>From the article:

"It's possible, Martin says. "COBOL applications typically are seen in terms of 
data-serving
types of workloads and back-end types of processing, so if we looked at it, we 
wouldn't
necessarily look at COBOL per se, but we would look at in terms of database 
connectivity and
such," she indicates."

As I've been predicting for some time, a DB2 offload engine.  I wonder when 
that idea was
first mooted?

(Answers chiseled on stone tablets to the usual address.)

Another take on DB2 from today's Register:
