Austin, Texas USA - (December 11, 2013)

DBI Software, an industry leading IBM DB2 LUW performance tools
provider, announces a new multi-faceted partnership with Hewlett-Packard
Company (NYSE: HPQ). This partnership pairs DBI's revolutionary database
monitoring, tuning, and trending tools with HP's outstanding customer
relationships to bring a truly powerful DB2 database support solution to
the market. Under this partnership, HP will offer DBI's tools as part
of its managed services customer outsourcing agreements to accelerate
value for HP clients and, for non-outsourced clients, HP will be a DBI
authorized reseller.
Russ Harrison, DBA Manager for HP, commented "Working with DBI is a terrific
fit for HP. The DBI tools for IBM DB2 LUW install quickly and easily, and
our team members are able to achieve fantastic DB2 performance results for
our clients very quickly. DBI's advanced analytics and smart workflows
give us not only productivity gains, but also help us deliver great value
for our clients." Mr. Harrison added "There are night and day differences
between DBI tools and other tools in the market. We're excited to be
partnering with an organization that is so highly respected in the DB2 community."
Scott Hayes, President & Founder of DBI, an IBM DB2 GOLD Consultant
and Information Management Champion, responded "Too often, many consultants
and service providers are keen to work with scripts, free tools, or tools
provided by the database vendor, thus essentially doing DB2 tuning by hand,
without the best tools for the job, all the while billing clients for more
hours and delivering sub-optimal results. I really admire HP's foresight,
leadership, and integrity, and I'm excited about the great results that HP
will be able to deliver to their worldwide clients."
Jason Paull, DBI CEO, contributed "The DBI pureFeat™ Performance Management
Suite of tools for IBM DB2 LUW implement and automate a unique performance
tuning methodology that Mr. Hayes has been teaching at IDUG conferences for
many years. It's not uncommon for a DBI customer to be able to reduce CPU
utilization by 25-60% within hours of installation, while concurrently significantly
improving application response times. Under this partnership, HP will be able
to easily demonstrate the value it delivers to its clients with trend charts
and comparison reports. And, DBI's smart quality of service alerts will help
HP team members be even more proactive in their services delivery."
