Show Host Klaas Brant Commentary

I have no idea what was wrong on Monday, but for me it was a disaster day. Maybe the stars were aligned incorrect, or my biorhythm was off-scale but nothing seemed to work. To make things worse GoToWebinar had a new release over the weekend and suddenly many people complained that they had audio but no visual. I can tell you, that made me really nervous and because of that this show was not my best. Luckily my presenter, John Campbell has perfect presentation skills. I hope you did not see all the bloopers I made :-o

Now about the major part of the show, planning for a new DB2 release is not always easy, it takes time. You want to do thing right because there is too much at stake. Gathering the right information isn't always easy. You would think that internet is big help but sometimes you just pick-up old and obsolete information or even just rumors. Here at the DB2Night Show we try to give you the most accurate and up-to-date info available. So we thought it would be nice to have the expert on this topic: John Campbell

John Campbell is an engineer from the lab who is closely involved with customers who move to the new release. He works with early adopters of a new release to make sure they get the best support from IBM. In today's show he is telling us about everything you should know when you are planning for a DB2 10 migration. And for the people who are planning a skip migration, John has some extra advice for you.

A message from our sponsor SoftBase

In spite of massive investments of money, time, and resources into critical DB2® for z/OS® projects, most still run late and far over budget. Plus, application reliability is poor in spite of strenuous coding and testing efforts. Managing DB2 test data seems to be a significant bottleneck in many installations.

SoftBase’s products enable DB2 users to code, test, and deploy more reliable DB2 for z/OS applications in a fraction of the time that it takes them now.

DB/IQ-QA™ provides Application Developers advice, recommendations, and standardization that will dramatically accelerate coding of their DB2 SQL Statements

QBase™ enables developers to code and dynamically test SQL statements without executing the entire application.

SoftBase's TestBase™ provides a revolutionary new patented technology for test data management called Slice™ that enables all Application Developers and QA Personnel in a shop to test together within one set of DB2 objects without impacting each others' results.
