Scott Hayes is a well known DB2 LUW performance and security expert. He is a regular speaker at International DB2, ISACA, and ISSA User Group meetings, as well as IBM DB2/Data Management conferences. Scott has authored several published articles on DB2 LUW performance, security, and auditing, is an IBM DB2 GOLD Consultant (an elite, exclusive group of IBM recognized top DB2 advocates), has obtained Advanced IBM DB2 Certifications, and is widely regarded by the worldwide DB2 community as the top performance security expert for DB2 on distributed (UNIX, Linux, and Windows) platforms. Scott graduated from SUNY Geneseo with a Management Science Major and Computer Science Minor, and – as he was recently reminded during a conference presentation - he is , not was, an Eagle Scout .
Scott started Database-GUYS Inc (DGI) in May of 1998 as a DB2 UDB performance consulting company. As clients quickly embraced his methods, metrics, techniques, teachings, and tools, DGI was transformed into a software company providing best of breed tools (Wise-GUY™, Space-GUY™, Pool-GUY™, SQL-GUY™, Connection-MINER™, and Flight Deck for DB2 UDB – now owned by BMC Software) and consulting services for DB2 UDB. This company was sold to BMC Software on June 20, 2003.
During his two year tenure at BMC Software, Scott was Director of Product Marketing and continued to provide field consulting services, training, education, and sales assistance for BMC customers. Scott also contributed ideas to the BMC Software development team to ensure that SmartDBA® for DB2 UDB had valuable features and functions.
In July 2005, Scott started Database-Brothers Inc (DBI) to enable him to optimally serve the DB2 UDB and Oracle database communities with deeply focused attention. And, as he'll tell you at conferences, he likes signing his own expense reports too.
