Excellent DBMS
What do you like best about the product?
Excellent database to handle high volume of data, recommended for datawarehouse.
What do you dislike about the product?
DB2 for Zos is focused on mainframe equipment, making it difficult for the installation of alternative infrastructure to the data center in the case of having a contingency center.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The partitioning of 21 alternative centers was resolved through the DB2, the management of roles and permissions for the accesses to the objects with the implementation of Rc / secure.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Define the project very well if the DB2 database manager is required since it could be expensive to maintain the infrastructure depending on the installation and configuration.

DBA ADMNISTRATOR IN DB2
What do you like best about the product?
I have worked in DB2 technology since 1996. I have made a lot of effort to understand what it can offer the user, its automatic applications, and its security, its integrity and the backup and recovery of its data. It is a robust and fully tested technology. Very reliable for any volume of data. Preferably the transactional ones. Excellent administrator of relational tables and its standard SQL. I recommend it.

In my personal experience, DB2 is very demanded by its utilities. Many commands and references of very nebulous errors. It requires a lot of computing power, it is still architecture for medium and large computing environments.

DB2 Review
What do you like best about the product?
Really strong DB engine and most probably one of the big 3... stable version running on Linux family can put some comfort in the organization using it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Windows versions or if you pretend to get away of the major standard implementations and best practices you can still do it but not recommended to avoid a lot of scripting...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not necessarily problems were resolved but the stability and performance were pretty good and what expected. From previous old version until now IBM has done a very good job!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Define clearly evaluation criteria when choosing a strategic DB engine.
