Show Host Scott Hayes Commentary

WOW! I think Maria's talk today was one of the best on DB2 pureScale that I've ever seen. Maria covered everything important - from the hardware required, to installation commands and advice, configuration, monitoring, and more. While certainly DB2 pureScale is topic worthy of multi-day classes, Maria's presentation today was a crammer! I won't be surprised if replays of today's show make our list of the Top 10 2012 most popular downloads!

When DB2 pureScale was first announced, we had Matt Huras, IBM, as our special guest on Episode #4 of The DB2Night Show™. To this day, it remains one of our most popular replay downloads because Matt did an awesome job of explaining the technical details of pureScale technology. In fact, THIS SHOW REPLAY has been downloaded over 8,000 times!

PS- Don't fast forward through today's quick commercial from DBI. It's educational!
