Show Host Scott Hayes Commentary
This just might be the most fun and informative show we've ever had! Don't miss a minute of it! I am proud of all of our contestants and finalists! You are all heroes for helping to grow the DB2 community! 100% of our studio audience learned something! And, even our judges all confessed to having learned some new things!
It's in the rules that we can change the rules, so we did! Today we allowed our judges to save TWO Finalists instead of just one. They saved Ian and Ken, so we'll have six amazing presenters on our GRAND FINALE show 28th March. Have you registered yet?
We will use DB2 community voting to determine our Top 3 "safe" Finalists. Of the bottom 3 finalists, our judges will have discretion to "save" up to 2 finalists. On or after March 28th, the DB2 community will choose from the remaining finalists to determine 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners.
@ember_crooks continues to do an AWESOME job of blogging about DB2's GOT TALENT 2014 at db2commerce.com and I'm very thankful for all of the details she is providing! I think I'll buy her some beverages at IDUG - water is her favorite, and you've got to drink a lot of it in Phoenix to stay hydrated.
DB2's GOT TALENT 2014
Top 7 Finalists and their Topics
Here's a quick list covering what you can learn about from today's show. It's the end of the contest for Raja - he didn't get enough votes to be in our Top 4 and our judges did not "save" him for our March 28th show. Therefore, you will be voting for 6 finalists today.
- Ian, DB2 LUW - I KYSS YOU (Keep Your Storage Simple) - learn AIX commands and I/O parallelism!
- Ken, DB2 LUW - "Storage Wars: Behind the Iron Curtain or Dance of the 7 veils"
- Raja, DB2 LUW - BLU defies Gravity!
- Mariana, DB2 LUW - BLU Acceleration and storage advantages
- Prasad, DB2 LUW - Multi-Temperature Storage Management
- Saurabh, DB2 LUW - The db2relocatedb Tool
- Michael, DB2 LUW - Automatic Storage (AST): Tips and Tricks
When voting for your favorites, please consider the technical value and professionalism of the presentations. Also consider comments from our esteemed judges. Not only are we sharing great DB2 advice via this contest, but we are also nurturing future great presenters and leaders within our DB2 community! You must vote for at least two finalists, but you can, and should, vote for more if you would like to see these professionals advance through the contest!
