Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Oracle, SAP and others in Relational Databases Tools."The most valuable feature of this solution is the integration with other IBM products."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Db2 Database has given us good results since we have started to use it. We predominantly use IBM hardware, and this is one of the reasons why we started to use Db2 Database. Db2 Database has a very good HADR capability. High availability resilience is also good in this solution. It also has pureScale, which allows you to upgrade one node to get very good and high-level resilience. If you are using a database on five nodes, you can take one node down, upgrade that, and let that node up. You can then bring the second node down, upgrade that, and so on."
"It's easy to search and extract data from the warehouse using queries."
"Reliable, robust with great features."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its compatibility with IBM Power Systems."
"It's a very mature product."
"Your iOS, your throughputs, your performance cycles, you cannot touch it with Microsoft or with Oracle scalability-wise. That is far and away the most scalable systems and the highest performing systems of the set of them."
"It has very amazing smart grid query feature for very fast aggregate queries across millions of rows"
"The problem with this environment is that any software that you install is very costly because there are no free tools for this environment."
"The solution no longer supports POWER8."
"The tool is not easy to use. It needs to improve scale computing so that the tool can be scaled vertically. The product needs to enhance pre-engine optimization and it needs to be more efficient in completing queries. The documentation should be updated to include different scenarios of deployment."
"The price should be lower."
"Also, the website could be more intuitive. I didn't find it easy to find documentation on the website."
"They should develop its containerized version."
"The initial set up was complex."
"Their view of it is they're maintaining it, they're continuing to upgrade it, they're continuing to grow it, however, they don't go out and try and sell that as an architectural solution the way they do Linux and Unix."
"Only the data from the columns that reached 2GB will actually decrease. Other columns below 2GB in size do not leave the disk."
