting support:
In a model, you can list referenced data models and report cross-model references if they are unresolved.
Compare and synchronization enhancements:
You can pair two objects in the Compare editor so that the pairing will persist in future comparison sessions.
Model Analysis enhancements:
There is a new rule for model analysis to detect orphan elements.
Diagramming enhancements:
You can add footers and headers when you print diagrams.
Transformation enhancements:
On DB2 for z/OS, when you transform a logical data model to a physical data model, you can now specify a default encoding scheme (EBCDIC or UNICODE) for tables.
Enhanced XML modeling support:
You can create XML indexes for XML attributes and columns.
InfoSphere Data Architect is now integrated with Rational Design Management. You can publish, view, and search data models on the Rational Design Management server.
Enhanced database support:
- IBM InfoSphere BigInsights: Objects can now be created, modeled, and reverse-engineered in BigInsights 2.1 BigSQL databases.
- DB2 for iSeries: You can create field procedures and Encoded Vector Indexes (EVI). Array User-Defined Types (UDTs) are now supported.
- PostgreSQL: Objects can now be created, modeled, and reverse-engineered in PostgreSQL 8.x and 9.x databases.
- Netezza: Multiple schemas are now allowed for the Netezza version 7.0.3+ data server.
- Informix: You can create data models for, and work with, Informix version 12.1 databases.
- Oracle:
- You can set the CACHE and ORDER attributes for the SEQUENCE object.
- You can define a name pattern for the SEQUENCE object in the preferences setting during transformation.
- You can specify the storage format for the XMLType column.
- SQL Server:
- You can create data models for, and work with, SQL Server 2012 databases.
- You can set extended properties for database objects.
- Derby: You can create data models for, and work with, Derby version 10.5 and 10.8 databases.
