IDAA Request for an "analytics procedure package"

This is request for an "analytics procedure package" for the DB2 Analytics accelerator that is similar to the "IBM Netezza Analytics stored procedure package" and provides remote procedure capabilities. One of the first procedure within that this package needs to requested Netezza hash function. This "remote procedures" would have a Stored Procedure equivalent in DB2 zOS (let's assume: SYSPROC.ACCEL_REMOTE_HASH ) that can be called on AoTs (accelerator only tables). If this is available, we could feed the AOT as today is done with an INSERT INTO AoT from (SELECT .... FROM accelerated-table). In the SELECT .... FROM accelerated-table we could then call in DB2 zOS the SYSPROC.ACCEL_REMOTE_HASH stored procedure to calculate a hash value of the AoT table row.
