It's a KNOCK OUT! Special guests from Triton Consulting and IBM Canada presented findings from their DB2 LUW versus Oracle Usability study. While you might expect some bias, the methods deployed for the study seem rather objective and mathematically quantified. Host Scott Hayes got a little crazy with the boxing sound effects and startled Julian Stuhler out of his chair, but Jules recovered. Which database is "easier "? Watch and learn...
Quick ThoughtTriton and IBM have provided several links to additional resources and PDFs. Keep reading. You'll find these near the bottom of this post. And, if you've ever wondered which came first, the chicken or the egg, today we asked our studio audience this important question. Considering how smart most database people are, I think we achieved collective wisdom on this important question - just in time for the Easter Holiday. :icon_wink: Get the Download ReplayTo download a recorded replay of Episode #50, right click on the link below and choose "Save As...

An Oracle customer migrated to DB2 LUW, and, despite all the "wonderful " autonomic and automatic things about DB2, e-commerce application performance issues persisted. In just one afternoon, DBI helped this customer reduce database I/O by over 75% which negated the need to procure more hardware. The ROI was instant. If you have migrated, or are thinking about migrating, from Oracle to DB2 LUW, the smart thing to do would be to engage DBI for a Proof of Concept. Your end users won't mind if you cut their response times in half, and your boss won't mind, either, if you reduce hardware and license costs.
