What a Lifelong DB2 Fanatic Sees in MySQL
by Susan Gantner
In my mind, you can't beat our database. It's not only integrated into the operating system, it's also incredibly flexible. You can use SQL to create and access data just like databases on other systems but you can also use the native DDS, RPG, COBOL and other languages with the same data. No other database out there--not even other members of the DB2 family--has that kind of flexibility. It is currently known as DB2 for i, but I think most of us just think of it as the database, which is appropriate because, unlike just about every other system out there, our platform only has one serious option for a database.

Admin Alert: Did You Lose ECS on February 1?
by Joe Hertvik
On February 1, 2010, some i/OS V5R3Mx, V5R4Mx, and V6R1Mx systems lost their ability to call IBM service. On that date, IBM changed some of the Host Names and IP Addresses that i/OS systems use to automatically call service via ECS and ESA. As a result, many iSeries, System i, and Power i systems can no longer automatically contact service unless certain PTFs are installed. Was your system affected? READ MORE >
