Overall Satisfaction with DB2
It is used for reporting, analytics and also for critical clinical applications.
- Reporting using DPF.
- Purescale for scalable and highly available critical applications.
- Cost effective solution compared to other vendors.
- Optimizer - sometimes we need to force the right access plan.
- Support staff needs to engage more effectively by using WebEx/phone instead of emails.
- More compatible functions to ease migration from other platforms.
- Positive returns by retired legacy EMRs
DB2 is more complicated to administer than Sybase, but it also provides many more features for applications.
