Show Host Scott Hayes Commentary
Are you using pureScale? A surprising 7% of our audience was currently using it - other attendees were considering it or just attended to learn for education purposes. Speaking of education, do you have your copy of the DB2 10.1/10.5 Certification Book yet? We featured the authors, Kent Collins and Mohan Saraswatipura, this past February during episodes #148 and #150. See book details on Amazon.com.

A message from our sponsor:
DBI Software
During today's quick 3 minute commercial, DBI demonstrated some performance trend charts that are complete with change indicators plotted on the charts. DBI has been automatically tracking important database change events since V8.2 of DB2. Change events are plotted on trend charts so that you can see the performance consequences of any changes. Trend charts without changes are, at best, merely pretty. Do you want pretty, or do you want clear results?
