| IBM to demo Linux cluster improvements for DB2 |
|---|
Looking to get a leg up on Oracle Corp. and make its open-source database offerings more enterprise-worthy, IBM is boosting the clustering capabilities of its DB2 software for the Linux operating system.
At next week's LinuxWorld Conference and Expo in New York, IBM plans to preview enhancements to the scalability, reliability and integration capabilities of its DB2-based Linux clusters. In particular, there will be a new Linux-based DB2 partition advisor for database administrators who want to automate cluster management operations, according to Gary Schneider, director of Linux business development and information management at IBM.
