Show Host Scott Hayes CommentaryDarn! I imagine that Citrix Corporation has a lot of unhappy customers today! I apologize for the technical difficulties. We've never experienced a widespread problem like this before, and I hope we never will again. First and foremost, our goal with The DB2Night Show is to provide valuable DB2 education to the DB2 community. We'll keep trying! Technical challenges aside, we still had a live studio audience and the majority of our finalists were able to connect. Here's a brief review of our finalists and their topics: - Ember, Tips for finding problem SQL from the Package Cache
- Mohankumar, "How DB2 10.1 changed the Data Warehouse terminology from ETL to ETI "
- Eric, How to Analyze and Improve SQL execution time (with db2batch). Eric was unable to connect to GoToWebinar. CLICK HERE to get a PDF of Eric's presentation.
- Chris, "Counting Calories " Storage Management Procedures and Tables in DB2 to locate, report, and trend table, tablespace, and database growth
- Renu, How I successfully designed, implemented, and monitored IBM InfoSphere Event Publisher
- Mikko, Performance Management with Primary Key Design. Mikko was unable to connect to GoToWebinar. CLICK HERE to get Mikko's presentation (PDF format).

For those finalists that were unable to connect today, we've provided links to their presentations above, if available. When casting your votes, please give these finalists earnest consideration.Survey and VotingDue to GoToWebinar® limitations for repeating webinars, we need to offer our post-show audience survey via Survey Monkey.

For convenience, the survey is embedded below, at the bottom of this replay blog. After you complete the survey, it will close automatically. Only one entry per computer is allowed.
