We're helping so many organizations save cash, cut expenses, and improve performance this week that we need to postpone announcing the IBM IOD 2008 Free Gas Winner until Monday 10 November 2008. We apologize for the delay, but we think you'll agree that rescuing our economy one customer at a time takes higher priority. Meanwhile, the US mint is investigating DBI - rumor has it we are printing cash for our customers. Well, we figure if the US Government can bail out organizations in distress, then why shouldn't we help out too?

Best regards,
Scott

And things are heating up at DBI too. Hundreds of BMC SmartDBA, DBXray, SQL Explorer, and Space Manager customers have begun their migration to DBI's replacement upgrade products, while still several new customers are achieving performance successes that they previously had no idea were possible.

Since it is too hot outside, our development team has been working overtime to create and deliver updates to DBI's Brother-Panther Collector, plus Design Advisor integration enhancements and patches. The updated Collector is much more efficient and uses less CPU - registered users can download this now.

During the next few weeks, DBI will be releasing a new product that addresses several customer and market requirements. We're quite excited about it, but it is too soon to spoil the surprise. Later this fall, DBI will be working on enhancements, and new platform and OS support, for our Oracle performance products, as well as continuing progress on Brother-RAID™.

In cooperation with IDUG, DBI is hosting DB2 LUW Performance Webinars later this month for the Asia/Pacific region, and again in September and October for North, Central, and South America, plus Europe. You can also find DBI at Oracle Open World and IBM Information on Demand. Check our Events page for details.

That's a quick DBI update for now. Stop back and visit again soon.

Cheers,
Scott
