Great performance but little documentation on the internet

  • June 25, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Great integration with all IBM product family, but i can't find documentation on the internet to face any problem during the development of any solution, DB2 distributes and remembers the location of each track where the information is located. In the context of a long database, this partitioning system makes administration much easier to manage than a non-partitioned database of the same size, it is very strong database for high availabilty system or web applications, it security system is quite robust but this is more secure
What do you dislike about the product?
Little information and documentation to face any problem
The hardware used influences the choice
In large systems the most used base is DB2 since it runs on different operating platforms, but in reality, in most cases the decision to opt for software of this nature is a corporate one.
Price is quite high when compared with other databases. Db2 don't provide user friendly and easier GUI to manage the database, db2 should take this into account and improve the tools to manage the database, they could take features from their competitors
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
High performance applications, High availability
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The heterogeneous replication technology in SQL Server enables automatic publication of data to systems other than SQL Server, including DB2.

Not functional on EC2 Instance type t2.micro

  • June 23, 2020
  • Review verified by AWS Marketplace

When you use this image in combination with an EC2 Instance type t2.micro, the resulting instance is not functional :

$ db2 connect to sample
SQL1084C The database manager failed to allocate shared memory because an
operating system kernel memory limit has been reached. SQLSTATE=57019
$

It becomes functional from the t2.small EC2 Instance type onwards.

Db2 uses

  • June 22, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Using SQL to interrogate a database is very helpful. I also find actually looking at specific tables helpful in finding information. Linking several tables in SQL can save a lot of time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unable to access to specific tables without authorization, even in a test environment!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Checking specific details of a particular record and linking that information through the table structure can be very helpful. Benefits are being able to get a clear picture of a particular record in establishing where data corruption be found.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Need a lot of patience, but the results can be well worth it.

We didn't face any issues while working with DB2.

  • June 22, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's fast and stable. If you know the little differences then it's a good choice for you.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's hard to find someone who really knows and use it nowadays.
Maybe because lack of the company permission but I didn't use 3rd party software to manage the database and sometimes challenging to write complex queries from scratch.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All flat rolled products production data go there, so basically the problem we solved with DB2 is the whole production from A to Z.
We were be able to track the changes easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I have no idea about the price, but if it's not an issue for you then DB2 can be a great choice.
