An excellent database, but difficult to study...

  • July 20, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is a robust, reliable database designed to support large workloads.
What do you dislike about the product?
Extremely difficult to learn. All companies I've met that use DB2 use it in Mainframe environments, which is practically impossible to replicate on a small scale to study. And all training I've seen for DB2+Mainframe, are absurdly expensive, because the professional who can teach is expensive and the environment to study too. That's why I see few professionals working with this technology. To be honest, I don't remember any DBA my age who paid to learn DB2; the few I met, already worked in a company and received the training.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The last project I worked on directly with DB2 was in 2011. As I couldn't learn the technology, I focused my studies on competing databases such as Oracle and MSSQL.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You have to calculate very well the financial cost of using IBM. When I had access to the costs, compared to Oracle and MSSQL, it was the highest.
Whether in licenses, hardware and especially professionals.

Great for IBM integrated software

  • June 14, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The transaction speeds are high and it is good for targeting ibm specific systems, however, is outdated and less flexible than newer offerings in the market.
What do you dislike about the product?
Less scalable for more modern apps, which is why most people are going away from traditional rdbms.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Java applications use this for the backend data in legacy applications. Helps with generic functionality and workflows.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would steer towards oracle or MySQL for traditional relational DB systems, and consider db2 a little outdated.
