We had a good turnout at the booth, quite a few new faces to the DB2 LUW space. Our survey indicates that most are still on DB2 9.7 with a few on DB2 10 but most are planning on migrating to DB2 10 in the next 6 – 12 months due to the benefits of such features as jump scan and temporal tables. Stay tuned!

Don’t forget to checkout the Big Data track at IDUG in Orlando for the lastest and greatest on Blu Acceleration. Learn how you can accelerate your data with no user indexes required and obtain huge performance improvements through DB2 10.5′s use of the SIMD instruction and columnar data aligned on register boundaries..
Remember, when using the standby as read only, you will want to set the DB2_STANDBY_ISO registry variable to UR as only uncommitted read is allowed on the STANDBY or else you will have to set the isolation level for each application..That’s the view from here…
Good paper on the research leading up to database use of the SIMD instruction for data stored columnwise…
