Does anyone on here have much experience in deploying DB2? If so, with which platforms are you working on?
We've been running Informix on a Sun E3500 for a number of years now (Well, i've only been in this job two months, but they have), and they have now decided to move to DB2. Originally i got excited by the 4way Opteron based Sun Fire V40z servers running Linux, after i had read much hype about the Opterons and HyperTransport ( http://www.samag.com/documents/s=9408/sam0411b/0411b.htm ), but i still feel sticking with a comparable performance Sun server running Solaris would be better. Then again, the DB administrator after reading some hype was wanting to go the IBM hardware route running Linux, which to me seems too much of a step away. Any first hand experiences much appreciated. cheers, thorsten -----------------------------------------------------------------------| Highpoint Lowlife Records http://www.highpointlowlife.com/ bitmapped indie-electronic goodness since '01 ------------------------| -----------------------------------------------------------------------| _______________________________________________ Bits mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sugoi.org/mailman/listinfo/bits
