DB2 is the tried and true database.

What do you like best about the product?
When it is administered well, DB2 is lightening fast with even very very large tables and retrieval of your data is very easy from any programming language with the familiar and intuitive SAL language.
What do you dislike about the product?
When it has not been architected and maintained well, data retrieval can be very difficult. It is really only as good as the DBAs make it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have some tables with extraordinary amounts of data that are also growing bigger allbthe time. DB2 gives us the abiliry to pull from that data pool with subsecond response times.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Stick with one platform. I am working in a shop now where we have twobdatabase platforms. It's unnecessary and just makes things that much more difficult. Keep to one. If you switch, switch completely, not halfway.
